It certainly was an interesting weekend. Live Earth was broadcast on KDKB from 9a.m. to 5p.m. on Saturday and I can tell you first hand that we had the best broadcast in the country on this concert. Since we were running it differently than any other. It was crazy that we would be sitting in the studio with minutes left on a segment and not know what was going to come up next. It got your adrenaline going that's for sure. I LOVE live radio. Screw ups, phone calls, interacting with the listeners, there is nothing else like it.
My favorite part of Live Earth was the reunion of Spinal Tap. Their performance of Big Bottom was awesome. Click here to watch.
Metallica was also very good and it sounded like James voice was in good shape again. There were times over the last few years where he just didn't sound like the old James. They were scheduled to do 4 songs but ended up with only 3. You can download that show and many others at livemetallica.com
The rest of the weekend was pretty mellow and low key. Sunday was a little crazy since I was on in the afternoon, and had to come back at midnight. Now I will admit I am hooked on the show Big Brother on CBS. I would never be watching these shows but now I am home during these times since I have to go and work at 12a.m. There are a few hotties on the show which certainly helps.
The shift tonight was great. Listeners were calling in all night. The Jam Session flew by. Great requests including one from Alvin Lee. Dug up the tune "Wake Up Moma". Damn it sounded good!
When we say Everything that Rocks... We mean it. Who else is playing Iron Maiden's "The Trooper" at 4 a.m.? Only us.
Have a great Monday.
