CYY 25 Band of the Day-DISTURBED We had to include David and the guys for CYY 25. They have always brought it LOUD to CYY. And we have probably done more CYY shows with Disturbed than any other band in CYY history. In the 20 years the band has been coming to Maine, we've done ELEVEN shows with them.

As we celebrate Pearl Jam day on WCYY as part of CYY 25, we have to acknowledge the one and only time PJ ever came to Maine. The Dennis Rodman thing? Yeah, that's because of a close friendship between Eddie and Dennis. Rodman would continue to show up at Pearl Jam shows from time to time That evening, the NBA star took to the stage during "Alive," fed Eddie some wine, and let Eddie ride him around on piggyback. You know, just another typical Thursday night in Augusta.

It's LINKIN PARK day for CYY 25. We're digging deep into the biggest CYY bands of the past 25 years. Pretty cool that Portland actually has a Lincoln Park, so we have to do one of our CYY faves...THE Linkin Park. LP made it to Portland one time in August of 2001 and it was one of the greatest Rock lineups to ever play Portland. We called it CYY Summercamp "Day Off Fest" and it included a bunch of bands that were on Ozzfest that year. On their 'day off" we talked them into coming to play for us at the Cumberland County Civic Center.

Smashing Pumpkins are today's CYY 25 Band of the Day. We're celebrating our 25 years as Portland's Alternative Rock Station with 25 great bands that ARE CYY. The Pumpkins have been here a few times over the years. In fact, you can go back to PRE-CYY days when the band came to a club called "Bad Habits" back in 1991. Wayyyyy early on. The band played here in 1996 at the Civic Center and in 2012 at the State Theatre. We brought them to town for an autograph session back in 2000! It was at Bull Moose in the Old Port. Hundreds of CYY freaks showed up for that one to meet the band. And it was really cool when the then-Mayor of Portland, Nick Mavodones gave the band the Key to the City.

CYY is 25 and we are hauling out all kinds of goodies for you! We found this great live performance of "We Don't Have to Look Back Now" from our friends, Puddle of Mudd. Wes and the boys were in town for a show back in 2008 and swung by the CYY Studios to say hi. Of course, we like nothing better than packing as many human beings into our little studio, just to see what happens. It's been Portland's Musical Clubhouse for 25 years!
