Good stuff for ya this weekend, we have FRAY concert tickets! They're at TWC on Wednesday night with a group called Jack's Mannequin. We'll slide you some tickets and also put you in the running to go backstage and meet the band!! Good stuff!
I gotta be honest, I'm excited. Sunday, going up to The Grog Shop to see a band called HEY MONDAY. They have a cool tune called "How You Love Me Now", which you MIGHT hear on the station soon! Never know...
Then MONDAY is NO DOUBT AND PARAMORE!!!! Blossom! And I just saw they've adjusted the forecast, no more rain scheduled! WOO!
Can't wait!
It's a Q92 BACK IN THE DAY weekend, so we'll mix in some No Doubt tunes to get ya pumped up! I know alot of you won tickets from us, so if ya see me, say yo!
And of course we'll be playing some Michael Jackson over the weekend. It's hard to believe. I was in the production room with Mo on Thursday evening around 6. He said "Oh wow, Michael Jackson is in the hospital, they say it doesn't look good". I went into another studio a few minutes later and hoped on Facebook. I see tons of status' saying Michael had passed. I ran out and said "Oh my God dude, he died!". Mo said "what?" and I said "yeah, its on TMZ. I can't find any credible news source saying that yet though"...and from that point it was basically a waiting game to see what was going on, and just before 6:30, NBC and ABC updated that he had indeed, passed away.
Mo and I went on the air and broke the news, and played 90 minutes of non-stop MJ tunes/took calls about it. Meanwhile, I went to work in the next room on a special promo, which you may have heard over the last 2 days on the station.
The first MJ song we played was "Black Or White"...I cranked it up in the studio and really just got chills. To think THE King Of Pop was no longer with us. The man who made SO MUCH good music...had passed on.
There are a select handful that have chosen to only remember him for the alleged 'scandal' in which some greedy parents tried to take some money from a guy just trying to help kids have a childhood that he didn't get to have...
I, for one, will remember him for his music. And the ever-lasting impression he left on the world of pop music.
LADIES: WHAT YOUR GUY *REALLY* MEANS
These come from Yahoo! Personals...
#1.) "I'll call you": What he means is he MIGHT call you, but it's just as likely that he won't...so you shouldn't get your hopes up too high.
#2.) "I like your shirt / necklace / hair / etc.": What he means is you look HOT...and he wants you to get naked.
#3.) "I've been busy lately": If you've been dating for more than six months, chances are he likes you...but he's trying to focus on other things right now. But if you've been dating for less than six months...he's lost interest in you.
#4.) "I need some space": What he means is the relationship is moving too fast and if it doesn't slow down...he's out the door.
****Rob interjection***** NO GUY says "I need space". Chicks say that!
#5.) "I love spending time with you": What he means is he THINKS he loves you...but he's not ready to say it just yet.
#6.) "I don't believe in marriage": What he means is he's NOT going to marry you. Now it's up to you to make the next move.
#7.) "I want this to last forever": What he means is he's having a great time right now...but that doesn't necessarily mean he'll feel the same way in a week or two.

SPEAKING of Kelly Clarkson...
I took some grief on the air last weekend for my comments regarding Kelly's weight. I basically said she's put too much weight on. A woman called and challenged me to put her pictures from then and now up, and MY pictures from then and now up. This is 2005, to 2009. I told her "I'm not saying I didn't age, or gain a couple since then, its about looking in the mirror and being able to say to yourself 'yeah...this ain't getting it done!"
With that said...me and Kelly, 2005:
Kelly, 2 weekends ago in Chicago for a radio station event there:
And myself, last weekend w/ Nikolina and Scott Adams (and Kleon)
Receding of the hairline...eh a bit. Can't help that! A few pounds added? Sure. But LOOK at Kelly!!
Point made.
PICTURE SPEAKS FOR ITSELF...
KATY PERRY DOES IT IN THE TUB

TWO IN THREE AMERICANS FEEL THERE IS MORE LONELINESS IN TODAY'S SOCIETY:
These days, there are literally dozens of ways for people to stay in touch with one another . . . which is why THIS seems so out of whack...
According to a recent survey, FOUR in FIVE Americans think it's easier to stay in touch with friends and family members than it was five years ago...yet THREE in FIVE say they have FEWER meaningful relationships now than they did back then. (???)
And while the average person has 136 Facebook friends . . . they only have SIX friends who they consider "committed confidants".
But I suppose that makes sense considering only 29% of people agree that conversations over email, text message or social networking websites actually make them feel closer to the other person. And get this . . .
Overall, TWO in THREE Americans say there's more LONELINESS in today's society . . . than there used to be.
SUNSHINE and 80 degrees today! Go forth and enjoy it, make sure ya take Q92 with ya though! THANK YOU for reading, and listening!
