The Host of "Pirate Radio" with chris sheppard, was
never seen again..haha, just kidding !!

:::: Karey Grey, as mentioned he was at the edge, after returning
from various markets, including denver, colorado.

:::Some planet-DJ's, stayed w/in the niagara radio group,
in different aspects.

of course, dj-drahkar(?sp) is still on 101.1 -tune in fridays!!-
funky dred, tune in to mission control..sat nites.

::::Big D, was the morning man at energy, until pickle moved
in, and then moved out. He then went to y108 for a number
of years, but currently is not there.

"Lorraine K" a decade ago or so, was at energy108. Well,
no one is there, including lorraine, whereabouts: unknown.

"Downtown" dan (last name, available upon request) went to
z103, went to ottawa, and returned to toronto, as "Dan kelley"
on chum-fm..some on-aire, and last check, production "God"

"FreeStuff" Guy, rob white went to 97.7 in late 2005.

"Lowell" the goofy sidekick, is still in the wny area..
working in a non-radio field, but is doing okay for himself
(he reports he misses radio).

Jammin' Todd Edwards, still in niagara falls..and is reachable
thru email..although, he hasn't emailed me/or i haven't emailed
him, in an extended period of time.

I spotted "marsha" about 3 years ago, at a local spot, and
she seemed pleased with what she is doing now..

Last Time I checked: the North Avenue office space for the Buffalo
location of prizes, operations,etc..was a stuffy doctor's/lawyer's
office...but, a few fri. and sat. nights in the fall 0f 2005,
it looked like the "other" place to party and just hang out : )
on the elmwood strip..

any one else, just ask.
That is all i can think of at this point in time.

thanks for the info...
just for the record I'm working in TV now much much more money than radio, although radio is tons of fun, I went by the name dj scott back in the planet days from there I went to the edge (103.3) and then to 97 rock after a dispute with Rick Wall. Also Marsha introduced my to my wife. Like I said thanks for the info.

I loved the Planet - Kerry was awesome in pm drive and then mornings. I really liked the whole music mix played on The Planet and will always remember the launch with non stop U2 ;-) Long Live FM 101 The Planets Niagaras New Rock Alternative :) Geez I might have to go get out some my old Planet airchecks :)
 
knew i forgot some one : )

dj-Scott..i knew i forgot some one..this will take you back.
I met you twice..Once, in a retail parking lot, as you
were coming into the store, with the black tee (planet of course),
and i was leaving the store. We chatted, for a few minutes,
as i endlessly praised you for being an awesome dj on
theeee best station..Following that, I went to see you
at a station event, and met another planet phenom...do
you remember, "Dj-light bright" ?

And, as i was typing this, made me think of another..
Legendary-BUFFALO-deeJay, -x-0-tec, [chris], i hope
i spelled that right.

"Club Extreme, SCREeeeeeeeeeaAAAM !!!!" : )

sidenote. Fave planet "event" (besides free-music friday : )

Mine: the friday the 13th(12/13/96) Christmas Party!!
(Temperance : ) was soo awesome..

Runner UP: chris sheppard, live at cell block,niagara falls, ontario.

Cheers

Xotec (pronounced ex-oh-tek) currently resides in the Rochester area, and is still DJ-ing (though not as much as he used to....).

Word has it a certain board member is related to him.....
 
*forgot* Two ( one obvious; one obscure)

> Well, every one (including me) forgot to post about:

Voice-Guy, Jon Summers..every one knows where he still is : )

The one ( including me) every one forgot about, and for good reason:
(since i have never heard of him again, in over a decade
until now) was one of the first/early planet's morning
show combo (tammy J) she is still doing her thing, but
teamed up with..."Dave justice" ( where is that guy, prolly
check the morgue ?!) I heard he liked to party; and if he
made it out of radio, i am curious to know where he is now...
 
Whaaaaats Going onnnnnn!?

Yep The Jammin One Jammin Todd Edwards here... Thanks to Dj Drakkar for getting me hooked on the message board. Well Im here, Still spinnin away within the confines of Club 54 in Burlington Ontario. Ive been a busy boy since back in the day... freakin crazy at times!! I started a Radio Syndication Service back in 1999 and ran with it successfully for a few years then went to a radio station to do production in Newmarket Ontario. I was promised a fulltime gig there and was stated that it was fulltime till I was informed that they only needed me P.T. Not such a good gig afterall when I needed to pack up and move 200 kilometers away. So I resignated and concentrated my efforts on Syndicating. Needless to say it fell apart with time and now the project just lays dorment. I was reading the message board here and cant forget the "Clubbbbb Extreeeme Screaaaaam" That was just a whim when I recorded that live @ Club Extreme and will lay as a classic within the radio commercial world and thanks to Barry Hayes who produced that Gem! haha What a blast. Anyways.... I was to start @ Wild 101 doing a mixed show back last year (2006) and was in talks with David Dancey and Rob White (when he was PD) I just needed to refresh myself with the equipment in the studios. Last word I received was that I was to get in contact with Dave Universal to set up a time and date to have my first on-air shift. Needless to say, No return phone calls were ever followed up (on Wilds end) therefore the opportunity just fizzled out... Will see whats gonna happen with them in the next while though for radio opportunites in the next while.

As Far as I last spoke to Big D which was last month, hes located in London now where he's doing the morning show on Energy 103.. Corrus keeps bumpin him around but with the contract that he drew up with them, they have to keep him gainfully employed.. Good for him!

Downtown Dan is working for CHUM in Toronto also doing Production voice overs with his company called Ear Candy productions

Lauraine Kristy is doing copy for Country 95.3/Y108fm

Rob White is @ 977 hitzfm as promotions director

Bary Hayes is somewhere out there..

and Im just lost hahaha!
 
Way TMI

For the record said:
Kerry is doing mornings at Jack 92.5 in Toronto. They have an unbelievable commercial on the website.

And yes, he is naked!

It may be a long time before I eat eggs again. "Kerry" is now permanently associated with "cholesterol".
 
This is actually an old thread!
Someone just added to it (with good information, respectfully)<---I stand corrected...Energy 103???? They've been fresh FM for quite some time...there's something fishy about that posting...

Also note:(updating my comments from 2006) Anwar Knight has recently left Global to do weather for CTV, and Mike Kuss has also left Global to do weather for the new sister station (recently purchased) City tv.

At this time, I still have some faith in the idea that 101.1 will be going country, but there's still no fact intended...
 
The Planet and 14X proved to Buffalo radio execs that there was a market for Alternative radio in Buffalo. Prior to that they were too scared to play new music and we were stuck with classic rock and hair metal retreads. It lead to the evolution of the Fox into the Edge. It's funny how things come around though as the Edge seems to be more of a mainstream rock station than alternative now (when they are not playing talk shows). It would be nice to hear a real alternative station like that in Buffalo again. The Edge in Toronto is good, but Can-Con and thier boring personalities make it hard to listen too for long periods.
 
...Must be this thing called alzhiemers setting in hahaha
Bro. It's not my intent to officious. But as someone who's seen people afflicted with this hideous condition, Alzheimers disease is nothing to joke about. I know you were just trying to be humorous and I can appreciate that. Be a mench (Yiddish, "good guy, salt of the earth") and take some time to read the link. And if you can, help out and spread the word. By the way, Alzheimers doesn't strike only "old people." It's a nasty disease. Thanks.
[/MR]
 
Obviously this radio board must have stemmed into a Discovery Health board, since I last posted which is cool, but the facts are I know the disease and I know it well. Not that I need to get in anything personal on this board, (About a particular family member that is very very VERY close to me that has this debilitating disease) but my intent is not to be officious, because of a "brain freeze moment". It's an off the cuff remark, for others to have a chuckle just because sometimes Im human just like everyone.... that’s it, that’s all. (the other times Im just an off the wall nut.. Oh gawd here comes another post! LOL)

As far as others see this message... pass the word along about this disease. It is a severe life changer especially for the caregivers and its victims!

Thanks! :)

Is this now considered a PSA thread? ???

Hey dood.. I will be at Club 54 in Burlington on St Pattys day :) http://www.club54.ca/superdance.html Way back play backs from back in the day and also a little urban n reggaton but I definately stress on "the Club" to be the founding area where "Club Music" is found and to be expected. Check out the videos, seems that the videos were always recorded when I was in a classic way back set LOL!

See you on the "flipside"
and make sure you come up to the booth to drop a "hi"

Cheers
Todd Edwards
