back on topic: ROCK ON SPIKE-BUH!!!!! KICK THE PANTHERS AZZ!

My first gig was a board op midnight to 6am on the weekends. Then Riding the board for all the church and countdown shows on Sunday. After a few months of that I got a 'talking' shift overnight weekdays. Met some interesting people. Partied a lot.

Funny thing - all I ever wanted to do was be a rock-n-roll roadie but was always afraid to just run away and 'join the circus'...like radio was any different?

What the hell is this thread about?

Oh yeah, we better win...

This Thread is about basic truths.
Basic Truth #1: Radio, like art, is not a job. They are hobbies. If you like
having anything, do something useful, like welding.

Basic Truth #2. GEAUX SPIKE-BUH! Help us kick the Panthers AZZZ!
