Time to Jam, Drive and watch where I'm going!

It is nuts around the radio ranch this time of the year...1st there's Summer Jam 2008...For 21 years on the 3rd of July everyone gets together for some rock n' roll, friends & fireworks...This year I absolutely love the line-up...Classic rock with RGB 3 with Shawn Kelly...Then the Kings Of Stupid Mountain...I wonder if I'll get to sing with the boys...Then Dave McDonnell, Joey Delsignore & Paul Muse of the Marcabes with their friends...Max, Cluctch, Gator & Eddie...I can't wait to listen & see the guys...Paul Muse is one of the best musicians ever out of this area...The guys have been practicing hard and are looking forward to playing the Jam crowd...The headliners are Beginnings, the best Chicago tribute band in the country...We are also working with the world famous Alonzo Fireworks folks out of Mechanicville...For $3 you won't find a better deal this summer...I hope to see you there...On top of getting ready for Summer Jam, our 9th annual Morning Club celebrity go-cart race at Adventure Racing is coming up quick on July 22nd...To watch 30 plus adults get out and race in go-carts for 6 charities is a blast...It's fun and easy to get into...Just give me a call at the station to get the info for the race...I went to Yankee Stadium a few weeks ago and it was like I was a little kid in little league again...It was a great, but long day...My buddy, Todd Ash almost got us thrown out and beat up for trying to cut into the Monument Park line...I didn't even know that he was trying to get us to cut the line...There were some people that weren't to happy with us...I hope to see you on the 3rd & 22nd, until then...See you on the radio....Dan

Keys, Yankees & other things

A big THANK YOU to everyone that played the WCKM Treasure Chest contest...We have been doing this for awhile and this year's contest was absolutely nuts...We are already getting ready for next year...Pete wants to do a 3 strikes and your out for next year's contest...I'd love to hear what you think about that...You're the one playing the contest...I went to Yankee Stadium to watch the Yanks beat the Blue Jays 5 to 1...I hadn't been to Yankee Stadium since I was 19...We had a blast...It wasn't that hard to get to but there is no way I could live in NYC...That's just too much for me...This area has it all over down there...The "Highlight" of the day was paying $26 for 2 sodas & 2 orders of fries!!!!!!!!!!!!! One visit to the concession stand was enough for me...I would have to take out a small business loan to get something to eat again...I guess I shouldn't complain too much, we had a great time in the old stadium...We took a wrong turn when we left, not hard to do with all the construction and ended up in Harlem...I was just clueless but found my way home somehow...We are gearing up for Summer Jam 08 at East Field on July the 3rd...4 of our staff members will be playing at the show...It should be a good one and it'll be our 1st one with the Alonzo fireworks folks out of Mechanicville...Just some friendly words of advice, get your tickets now and don't get stuck waiting in line on the 3rd...I'll have more to come about the show soon...One more thing...I want to thank everyone at Johnsburg Central School for having Ken & me there to talk to the students...The kids were fantastic...We both look forward to speaking to them again next year...See you on the radio...Dan
