What a wonderful Mother’s Day
celebration we had on this week’s special edition of the show. And it’s so
nice to be able to play all those great songs that refer to mother in the title
and lyrics. And on top of that, the Chat
Room was going strong with lots of conversation. A long time listener and
occasional chat room visitor, Nancy
from Niagara Falls stopped by to say
hi and to wish a Happy Mother’s Day. She commented to me that no matter how
long it is between her visits, she is always warmly welcomed by everyone. And
that is exactly what the chat room is all about; it’s regular folks coming by
to have a visit with each other and yours truly and it’s a very nice atmosphere
without any attitude, hassling or foul language. Definitely worth your visit
too. Come by during the live show next week. Click Chat on any page of the website and follow the simple
instructions. Look forward to seeing you soon.
And we will definitely honour Dad on our Annual Father’s Day Special, coming up Sunday, June 15th, for the Live show. As in our Mother’s Day Special, we’ll have tons of songs
for Dad throughout the four hour show. And if there’s a special song you’d like
me to play, perhaps with a dedication too, just let me know. Click Requests on the website or Call the Listener Line at 206-339-0709 to record your message. I
look forward to hearing from you.
I’d like to say hi and welcome two new stations to the Treasure Island
Oldies Broadcast Partners Network: Peachland Radio is located in Peachland, British Columbia in the
beautiful Okanagan Valley, wine,
fruit, and golf country. As well a big hello to Able Radio in Cork, Ireland.
We’ll be on that station every Thursday
from 8 pm to midnight local time. It’s so nice to continue to grow the
number of stations carrying the show. Thank you very much. More to come…
I’d like to wish a Happy Birthday
to Toni Howerton in Middletown, Ohio and also to my own
Mom, Kathleen Godin, in Gatineau, Quebec. She’s turning 94
this week! Boy I am so lucky to have her still in my life and doing so well. And
if you have a birthday approaching, be sure to let me know. I’d love to send
best wishes your way for your special day and play Birthday by The Beatles.
Send the info to birthdays@treasureislandoldies.com.
The Treasure Island Oldies Blog

Roll Lullaby and it’s our Song Of The

Voice Your
Choice spotlights late 50s teen heartthrob, Frankie Avalon. Cast your vote at the Voice Your Choice page for either Why or Just Ask Your Heart. I’ll play the winner next week during the 3rd

Here’s the Rock and Roll News

Well that about wraps it up for this week. I look forward to your

Bye for now.
