Short & sweet … the fun rolls on

Today marks the beginning of my afternoon show’s 5th year at US 99.5 … and I owe it all to you.

What a ride over the last four years … concerts, trips, Nashville living room broadcasts, and the ins and outs of all of our families.

Hopefully, you’ll continue to check in when you can, as I promise to keep giving you your favorite songs, great conversation, and big prizes.   Plus, you can always catch up via Facebook, Twitter, e-mail, IM, texting, or the phone.   It’s all about you.

Make it a fantastic day, and we’ll chat soon …

Making your life easier, through 287-995

One of the greatest things about texting?  It requires very little work on your part.

Something new I thought might help your busy life — text updates / alerts about station events that you may’ve missed on the radio.

Every Thursday, I host The Road at 10pm.  Two hours of live music & conversation with your favorite stars.  Want to know who’s on the show this week, or the next few programs?

  • Text “THE ROAD” to 287-995, and you’ll never miss your favorite artist again.

Every Friday, I host the Friday Night Party Patrol at 9pm.  A different bar each week with Miller Lite prizes & specials, plus all-request country music!   Want to know when we’ll be in YOUR neighborhood?

  • Text “PARTY PATROL” to 287-995, and I’ll tell you exactly where to find us.

It’s all about making your life easier, and getting the most out of each day.

Make it a great one, and we’ll chat after 3pm.

A new toy, in the text number 287-995

I like new toys.  One of them arrived in the mail today … the first five volumes in the Bug Me Video collection.

Another new toy that “arrives” today at 3pm?

Our new US 99.5 text number.  287-995.

You can use it to find out the name of a song, to join the conversation, just about anything.

I can’t wait.

287-995. 

Put it in your contacts now, and we’ll chat after 3pm.

Text me at US 99.5, starting next week

Another day of below-zero temperatures, and my wife Jill is convinced we need to insulate our kitchen (it’s the coldest room in our house, directly above the only unfinished room in the basement).  Seeing that they probably had little, extra insulation in 1924, I agree.

I’m waiting for the high of 5 at lunchtime.

But the big news this morning … 287-995.  Those 6 simple digits are the new text number for US 99.5!

Starting next week, you’ll be able to text to win, text to chat, text for whatever reason you’d like.  If you can’t get through on the phone and you’re away from e-mail, texting is the way to go!

On that note, who are you texting the most every day?  10 messages?  20 messages?  50 messages?

Let’s talk about it, today after 3pm.

On the show this week:

Two chances to win the Hi-Lo Jackpot (up to $5,000) ... at 5:10 & 5:40!

*Invitation-only* passes to see Rodney Atkins at Joe's Bar next month ... grab 'em at 4:30!

MegaTickets worth $450 (the same 2 seats for all 4 summer shows!) - win at 5:30!

On My Mind...
