January 13th to 19th, 2019
Welcome to this week's Island Update. My thanks to the many listeners who get in touch with me during the live show, either via email and Facebook. It's great to be able to respond to a comment and to also play a request. Listeners have mentioned that it's amazing how they can make a request and then hear it shortly after sending it; it's almost like an instant request. This week also saw a near record number of folks in the Chat Room, where everyone had a great time chatting together. It truly is a great extension to the live show and I encourage you to come for a visit during the live show next Sunday. Just click Chat on the menu bar and then follow the instructions. See you with the other Nuts in the Hut!
It's fantastic to have the New Year get underway with the addition of another radio station to the Broadcast Partners Network. I'd like to extend a warm welcome to listeners in Thousand Oaks, California and KQVN 100.1 The Hill. We'll be with you every Sunday afternoon at 3 pm Pacific.
Happy Birthday wishes go out to Darryl Roberts, co-owner of our Broadcast Partners Network affiliate station, WTND-LP in Macomb, Illinois. Also a big hi and Happy Birthday to Judy Covington in Canton, Ohio; and also to Alice Bledsoe in Peoria, Illinois. If your birthday is coming up soon, be sure to let me know so that I can wish you all the best on the show and also play Birthday by The Beatles for you. Send the details to birthdays@treasureislandoldies.com
Voice Your Choice spotlights Maxine Brown with two of her hits, Cast your vote at the Voice Your Choice page for either All In My Mind or Oh No Not My Baby. I'll play the winning song on next week's show.
This week the Top Five Countdown is from 1960. The Number One spot is At The Hop by Danny and The Juniors. It's playing at the Treasure Island Oldies Blog.
Here is this week's Rock and Roll News Podcast.
See you next week on the Island.
Bye for now.
