Name Reverend Dan Buhler
About The first time the future Reverend Dan hit the airwaves was in 1972, when he appeared on the Top-40 stalwart KKDJ, making an on-air request. The last time was probably a few days ago, hosting the award-winning radio program Music for Nimrods, which he proudly calls "America's Only Rock & Roll Radio Show". Reflecting that description, inspired by the legendary rock magazine Creem, Dan's show does in fact celebrate music with a similar jittery Creem-like crackle, showcasing those moments when Rock & Roll becomes intoxicating, unpredictable and empowering. Rock & Roll is all about the attitude, says the good Reverend, which explains why his playlists are as likely to include such atypical Rock & Rollers as James Brown, Johnny Cash and Raymond Scott as well as the Rolling Stones, the Ramones and the Stooges. His is a show that equally pleases both kinds of Nimrods: the discerning Rock & Roll aficionado AND the hoodlum partygoer on the business end of a vodka luge.

In 1996 at KPFK in Los Angeles, he created Music For Nimrods, a radio celebration of pure Rock & Roll in its many dissimilar styles. In 2000, the program was invited to join the lineup at the Los Angeles radio station KXLU. Three years later, Reverend Dan's Music For Nimrods would win the LA Weekly Music Award for Best Radio Show.

Over the past decade, Reverend Dan has established himself as a unique fixture on the L.A. scene. With his signature opening line "How The Hell Are You, Hoodlums!" it's Dan's unbridled enthusiasm, coupled with his on-target survey of the best grit of all time and the best of the new grit you haven't heard yet, that sets him apart from the crowd. At a time when Rock & Roll has been overanalyzed, dissected, and sentimentalized to the point that it lay limp and lifeless on the turntables, radio. is lucky to have Reverend Dan around to remind us on a weekly basis what Rock & Roll is supposed to be about...Fun.
