As we celebrate the kickoff of football season, I reflect upon the following buffoonery that we were somehow allowed to get away with on KDWB circa 1998. My imitation of the yet-to-be retired Pat Summerall in various states of drunkenness hit the air just about every weekend whenever JJ was on. This is the only one I [...]

Y100 Miami – Pick Your Purse 2005
June 23rd, 2009 · 1 Comment · Y100 Miami
I liked this one because it acknowledges the limitations of our medium via self deprecating humor and embraces the web (and K3 nailed the read).

I think I found the guitar loop on chasecuts and proceeded to lose control. The headliner that year was Lenny Kravitz, so I worked his name into one [...]

From the last post to this one you can imagine I was busy doing a lot of stuff for free or on the cheap in 1999. Part time gigs at Cities 97 in Minneapolis, Z104 in Madison (which I later traded for KDWB in Minneapolis), United Health Care and a full time gig at an…um…”internet [...]
