Man, I gotta stop this once a month updating deal.. Things are, as usual, very very busy here in C-Ville. We hope to know the company that is buying us by next week. It will be a stress relief to know this, trust me. Clear Channel has basically said, "hey were selling all of you, we just don't know to whom or when." It's put a lot of the upper management in a high stress situation. I'm still dating Mandi. Things couldn't be better. She's great, without a doubt the best girlfriend ever. I have received a lot of great feedback on my "other job"...the afternoon drive slot. I'm trying really hard, just like in college, to be different. The problem with "The River", was that I had to be a certain way...and there was so much more I wanted to do. WIVK was almost the same way. Basically, my new boss sat me down and said, "Here's the show...do what you want within reason...just be family friendly." ....I've done everything from putting a drunk redneck on the line arguing about his wife....to putting Greg Brown on the air a number of times.....word. Also, as Music Director, I've learned a whole different side of radio....learning to talk your way through the record reps of Nashville. Some of them can be my best friends, and for others, I basically have to write a proposal just to get what we need. Since I was the new guy, the friction with some of these reps has gotten a lot better with time, especially with MCA and RCA records. Capitol records, however, hasn't exactly been a hope-skip-and a jump. But, hopefully that will change. I apologize if this bores you, maybe I should talk about The Adventures of Kenny Shubert and his Bellybutton...that should CAPTIVATE you!! I took my little brother to see TNMT. Oh mighty Zack Korff...where have you gone? And one last note... I'm feeling like America cares more about whether or not Sanjia gets voted off American Idol...then what's going on with our country (i.e. the little thing called WAR)...I have mixed emotions on this subject, but I fear the worst is yet to come. The Republicans and Democrats are one big WWE Wrestlemania...you can't trust any of them. Sorry if that sounds to "liberal" but it's the truth...and the TRUTH SHALLLL SEETT UUUUUU FAAAREEEEE thanking yeeeeee |
