'''V-Rock''' is a radio station based in [[wp:Reddick, Florida|Reddick, Florida]] in [[1984]] and later Vice City by [[1986]]. It broadcasts to [[Vice City in GTA III Era|Vice City]]. The station is featured in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]], and [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]]. It was originally hosted by [[Couzin Ed]], until [[Lazlow]] took over in [[1986]], when [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]] takes place. | |||
' | The station primarily plays rock, but also some metal. Station promos often included comparisons to other stations, saying that while other stations were playing synthesizer-music, V-Rock was playing rock. [[Jezz Torrent]] of [[Love Fist]] also makes a couple of appearances, stating that "You're listening to V-Rock". The station's mascot was a vulture, as seen in the station's logo, and Lazlow often complained that it got more air time than he did. The [[V-Rock Hotel]] in [[Las Venturas]], [[State of San Andreas|San Andreas]] was named after the station and featured its logo in its sign. [[Kent Paul]] often hung out with Love Fist at V-Rock's Vice City headquarters, and gave [[Tommy Vercetti]] several missions from there. Two songs by Love Fist appear in the playlist as well. It also has a phone line, slightly similar to that of [[Chatterbox FM]]. The three callers featured are [[Couzin Ed]], [[Mitch Baker]] and a person who refers to himself as Snow-Dog. In Vice City Stories the phone line is still present but the only caller is a guy who hates Couzin Ed. | ||

The V-Rock Logo features a vulture (V-Rock's mascot) in the middle of a red V with "Rock" in silver letters underneath it (for V-Rock). It is wearing a red and white spotted bandana and smoking a long, thin white cigarette. The vulture is brown and is wearing a blue t shirt and is making the sign of the horns with the feathers on its right wing. | The V-Rock Logo features a vulture (V-Rock's mascot) in the middle of a red V with "Rock" in silver letters underneath it (for V-Rock).
