Back!

Well Vegas was alot of fun, but at last it was time to come home.
I met JD at 1:20am Wednesday morning to go do the broadcast at KLUC, our affiliate station in Vegas. We picked up Bill from Hooters, and we were on our way! The broadcast went well, and at 7am it was time to head to the airport to come home. Bill and Mitch were flying on a seperate flight, and JD and I's flight was delayed...of course it was, we were flying into Chicago, and if you know anything about O'Hare airport...well lets just leave it there!
Bill and Mitch's flight left pretty much on schedule...let me tell you Bill almost didn't make it AGAIN because they accidentally cancelled his return flight home! JD and I got into Chicago with 45 minutes to spare until our next flight left...yahoo! things were looking good! UNTIL!!!
We boarded the plane, and the stewards were asking everyone to hurry because there was some bad weather coming and we needed to try and leave as soon as possible to avoid it! People didn't listen, and we wound up sitting on the runway with about fifty (yes fifty!) other planes waiting for almost two hours to get the clear to take off!! UGH!
We finally got into WPB around 12:30am, and after waiting for luggage, realizing they lost one of my bags...filling out the proper forms, and getting home it was after one. Sleep was the only thing on the docket for Thursday...and JD agreed!

I hope you all enjoyed the interviews from Vegas.

Have a safe holliday weekend, and tune in next week as we try and return to some sense of normal again... whatever that is!

Vegas...drained!!

What a day yesterday!! Rascal Flatts, Carrie Underwood, Trick Pony, Grettchen Wilson, Big and Rich, and many more too! Toby Keith was supposed to come by, but he was running late for rehearsal so he couldn't get to us...maybe next time!
Bill and I can't believe JD snuck backstage to catch a sneak peak at the set for the ACM awards...shady is his new nick name!!
Listen this morning as we will be broadcasting from our sister station out here in Vegas, and then flying home later...It will be a late one, and we will all be running on just about NO sleep by the time Thursday morning gets here.
Here is the Vegas money update: Bill broke about even, JD lost (AGAIN...imagine that...hee hee!), and Mitch isn't talking! What... you really think I am going to admit to anything?!
We will be posting some great pictures when we get back...hope you have enjoyed hearing from all your favorite stars from Sin City USA!!

Vegas!!

Well JD, Mitch, and myself have all made it to Vegas, but Bill had some trouble so he will be getting here later tonight! I am at Hooters...Wow! Never thought I would be able to say that I stayed here! Tonight JD will be going to see KA, a Cirque de Solei production, and I will be meeting up with friends in from LA to check out a new nightclub..rumor has it that Janet Jackson might be hanging out with us (I know she's not country...).
Tomorrow we will have meetings about the broadcast, and get everything set up to broadcast live to you on Monday morning!
Listen Monday as we will be live from the MGM Grand, and I will have moved over to the MGM hotel where it is not so orange! More secret sound on Monday too, so listen in, and I will give you more updates about everything going on here later....See ya!
