This Week...

This week is going to be crazy!

We will be talking with Gretchen Wilson about her show at the Hard Rock on Thursday, and Josh Gracin is going to tell us about his guest appearance on The Young and the Restless soap opera. Did you happen to see the story on the news last week about the radio DJ in Iraq that is being compared to the likes of Robin Williams in Good Morning Vietnam? Well, JD worked like crazy to get her, and we'll be talking to her (yes her) later this week too! I am working with NBC to get one of the judges from America's Got Talent...They have some really funky interview times, so I am not sure that it will work, but we are trying!

Aside from all of this, we have been putting together a way to let a listener go up in a helicopter to watch the 4th of July fire works at one of the displays in the area of their choice...We wanted to tie it in with fire works too, and now that all of the "fires" (haha get it?) have been put out...well listen as the week goes on to find out how you can get your chance! I rode in a helicopter not too long ago when we gave a listener a ride to work in one, and the view was amazing!!
Good Luck!

Last weeks "bush race" at Truck and Trailer USA was a great one, and thank you to TTUSA and all of you who came out...It was a blast! We will have pictures on the site this week, but being that it was the official "Bring your dog to work day", LuLu came out with me, and when she wasn't begging for some Panera Bread stuff, she was getting all the love she could muster out of our listeners!
I have attatched a picture of her!!

see you soon!

Out Sick

Holy cow!! I was only gone for 2 days, and I feel like I missed SOO much!
I have been playing catch up like crazy today!! Sales people needed me to cut commercials for them, and not to mention we have the annual "Bush" race out at Truck and Trailer USA tomorrow mornin' too! When we have off site stuff like this we basically have to literally put "the show on the road", commercial logs (tells us what commercials are supposed to play when, music logs (what music and when), traffic stuff, news stuff, plus everything we need to do the actual race...cordless microphone, headphones, regular microphones, and sooooo much more. Thank goodness we have an awesome Promotions staff to help us out, or it wouldn't get done!! Tomorrow night I will be out at the Palm Beach County Boat Show at the fairgrounds from 5-7pm. Stop by, I promise I am not contagious anymore!!

I heard the show at Friendly's was awesome, and hope all that were lucky enough to attend enjoyed themselves, and had a Fribble too!

We'll catch up soon, I will have pictures from tomorrow...it is sure to be a great time!!
Truck and Trailer USA is just East of the Turnpike on Southern on the North side. If you get to the Shell gas station you have just missed the small signs to turn in.

Hope to see you there!!

Feel the HEAT!

Well here it is Wednesday, and the Heat finally won a game!!! WAHOO! The guys are giving me grief because now that the Pistons are out, I am of course going to root for the Heat, and they think that is wrong...I disagree!!

It was great to meet some of our listeners at the Anchor Inn Lakeside on Saturday night for the Cabo Wabo Tequila party...good times! We'll have to do this again, and I will post the NON-incriminating pictures later!

Thank you to all who came out to the first annual WIRK golf tournament. It was a great time, and for those of you who missed it because you think that you can't golf...well shame on you! This isn't about your golfing abilities, it was about having fun! We'll have it again next year, so you can join us then!

For any Days of Our Lives fans, you know that Kayla and Patch have returned to the show, and I have used my magic contacts to set up an interview with Patch! I have been talking with NBC, and they finally came through. We'll let you know when it will be on, but keep an ear to your radio!

This weekend I'll be out at Al Packer Ford East on Saturday (6/17), from 11am until 1pm. Stop by and say hello!

Later!

FRIDAY!!!

Happy Friday everybody!!

This week has flown by, and this weekend will be just as fast I think. Tomorow we have the first annual WIRK YeeHaw Open golf tournament, and it is sure to be a blast!
We had a staff meeting on Wednesday to discuss where everyone will be.

Tiny will be manning the first hole called "Walking Tall", I will be on the "Moonshine" hole with a couple marines :), Bill will be taking care of the "Cowpie" hole, JD will have the "Buckshot" hole, JR Jackson gets the "Toilet Bowl" hole (haha and he wanted to know how that happened!), and Dave Michaels gets the "camoflage" hole! As you can see this is NOT going to be your average round of golf! Other holes include the NASCAR hole, Redneck woman, Road Kill, and even a Chaw hole! We all have our assignments, and it isn't too late for you to get signed up! Call 561-964-4653 for details.

Don't forget I will be at the Anchor Inn on Hypoluxo Road Saturday night (9:30-11:30pm) for a Cabo Wabo tequila party...We will be giving away tickets to see Sammy Hagar, and the Cabo Girls will be there too!


JD announced his new "Big Thank You" segment on the show yesterday with Panera Bread stopping in to help kick it off. To find out how you can be a part of it click on the link below, and copy and paste it in your web browser:

Tim and Faith show!!!

What a great show!! Tim and Faith were great. Here are some Pictures.
Before the show, Tim and Faith did a small performance for a select group of lucky fans.
They answered some questions, and sang a couple songs before they had to get ready for their show.

Don't forget the YeeHaw open is this Saturday, and it promises to be nothing short of a really fun time!

Saturday night I will be at the Anchor Inn on Hypoluxo for a Cabo Wabo tequila party from 9:30 to 11:30pm. Be sure to come out and say hello! The Cabo Wabo girls are rumored to be attending, and what a great way to end the day after the YeeHaw golf tournament...plus the Heat will be playing!!

Rascal Flatts Concert!!

Wow what a show!!
Last night Rascal put on a show that was nothing short of great!
I was supposed to take Gary fishing again like last year, but due to their flight arriving into West Palm late we were unable to go, so I met up with the guys at the meet and greet!
I don't know how they keep it all together...there were at least 100 people that went through the meet and greet...it was definately more a see and leave. The new way that the management runs the pre show activity is an assembly line. You walk up, they take your picture, the guys say hello, and then you receive a card with your picture in it and the guys have all signed it before you even arrived!
After the show some friends and I stayed to visit, but it was late so we went over to Palm Beach to Cucina, where they played some country music for all of us that were at the concert...It was funny to see some of the customers that had know idea what they were listening to try and keep up!
I will have more pictures later, but these are just some that we took at the show!
