Guest DJ: Sully

Chris — Mon, 01 Mar 2010 17:13:50 +0000

Number 3. This time it’s Next Listener Sully. Please listen and leave him a comment. I am having a great time listening to your “shows”. I also want to thank you for taking time out of your busy lives to do this.

He came in with almost 20 songs and Growler of Green Flash IPA (which I’ll be opening tonight). Thanks. I have a feeling he will be back for another shot at guest DJing (and you can dj too just email me). I how the hell can someone in their right mind turn down listening to great music and a nice mircobrew IPA? That’s right you don’t. Hope you enjoy Sully as Guest DJ #3.

reel to reel

WOW…We are quickly approaching the 200th show for NEXT. I didn’t really notice until someone on this site suggested that I post the first NEXT show as a celebration. So travel back to the first show with me. Sponsored by Snapple. I completely forgot they were a sponsor. After listening to this NEXT show the feeling (not the tunes) has definitely morphed. Good/Bad? I don’t know. Oh and now that I actually remember the real NEXT birthday I might have to change my Facebook Birthday to the correct day.

This series of guest dj’s seems to be gathering speed and before we move on a thank you again to the first guest dj, Victor. Yes anyone can do this. You will have to gather 10 songs that make you happy. Put them on a flashdrive or burn a CD then get in touch with me. We will find a time for you to join me in the Peak studio to record your radio show. It takes about 2 hours. I record it. Give you a CD of the show then post it on the NEXT website.
