I'm proud to have started the "Buffett Buffet" on Cool 102 when I worked there from 2000-2003. Jim Riley has done a fantastic job continuing the Buffet. Here in Myrtle Beach, I still have the "Parrothead Paradise" Sunday nights from 7-8 as well as the "Friday Morning Buffett...

I appreciate all the varying opinions on the "Sellout" subject. I didn't post to "get a rise" out of people or to intentionally anger anyone. It was simply a case of a long-time Parrothead venting a high level of frustration. I have no idea if Jimmy reads this (or other) forums, ...

If I cancelled the 2 Buffett programs, the local Parrotheads would not be happy - but the remaining 99% of our 25-64 year old listenership wouldn't bat an eye. The only reason why I have these specialty elements is because I'm a Parrothead. I produce the Sunday 1 hour show locally and do it LIVE on ...

"Radio Sucks" is a relative term. If you're being bashed by the same corporate playlists sent down from an office 1,000 miles from your local station - then I'd agree with you. However, our corporate offices allow the local stations to play what "fits" - which might sound like th...

I don't care "who says what" about me. It's my opinion and I'm sure others feel the same way - but are afraid of being flamed for it. If you choose to spend money to hear RM on Sirius, it's your decision. But, again, as a broadcaster who knows the value of revenue, it's nothing but a case ...

Sellout

I never thought I'd say this, but Jimmy has become a sellout to the almighty dollar. Not only does he have his restaurants, he spurns traditional venues to play baseball stadiums to satisfy a "lifelong dream" and now takes Radio Margaritaville to Sirius Satellite Radio. He's sold out - and...

I'm trying to get our audio streaming over the net, but it costs $$$$. It's not as easy as it was 5-10 years ago. We're in Myrtle Beach - so if you're located within a 60-mile radius of the "Sun Fun City", you can enjoy it. If not, get one of your local radio stations outfitted with a Parr...

On the Banana Wind CD, the last track is titled "False Echoes (Havana 1921)" at 9 minutes and 21 seconds. When I first bought the CD, and was playing it in my car, I noticed the last track cued up at nearly 16 minutes - and there, my friends, was the hidden track - along with some Jimmy &q...
