August
10th, 2-14 to August 16th, 2014
Another week and another fun four hours with you on the Island.. I love
being able to play so much music every hour and without stopping every five
minutes for 5 minutes of commercials. LOL I like being able to do the show this
way, but it does limit the revenue opportunities. That’s why I very much
appreciate your Support for the show
via PayPal. Did you know that you
can make a recurring donation in whatever amount you wish to donate. You can
also do a monthly subscription for $4.95. Some make a donation a few times a
year with a bit more substantial amount. Whatever you are able to do it very
much appreciated. Please click the PayPal button at the website for more
details. Thanks very much.
The month of August represents the 15th
Anniversary of the Tom Locke Moment
In Time on the show. To celebrate and recognize the milestone, Tom Locke
will join me in the studio during the first hour of next week’s show. We’ll
reminisce about how the feature got started and how Sorrells Pickard and his wonderful peanut butter company became involved
as a sponsor. And we’ll play some interesting Moments In Time as well. It all
starts next Sunday at 6 PM Pacific, 1 am to 5 am UTC Universal time.
Happy
Birthday wishes go out to Matt Meaney,
my good friend in Langley, British Columbia.
If you have a birthday approaching, be sure to let me know. I’ll play Birthday by The Beatles for you and also wish you Happy Birthday on the air.
Just send the details to birthdays@treasureislandoldies.com.
If you heard this week’s Live show, you’ll have heard me tell you about
some new Seniors Texting Codes. Here
are some for you to remember (LOL): ATD:
At The Doctors; BYOT: Bring Your Own
Teeth; FWIW: Forget Where I Was; IMHO: Is My Hearing-Aid On; OMMR: On My Massage Recliner; OMSG: Oh My! Sorry, Gas; ROFLACGU: Rolling On The Floor Laughing
And Can’t Get Up; and last but not least, TTY:
Talk To You Louder. There - these should be of tremendous help! ROFL
If you happen to be in Nova Scotia next weekend, go to the South Shore
and Liverpool on the Mersey River for
the 24th Annual Hank Snow
Tribute. Tickets are NOT expensive and for an additional $10 you’ll get
either a lobster or roast beef dinner. Where do I line up? J
The Treasure Island Oldies Blog
is playing a very nice live performance by Chad
and Jeremy. Yesterday’s Gone is
our Song of the Week. Enjoy!
Canada’s Joni Mitchell is in
the spotlight next week on Voice Your
Choice. Cast your vote at the Voice Your Choice page for either Help Me or Big Yellow Taxi. I’ll play the winner next week during the 3rd
hour of the show.
Here’s the Rock and Roll News
for the week of August 10th
Listen to the Top 5 Countdown
from 1963
That’s about all for this week. Be sure to listen next week when Tom
Locke will join me in the studio as we celebrate the 15th
Anniversary of the Moment In Time.
Bye for now.
Michael
