I'll listen to it free online instead of paying, but thanks.

Nice idea, but with the feature regularly airing at 11 pm on a weeknight, well, I won't hear many of the shows.........

I was part of the pilot program for this back in Nov or Dec. I didn't make the cut, but it's a great idea and I hope it takes off.

I got an email from Kristin and replied but never heard back. I guess they didn’t like my song choice. I am truly disappointed.

No it doesn't really exist (yet). But the name was too cool not to register
and the tagline "Radio, with a capital Aaaar" was just too tempting.

I'll be emailing my 4 songs to "Fruitcakes On The Radio" as well.

Make ya a deal SP....I'll pass on the RM gig to head out to sea with your crew of misfits......on two conditions. One, I get to drink and pick out my own music while I'm on air , and two, I want the Noon to 5pm shift so I don't have to get up in the morning, and am off every evening to enjoy the parties

(it also leaves you the prime time slot)

Oh, I also want to follow the JB tour this summer and do my shows from the tailgates

Me too

Maybe the fact that my favorite songs were four live versions of Trippin' Billies didn't help my chances.

All right, Cincinnati, it is time for this town to get down! Now, you've got Johnny....... Dr. Johnny Fever, and I am burnin' up in here! Whoo! Whoo! We all in critical condition, babies, but you can tell me where it hurts, 'cause I got the healing prescription here from the big 'KRP musical medicine cabinet. Now I am talking about your 50,000 watt intensive care unit, babies! So just sit right down, relax, open your ears real wide and say, "Give it to me straight, Doctor, I can take it!"
[starts Ted Nugent's "Queen of the Forest", then puts on his sunglasses] Oh, I almost forgot, fellow babies...”Booger!"

You guys crack me up!

No worries, the show re-airs Fridays at 9am, Sundays at 3pm and Mondays at 9pm. Hope this helps.

I'll take the morning shift! I promise to quit drinking at 5am so I can be on the air by 6am!

And my first song every morning will be "What do you do with a drunken sailor...."

I sent in my 4 songs too and got back a standard "we'll let you know if we are interested" email. I wonder if the fact that I didn't pick M'ville, CIP, Volacano and WDWGDAS helped me or hurt me?!?!?!?

Posted: **April 9, 2010 1:00 pm**

I too got the promising email and was very excited but got no response after that. Is this about picking the right songs or about being a fan?
If we have not heard back in two weeks should we assume that we have not been chosen?
I have stories to tell. I have been told I have a good voice and a face for radio.
I will hear it this weekend and drown my sorrows and disappointment in rum.
