Had a couple of events on Saturday for the station. The first was a remote at an RV place and honestly it brought back the tour bus memories. It's defenitely not all glitz on those things. They can be fun times though. Later in the evening it was off to the Arizona Rattlers game. I was hosting the Champs throw during one of the time outs. The object was to throw the football through the uprights from about 30 yards out. Our contestant was Nick and he didn't do so well the first throw. He was way wide to the right and short. The second throw was a little better but he still missed. He still walked away with a $25 gift certificate though. The Rattlers ended up losing the game, but it was cool to watch the game from the field.
They were great hosts for the evening and even had a # 93 jersey for me to wear. Cool stuff. Not to mention the other perk of being on the field was hanging with their cheerleaders the Sidewinders. Very hot chicks, and great personalities. Nice girls too. Hanging out front of the U.S. Airways Arena taking photos and hanging with the Rattler fans.
To round out my Cinco I went to a neighborhood bar and had a few drinks. It's always cool to walk in and they are playing your station. Of course there was the one guy who walked up to me and said "How many times have people told you that you look like Gregg Allman?" I swear if I had a nickel for everytime I heard that. I woud really be with Cher. When I mention it on the air no one ever believes me. I ask you why would I tell people I look like that guy of all people if I didn't?
Moving on.....
Tough game for the Suns. They just couldn't get the needed rebounds. Great game and it's going to be an awesome series.
In to the station to ROCK Monday. So let it be written so let it be done. Mandatory Metallica kicked ass with "Helpless", "Eye of the Beholder", and "Last Caress/Green Hell". Everyone still loves the old shit from Metallica. Cranked up some Cooper's "Welcome to My Nightmare" and "Gone Shootin'" from AC/DC. Bon Scott era is the best! It just doesn't get any better. I still say "Highway to Hell" is the greatest AC/DC album. Plus always cool to get listener feedback on a tune like Gone Shootin and that was done. People are still shocked when they hear it, but they love it. I believe the exact words from one loyal KDKB'r was that f**kin rocked!
Last Call rounded out the night with more great requests. Ted Nugent's "Stranglehold", Sabbath's "Paranoid", Ratt's "Round and Round", and Dream Theater's "Pull Me Under".
