i'm sad
Edited on Sun Sep-11-05 12:22 AM by Faye
when i post in GD, no one replies.

when i post in the Lounge, i only get replies when i do something ridiculous.

what do i have to do to get some attention? i'm drinking Guinness, so anything is possible. :cry: :hi:

2. My dear Faye...
Please don't be sad...some nights threads just don't get a lot of attention...

Mine is languishing...even though a BUNCH of my friends are here...

:shrug:

14. Pretty good, thanks for asking...
I haven't had a Guiness since my serving days in Chicago. It's a great beer, though! You have good taste!

Just hangin' out--Pondering the meaning of life, etc...(lol)

10. Don't worry about it
I'm invisible in GD all the time and in The Lounge in the daytime when I post; you're safe here w/ us Nighthawks:)

13. Hey!
I'm doing good; doing my overnight show right now; I'm also programming the next week's worth of stuff on the station, too. And posting here:)

How are you?

15. Good thanks!
Do you have your own radio station--or do you work at one (owned by others)?

Funny how it's always the same people here, late at night...

I've always been a night owl, though.

16. It's mine
I own it and program it, though we have a number of DJ's (including our own Mr. Scorpio) that have shows. We've got a nice following across the world; it's an absolute blast to do...

I've always been a nightowl, too; all my life..

18. I probably should have been a dj--perfect hours for me...(lol)
It sounds like a lot of fun-- and a lot of work for you. Hopefully not too much.

What kind of music do you program?

Daytimes are for the boring...

19. everything
I play everything from Motorhead to Edith Piaf to Hank Williams to The Tragically Hip; often in a row:) It's the kind of show they'd never let me play on a bloodless corporate station, which is why it's so fun to do..

20. That's so cool!
Got any Ella Fitzgerald, Josephine Baker or Lena Horne? If you're feeling jazzy--

Is it expensive to run the station?

21. I've got Ella in the rotation right now!
I can get some Josephine and Lena to; what songs would you like?

It's not too bad to run it; I could probably make money w/ it, but I'm too lazy too:)

23. Ella's amazing!
I love Josephine's theme song 'J'ai Deux Amours.'

Lena Horne? -hmmmm, how about Stormy Weather, in honor of Katrina?

Are you with 365--the internet radio company?

24. That's who streams us
Despite their "tempramental" server going kablooey every so often, they've been good to us....

I'll get the requests on for tomorrow night's show:)

17. You don't have to do anything
other than be yourself. That's more than good enough for me. :)

27. The best, most thorough posts in GD don't get replies.
People agree with them so well there's no need to reply.

It's all been said. :)
