When Martin Bandyke started in radio on February 21, 1983, he was a twenty-eight-year-old rock drummer and an import record buyer at Dearborn Music. Three decades later, Bandyke is no longer a drummer or a record buyer, but he's still on the air--amazing longevity in modern radio, where careers are measured in years, not decades.
