I noticed Pam Kelly in the middays this week instead of John Prince? Has he left the station?

Just heard her doing evenings @ K-Hits tonight which was kind of a surprise to me. I haven't been able to listen in the evening for a couple of weeks so I'm not sure if her being on K-Hits evenings is new or has it been going on for a while.

Poops
 
He must be.... His picture has been removed from both websites.

Big loss for Cox if its true, John is a seasoned pro in the biz, and one heck of a nice guy!!
 
His contract was probably up with Cox and probably wanted more money. Cox here just will not pay and will not keep any form of stability!

Pam Kelly moves from middays to PM drive at 80’s outlet KHPT/Houston replacing John Prince who exits.
 
Congrats to Pam. She's a class act.

I don't know how John was on the air, but in the hallways a few years back, he was always a super-nice guy. Best of luck to him.

Toonville, Did nobody tell you? EVERYONE is scripted. You dont get a choice. "Seasoned Pros" are gonna sound exactly like liner jocks because they must read the liner exactly as written. Thats all.

It is sad. I can't even listen to Paul Christy anymore, because they have tied his hands. His personality rarely shows, because he's reading a bunch of straight liners and scripted crap. I just don't know why people are so ****ing scared to let good jocks do their thing?! This is why I like KILT-FM. Country isn't my favorite format, but their people are allowed to be personalities.

I just assumed Prince had a contract.
 
I'll say this for Prince. He sounds good, and fits the format wherever he lands--- KIKK, KLOL, Oldies, traffic, or MIX, whatever. He's outstandingly versatile. A number of people you think of as "stars" can only do what they do, and nothing else. I've heard him in looser programming, in fact interacted w/ him on party broadcasts, and he did everything you would want.

Here's what I cant believe no one has ever suggested: If I were John P, I would go to Hollywood. John Prince would make one bad-azz MOVIE BAD GUY! Dude, why didnt you audition for the Sopranos??? You can make $$$$ ! Sure, you gotta get killed by Arnold or Chuck or the Rock, but man, its $$$$$$ and chicks, and a fast car!

One day, we're gonna be over at the Edwards eating popcorn, watching carnage w the kids, and then we'll point up and shout, "I know that bad guy!" Prince will land on his feet somewhere.

Speaking of versatile, I know Pam K. well enough to know her road hasnt exactly been a bed of roses either. PK can do the job w/ one hand tied, and pregnant too. If I was pregnant, not only could I not work, but I would lay around moaning all day.
 
Ahhhh yes, but if YOU were pregnant... you also be making some big bucks selling your story to the movies so you could afford to lay around and moan.
 
And, if YOU were pregnant, that would require someone actually having had sex with you!



...unless you're from Bethlehem or something....and even then you have to be a virgin. Didn't you grow up on a farm? Kinda rules out the virginity thing, huh? ;D
 
Yall see why folks love working with me--- I just toss it up there softly, so you can ----BAAAAAM! Hit it out of the park!

Make you look like the stars you are. hahaha...
 
I'm just wondering, if I were Pam, if I'd want my pregnancy announced/exposed/discussed on an Internet board.
 
Why? I seriously doubt its a problem, but I'll ask. A lot of us have kids, you know. Nothing to be ashamed of.

Anybody heard from Prince?
 
*sigh* Yes, a lot of us have kids, but how much of your personal life do you want other people to expose on an industry Internet board? Shouldn't something like that be Pam's choice? Since she rarely posts here, herself, it seems out of line to me that anyone would bring it up. I've heard from others who have expressed the same opinion.

It's a question of personal boundaries. Just because you know something about someone else in the business doesn't mean you should share it with the world.
