4th of July

Nothing like getting the 4th started a little early on the 3rd. Headed over to Islands with the staff for a few cold ones, which is a great way to get the All Night Jam Session rollin'.

Never quite sure how the holidays will be since there is a lot of traveling and people off, but once again the phones were jammed with requests.

Mandatory Metallica got things started. I believe that also got the partiers going as well. Some crazies calling in and I love it. The past few nights the grocery store people have checked in but yet there aren't trashing each other any more. I try and egg it on but no dice. They say they are trying to behave I am not sure I believe that. Last Call as always blows me away with the requests. Tonight it was Alice in Chains "Would", Dio "Holy Diver", and Maiden's "Wasted Years", that tune always gets people going. The best call of the night though came in from the fire department who had to hear the Talking Heads "Burning Down the House" of course I was a little slow on that one, but pretty damn funny. Just think about it. Firemen..Burning Down the House..

Had to pull an extra long shift tonight and filled in for J.R. and Marci as they had a vacation day. No sweat I will do it.. Can't pass up doing morning drive in any fashion. Certainly will make for a long ass day.

Enjoy the 4 play for your 4th of July. I must say that my favorite 4 play of the morning was Zeppelin with "How Many More Times", "Rock N Roll", "Stairway to Heaven" and "Dancing Days" now that is a kick ass block of rock! Another one that kept me going this morning was AC/DC and "Highway to Hell", "You Shook Me All Night Long", "Have a Drink On Me" and "Sin City" I would have preferred to do 4 from Bon Scott, but I know there are Brian Johnson fans as well. I just prefer Bon.. there is just something about him as front man that you just think that is a rock icon.

Have a great 4th.
