The Secret Life Of Bees - another MUST SEE

Posted by CapnChrisHill on October 16, 2008

…even I had to shed a tear in this movie. The Secret Life of Bees is set in the Civil Rights era in South Carolina, with Dakota Fanning & Jennifer Hudson  running away from home to find out the truth about  Dakota’s mother.  They end up at the “Pepto Bysmol” colored home of Queen Latifah and her 2 sisters  (One is played by Alicia Keys)…and the movie magic begins!

Another must see flick this fall!

Dr. Jerome (OLDSKOOL101.com)/ Mick Dolan (ROCK100DIZ.com) and the Captain - checking out the Jacksonville Jaguars at there 2008 Home Opener against the pesky Buffalo Bills. During the game the Jags pulled off a on-sides kick to start the 3rd quarter! Pretty slick Jack Del Rio! While watching the game Dr. Jerome witnessed a “Knock Down Drag Out Fight!”- OMG

Final Score  Buffalo 20 Jacksonville 16

“All and all it was a good game”… - Nobody knows how to circle the wagons like the Bills

Butchie Rockin the Biz-ox

Posted by butchie on July 24, 2008

You mean I get to play my favorite classic rock, and today’s hits, for the world to hear… all while I sit here on the couch in my Spiderman Underoos?  WHERE DO I F’ING SIGN UP?

Oh… I already signed up… for late mornings 9am-Noon eastern.  I guess I could drag my lazy behind out of bed by 8:58, caffeine up, and get these tunes playing on the computer, for you to start your workday to.
Please enjoy, and remember my old standby mantra… “If it’s too loud, you’re too old!”

“Failure to .Com-municate”

Posted by webmassa on July 23, 2008

Ok, so I guess after riding the Capn’s arse about posting, I should put a little digital ink down on here…

From the Director of Communications/Webmassa’s desk… Holy @#$% Batman (no I haven’t seen it yet), are we busy! Things are looking very good for some of the latest projects we’re working on here at A7BN.

Rock100DIZ.com is working on some things with Seven Mary Three and their upcoming show here in Central Florida, as well as getting ready to start a huge new Rock nite at Universal Skating Center (after party at the Cork Room); Rhythm96.com is steadily sounding better than ever and breaking out some hot new artists; Oldskool, well you should be hearing some pretty hard-hitting interviews coming up very soon, with some well-known artists from back in the day.

Another productive trip to Miami under our belts (thank God for GPS!). Also, talking with a fairly large marketing company about putting together a new “Dream Team” for the A7BN stations (this one is kinda top secret so I’ll tell you guys more when it starts coming together).

And that’s about all I can reveal at this time. So, there ya have it, ink from the Webmassa… NOW GET BACK TO WORK!

MP3js are the new PIMPS!

Posted by butchie on July 15, 2008

I was thinking… why are we still called DJs?  Seriously, have any of us spun a disc (record) in the last decade?  Doubt it!

Can I go on record as inventing the term MP3js?  We are, afterall, pioneering a new broadcast medium… and why can’t we have our own terminology and designation?  So what if it doesn’t roll off the tongue just yet; give it time.

“I’m Bad Butchie Brown and i’ll be your MP3j, Noon-3pm eastern, weekedays on Rhythm96.com…  i’ll be double clicking up your favorite jams on America’s Home for hip-hop, dance and R&B.  You’re just a few keystrokes and a mouse click away from that song you gotta hear… email me butchie@rhythm96.com

 

…NOT BAD, let’s get the promotion/publicity department on that…  I think I’m onto something…

Summer Fun

Posted by dancindave on July 8, 2008

This is a fun time to be in Upstate New York, lots of festivals are happening, parades and just good ole get togethers. This weekend there is a 4 day festival with non-stop music, all kinds of great tasting food which means I need to hit the German Food Stand while they are in town, mmmmmm!!! Plus there are vendors, a car show all sorts of things happening! Also the Farmer’s Markets are in full swing with great stuff like fresh strawberries, peas, corn and lots of homemade breads and pies! The weather has been good to with plenty of sunshine, in fact my grill has been busy! I’m making cheese burgers tonight for the family. And another part of summer is all the music sounds even better doesn’t it? You crank it up a little more and you roll the windows down too! Summer rocks that’s all there is too it!

My Naughty Parts Are Tingling

Posted by butchie on July 3, 2008

I couldn’t be happier about being a part of the Rhythm96.com family.  Cap’n and I go waaaaaay back, like mid 80’s, Capn’s got afro- Butchie’s wearing Sally Jesse Raphael glasses- Bobby Brown hadn’t been to jail yet- Dr. Ant could still see his feet- New Kids were cool BACK.
We shared a mentor in the sorely missed Doc Middleton, but the Capn’ learned most of what he knows from me… I know that ranks me as a borderline failure, but I’ve been dealing with it thru cheap online therapy and Cheetohs.

I’ve got some great stuff planned for the mid-days, plus my FUNK FACTORY and SKATETOWN USA shows over on OLDskool101.com
Thanks for listening, and for the love of all things holy- TELL A FRIEND… this light bill ain’t gonna pay itself!

America’s got talent…kind of!

Posted by dancindave on July 2, 2008

Well last night curiosity got the better of me and I actually tuned into America’s Got Talent. Overall there were some interesting talents and of course some extremely bad ones. I mean talk about wanting your 15 mintues of fame…most of them should have stayed home to keep from embarassing themselves. But a few did stand out, the brother/sister dance duo was exceptional! There was the gentleman who did his Frank Sinatra phenominally well, Jessica Price with her sad story of her dad leaving her family really knocked everyone dead with her Bonnie Raitt cover of “I Can’t Make You Love Me” and the best of the night though was little 9 year old David Militello. He has autism and started singing before he ever talked, he was a cutie and nailed the Jackson 5’s “Ben” and made his was to Las Vegas, it was an inspirational story to wrap up the show. So for all the horrible auditions, there were some shining moments too! AS for me I’ll stick to what I do best, talk on the radio and enjoy life. Can’t wait for the UFC fight night this Saturday….my wife and I will be glued to the match especially between Forrest Griffin and Rampage Jackson!! Well enjoy your 4th of July and have a blast but be sure to keep it safe too and thanks for listening to OldSkool101.com
