March 3rd, 2013 to March
9th, 2013
I
think somebody speeds up the clock every week; otherwise, how could four hours
go by so quickly? That's how it felt yet again this week. It was great to get
your requests, as usual, and yet again nice to have new folks come by the Chat Room. It was great how everyone
welcomed Jeff in Idaho and made him feel right at home. He
just discovered the show a couple of weeks ago on The Legend in Indianapolis, Indiana,
one of our Broadcast Partners Network
stations. You really don't know how much the Chat Room enhances your listening
experience until you try it for yourself. There are always the regular Nuts in the Hut, as I refer to them. But
in recent weeks, there have also been new first time visitors that had a blast.
There are always lots of conversations going on about a particular song that is
playing on the show. And it sparks such great memories and the sharing of those
memories with each other. That's why Treasure Island Oldies is the soundtrack
to your memories. I invite you to drop[ by during the live show Sunday nights
from 6 to 10 pm Pacific time. As that old commercial used to go, try it -
you'll like it. Just Click Chat on
any page of the website and in no time, you too can be one of the Nuts in the
Hut.
A
couple of programming updates for your calendar - the week of March 17th it's our Annual One Hit
Wonders Special and the following week, March
24th, Tom Locke will join me in
the studio for a one hour mini special, Tribute
Records to the Music and Artists of the 50s and 60s.
Happy Birthday wishes go out to Rebecca Clee in Westbank, British Columbia,
Roy Geldart in Campbell River, British Columbia, one of the voices you hear on the
show every week with station IDs, Ed
Weigle in Sarasota, Florida, and our good friend, singer and songwriter Paul Evans in New York City. If you
have a birthday coming up, send the details of your name, city and birthday
date to birthdays@treasureislandoldies.com. I'll help you
celebrate by wishing you Happy Birthday on the show and I'll also play Birthday
for you by The Beatles.
The
Treasure Island Oldies Blog is
playing a great song by Brook Benton in a clip from the Ed Sullivan Show. It's Just A
Matter Of Time is our Song Of The
Week. Enjoy!
