As I get ready to fyre up the box tonight to venture forth on this excursion that could easily be called Coast to Coast FM, but formally HazzardAyre, I am once happy the studio, is here in the house. Since last night , my brain has drained where its not as tender although anything too stressful I’m avoiding. But the chili I bought has long since become sewage going somewhere. Since about 18:00 hours, nothing stays down but hey the show must go on.
I’m now reflecting of what happened all last night. Funny still never got my wick wet, but hey its Tweaker Flatts and western Idaho. After all the gals don’t want their pastors and Bishops to know they were out partying of Friday.
The fashion trend that we keep fighting for is about 70% on, and less off. But the off part is what we’re trying to cure. Its not so much a thing of sexual alluring, its more about fashion class and self esteem. The very first, thing I notice always when I first enter a bar or similar establishment outside of corner dives, is how many gals are wearing skirts, or at least nylons under their pants. The fact that some gal took the time to go to the trouble of wearing stockings means she cares about her stuff, is proud of her curves and not ashamed of it. It’s a known fact the wearing of stockings or hosiery is for us male corpuscles. It wasn’t that way years ago. Pantyhose was worn for fashion sense yes, but Pantyhose was also a way most women could suck in all those extra pounds, and veins,. Today, spanx and such does that, even these phytness body suits. Makes you wonder how much of a bad surprise it is when he gets her home and she pulls all of that off, that it all plops out like biscuit dough from that Pillsbury roll. At least with stockings even pantyhose at least access to what we all like to begin with, can be gained through a pair of small scissors and removal of that cotton panel.
The next thing I noticed from last night was all the empty lines that all too many guys were barking out. Have you ever noticed that in just about any bar the hottest gals in there are the ones working there? From the gal mixing drinks to the servers, the real take em home and play, is the employees. Which is a near mission impossible, since they have heard every come on line and every invite lie out there. Not saying it can’t happen, but basically speaking its so rare, that it borders a press conference when it does. It’s like taking home a gal from a skin bar, or bikini club, getting one of those hotties to go home with you rates up there with winning the lottery. Slim and none.
Was looking over the ideas of the designs for the new studios in Ogden for HazzardAyre. We already have a good mixer, broadcast mic although a powered one would be good, two cassette decks etc , and our cd players. But for aesthetics sake and just my own nostalgia, I’d like to have one of those old of course inside rebuilt, but I’d like to have an old GATES console. Rotary pots, lever switches , and those two big black boxed mounted right on the front VU meters. That warm glow late at nite on air can creates some real voodoo magic. Add to that, two racks, of Carts, and a vertical stacked three slot ITC Cart machine. Not only are these old skool tools great for quick items like intros, noises and bits, but they just look great on video, which HazzardAyre will be . As far as the fidelity that’s somewhat in the sky, but I love those old rigs. Add to that two big TEAC or SCULLY reel to reel open deck tape units, and that’s my studio. So I’m doing a bunch of EBay and other searches. When most big stations went computer and digital, most stations threw that stuff out, for those that didn’t and have some of this in a storage shed somewhere, I’d love to get a hold of it. Then of course and even tonight it’d be a gift and in a way I might just do that. But the only automation I want in this studio, and on our station is the pipeline importing Dixie Broadcasting. Past that the rest of the time I don’t want automation. I want someone at least preferably two in the studio live 24/7/365. A guy and a gal, broken up as 4 six hour shifts, 3 not including me and one gal rolling the highways and skyways overnight with me. That was one of the things that we demand at HazzardAyre, to get back to what made true real radio. I caught a thing in Radio Ink, the other day, about how there is a real decline to the quality of radio. Local radio. It’s a morning rush, afternoon if your lucky news hour, evening rush or drive. The rest of the time the studio is empty and just a satellite program being piped in. Real true all the time LIVE radio is nearly gone. The goal of HazzardAyre even though online as well in two years over the air, is to have LIVE people at all times in that studio. That way even if it is a 4 hour time difference between us and the east coast etc, no matter the time factor, if Joe Smoke in a rig at a truck stop in Portland Maine or Portland Oregon, if he emails, or calls in for a song request, he’ll get it. Not a no answer or voice mail saying call back tomorrow. Since the automated show is the only one playing. The personality gone home, and that trucker really is pissed thinking they really don’t care about me. I am one of a dwindling few that remembers, Charley Douglas, Dave Nemo, Bill Mack, the Truckin Bozo, and others. They kept their listeners there, because they were LIVE. At least for the first 4 hours of their 8 hour radio runs overnight, then it was just recorded and a rebroadcast of the first 4 hours. The idea of a 24/7/365 OTR truckers radio show is to warn of accidents , in climate weather etc. Entertain and inform, that was the goal. When our parent organization bought the remnants of both the Interstate Radio Network, and Utah’s JOC Radio, the foundation was and remains so to be the voice of the trucker, more over as it is today the Confederate Independent Truckers. Everyone it seems has went satellite, or such, FCC sheepskins are harder to come by. But the idea is to make sure that no trucker is left in the cold. No biker, ignored, no pilot flying deaf, and well, you get the idea, that’s the goal of HazzardAyre/Dixie-Diesel, Radio.
Any mile need to get off here and get ready to gain the altitudes of the airwaves, see ya’ll on the radio.
