Miguel said "In a world of instant satisfaction, pop idols that come and go and a musical culture that is as fickle as a flea in an animal shelter, Becca Jones-Starr is a kindred spirit for those thirsty for Rock and Roll! The way it was at the birth of FM radio before the re-emergence of top 40. Her website 'Bite-The-Dust.com' is an all encompassing format to conduct The Great Crusade via the blog 'Fiberglass Jacket' and her loyal podcast 'Rockast' are a loud beacon for relief from todays melodic suicide."

Ashley said "Bite-The-Dust.Com is a creative, well done website about the power of rock music. It is run by dedicated fans, like my friend Becca Jones-Starr, who is as original as they come. She really believes in what she's doing and will make you believe in it to, or even more so than you already do. The site contains many anecdotes from her own like, and also includes my personal favorite, the Rockasts. The Rockasts are easy to listen to podcasts of great music and commentary by Becca that is always interesting. I said once that listening to the Rockasts is like being in the room with Becca listening to the music and hearing her stories, it's intimate. Overall, the site is really different and should be visited by anyone who loves rock n' roll."

Emily said "I have had the honor of knowing Becca for over ten years. Through this span of time, we've been both friends and peers. Near the beginning of her exploration into website design, I offered her space on my own personal domain. Since then, I have always been impressed with her knack for website design, sheer determination, and perseverance to stick with whatever project she has going on (no matter what else is happening in her life). For me, website design has mostly been a hobby-something that I haven't stuck with that well. For Becca, website design is a way of life that she is sublimely passionate about.

For over ten years, I've seen her graphical and coding abilities grow exponentially. Her creative pursuits have never dwindled; they've only grown to accommodate and encompass new interests and pursuits she discovers in other aspects of her life. These creative pursuits are often artistic and musical in nature; I know of few other people who are as industrious and excited about all of the work she puts forth professionally as well as personally. She takes pride in everything she does all the while managing to maintain a balance in a way that's near impossible for me. Not only is she a prolific website designer, she puts forth quality work time and time again that just blows me out of the water. To this day, we remain both friends and website design peers and she is always there to help me out with any question I have regarding my own website (and trust me, I've bombarded her with tons of questions). If you have a fond appreciation for music, art, and/or website design, you'll love bite-the-dust.com!"
