BP Fallon es un tipo de mil vidas en una, periodista musical, fotógrafo, locutor de radio, currante en el Apple Records de los Beatles o en las giras de Led Zeppelin, T.Rex, Thin Lizzy o Ian Dury entre otros, pinchadiscos en el Zoo Tv Tour de los U2 y propietario de un legendario Club nocturno. Su presencia continúa siendo habitual en escenas variopintas del rock actual con su propia banda (BP Fallon & The Bandits) o en otros escenarios amigos (The Kills, Jack White...) y de vez en cuando hace las veces de elocuente presentador de eventos varios. Amigo al fin y al cabo de todo aquel que tiene algo significativo que aportar en el mundo de la cultura popular, inconfundible por su desde hace tiempo sempiterno bombín a la cabeza, sigue pinchando buena música en el programa de radio Bp Fallon's Wang Dang Doodle. Ahí van algunos ejemplos de lo que suena en su programa:

He is yet a considered activist in the current rock scene with his own band (BP Fallon & The Bandits) or other friendly scenarios (with The Kills, Jack White...) and even host in all kind of shows.
