PXYSJ Winners Guide

Tuesday, May 19th, 2009

98pxy_sj09_color.jpgMany of you have already won your way in to 98 PXY Summer Jam.  To you, I say, “Congrats.”

To those of you who continue to struggle with the whole, “listen to 98 PXY to win your way in” concept, I’m posting this helpful guide for you to reference in times of duress.

  • A busy signal means you should hang up and call back.
  • If no one answers right away we, a.) already have a winner, or b.)don’t want to listen to you ask questions about how to win 98 PXY Summer Jam invites.
  • Following us on Twitter and friending us on Facebook are excellent ways to win invites out of our personal stashes.
  • If you don’t know what Twitter or Facebook is, I don’t want to know you.  Your mom knows Twitter for God’s sake.
  • Should you be fortunate enough to make it through as caller 8, at least attempt to sound excited.
  • If excitement is too much to ask for, assume we’re going to get you off our phone line ASAP and call you names.
  • Once you win tickets, think about what outfit you’re going to grace us with on June 4th.
  • If your plan is to wear a Looney Tunes T-shirt, stay home.
  • E-mailing us your stories most likely WILL NOT result in you getting invites.  Everyone has a sick relative, and everyone knows a kid who did something good.  Have a cookie.
  • Bribing us with free anything increases your chances dramatically.
  •  Guys, odds are you’ll have a harder time getting through.  More women listen to PXY.  It’s a fact.
  • Also a fact, women have breasts.  Next case.

OK, seriously.  We’ve got so many different ways for you to win invites to PXY Summer Jam, really, all you have to do is keep listening.  It’s not that hard.  Thousands of people have figured it out already, you could be next!

Summer Intern Guide

Friday, April 24th, 2009

It’s nearly summer.  The weather is getting warmer, we’ve announced 98 PXY Summer Jam, and it can all mean only one thing…

Summer Intern season!

That’s right, whenever PXY invites the stars to our fair city, a whole new crop of interns apply at the radio station.  Today, a few tips to help get your foot in the door of the Broadcasting profession (or, at the very least, get you a backstage pass for June 4th).

  • Guys, don’t even think of wearing a suit.  Girls, size 2.  No excuses.
  • Assume we won’t even look at your resume.
  •  At least pretend that you listen to 98 PXY.
  • Laughing at our tasteless jokes will get you far.
  • DO NOT bring a demo or a friend’s demo.  Your/their music isn’t very good.
  • DO bring gifts.  Thx.

See you this summer! Go Team!

Spring Cleaning

Saturday, April 18th, 2009

We here at 98 PXY are no different than you.  We too, have the bug to get things in order for the new season.  Today, I went ahead and did some spring cleaning in the PXY studio.  I’m happy to report, I’m alive.  Though, I may need years of therapy to heal the emotional scars of today’s event.

10:28-Cleaning frenzy begins. I’m feeling pretty good.  Not seeing any left over coffee mugs or plates/silverware.  There’s a random can of Coke Zero on the counter. If you’re looking for it, check the 2nd floor fridge.  Sorry Megan, I haven’t seen your burrito. Armed with a Swiffer duster, I’m attacking every dust bunny I see!

10:38-I check underneath our main console.  Incredibly surprised that I didn’t find any boogers considering Kasper’s past.

11:11-Dusting the light fixtures in the studio.  Not lying.  It looks like it’s snowing in the studio.  It feels like I’m walking through the aftermath of a volcanic eruption. Checking my coffee to make sure there aren’t any dust bunny floaties.

11:40-FCC Operations Book?  What the hell is this?  Must be garbage…

11:46-Just threw up in my mouth.  Any guesses as to what this is?

mic-img00032-20090418-1148.jpg

That’s the microphone Scott talks into every morning.  Those little specks you see?  Yeah, that’s food.  There’s enough food in Spezzano’s mic to feed a 3rd world country!  Sorry, I’m not cleaning that.  I don’t get paid enough.

11:57-I send a Tweet to Entercom’s Executive Assistant to let her know we’re going to need more Swiffer Dusters.  Can’t help but to keep repeating the line from Jaws in my head, “We’re going to need a bigger boat!”

12:02-Fin.  Tell me those Swiffer duster’s don’t look like they’ve been through a war.  Someone get Mike Rowe on the phone.  Cleaning the 98 PXY studios?  It’s a Dirty Job.

Slogan

Tuesday, March 24th, 2009

For absolutely no reason at all, I want a slogan.  You know, like “98 PXY The #1 Hit Music Station!”  I’ve been trying to come up with one all day.  Here’s what I have so far:

  • Mike Danger I like chicken!
  • Mike Danger husband, father, sloth.
  • Mike Danger the musk of genius.
  • Mike Danger has a white guy’s butt.
  • Mike Danger can’t play basketball.
  • Mike Danger is everywhere.  Like ninjas.
  • Mike Danger almost a full head of hair!
  • Mike Danger could really use a Garbage Plate.
  • Mike Danger a grown ass man who still enjoys video games.
  • Mike Danger representin’ Hip Hop and R&B!
  • Mike Danger begging to If You Seek Amy.

What do you think?  Got any that are better?  What’s your slogan?
