Well it looks like Lac La Biche was a short pit stop for me, looks like I'm on to the next job.
I always wondered what it would be like to tell a staff, that you're so close to and enjoy working with so much, that you're packing the bags after being here for a few months.
I mean the morning show is starting to sound good. And we have a really solid team here at Big Dog, but alas all good things do come to an end, and we move on.
I accepted a job in Grand Falls New Brunswick where I was approached and offered the morning show position. With a little chatting and thinking I decided to take it. Not only will I keep the morning show, but I also move closer to home, which was my ultimate goal in the first place.
It really sucks telling those who you work with that you're leaving in two weeks. After all, they are my only friends here, and we hung out almost every day. They're kick ass guys! But hopefully no hard feelings will be held.
But I pack my bags on November 14th to head across this lovely country of ours yet once again. November 24th is my new start date for K93 in Grand Falls. Hopefully some of you will be able to visit now :)
Take care, and Scott and Dan, you guys rock man, thanks for making my experience in Lac La Biche all the best.

Holy Cow I'm Totally Going So Fast... AWWWW FWAHWWWK!!!
Well I suppose it's about that time where I update this thing again. I've really been quite the procrastinator when it comes to this blog! Oh well, I guess that's what I get for being crazy busy these days!
I'll start of with the exciting news! We can now listen to Radio Humber on resnet! After spending two hours on the phone with IT the other day it finally paid off! I was so excited once they emailed me back and told me they had it fixed. And then of course I told everyone on my floor that they can tune in online now, and also messaged Diana as soon as I found out because I know she would be enthralled. So that was the extent of my excitement for the past few weeks.
Aside from that my seminar was on Friday, and OH BOY! Quite the technical difficulties I had! I was all ready to go and super pumped. I even went over early to print off the essay (which took me hours to write by the way!) , printed up all the slides to give out to classmates and then ran back to residence with about 20 minutes to spare to get all dressed up in my suit and ran back over ready to go!
That's the good news, bad news is that it didn't go over so well. I had some technical difficulties! I brought my laptop over because I did my powerpoint in OpenOffice. And I knew for a fact that it wasn't going to save my audio correctly because it's a piece of junk program when it comes to importing audio. So I figured I'd plug the speakers into my laptop and the projector into it as well. WRONG! The speakers wouldn't fit at first, and so I was like: "Oh! Okay I'll just use my key and hopefully redirect the sound to the correct path once it's open in powerpoint..."... WRONG AGAIN! I forgot my key in my room! So I borrowed a key from a classmate and transfered the files over to the desktop PC on the media cart... It didn't work! Wouldn't let me redirect the audio. So I was freaking out, and Paul ran out to his car to grab me speakers, which I was so thankful for. Here's where it gets a little bit sticky, while he was out I managed to get the speakers hooked up to my laptop! I felt so bad when he got back.
MOVING ON! The presentation kicked off and I thought it was going well, but I really didn't get that much of a reaction from Paul, which is the exact opposite of what I wanted. He just kind of sat there. All I'm hoping for is that I get above an 80% because I put a LOT of work into this seminar, and if it's lower than an 80 I'm going to be terribly upset! But a few classmates seemed to really like the presentation, as it really showcased where we are headed with automation systems and voice tracking, as well as the affects MP3 players are making on our future careers.
I'm glad it's over and done with though, because I've been working crazy hard on it for the past few weeks to make it look awesome and sound great. It ran around 30-40 minutes too which is great! That's exactly what I was hoping for!
In other news we've got a final project coming up for On-air Performance, and this is a pitch for a radio station. Now I was originally thinking a HOT AC station but now I'm kind of leaning towards a new rock/classic rock station. I think it might target the audience a bit better and there aren't really to many stations in that area that serve rock (aside from Wingham I believe?). But the problem is my group really isn't showing any initiative towards it! That's why I HATE group work, oh well I hope that it turns out well in the long run. I think I might as well make the pitch to them tomorrow about changing our format a little bit from what we originally planned.
And lastly I leave you with a list of my up and coming band. Starring Diana and myself (and possibly a few special guests!). Oh... don't worry, we are completely serious when we say we are recording these and making a full length album to these songs. Without further ado! I give you "Chair Metal Music Factory"!
1) Craig McKenzie Drinks From A Goats Horn
2) Smelling Dill Pickles in Kirk's Room
3) Julian Hasn't Kidnapped Diana Yet
4) Machine Gun Tom
5) Pineapple
6) Public Defecation On S2
7) Mangos The Tropical Fruit
8) It's Current Negative Four In The City Of Toronto Right Now (Joe Pogue Remix)
9) Tonight I Killed My Brother At Pearson Airport
10) Jane And Finch (University Heights My Ass)
11) My Wife Is Black (Those Sideburns Are Dirty)
12) **BONUS TRACK!! WAIT FOR THE CD!!**
And yes... that's our track listing. Keep your eyes peeled. We're going to be SOCAN registered AND put our music up on MySpace... yeah... that's right... MySpace!

It's Been Awhile, But No! I Didn't Fall Off The Face Of The Ea...
I suppose it's about that time that I update this crazy little blog. I've got a lot to talk about, since it's been awhile. I like to procrastinate, what can I say!
First off, I'll recap on what has been happening these days. Midterms are over, I've gotten my marks back. And I'm quite pleased to say that I'm sitting on the honors role right now. Which I was very happy with when I got the marks back for my midterms. Sitting at an 82% average which is pretty sweet.
So a few weeks back I went to the movies with Craig, Ashley, Anne and Stacey, to see 30 Days of Night. I have to say, I was a little bit disappointed with this movie. And I think that everyone else was as well. The whole story was pretty cool, but the ending was... well... kind of lame! Since it was a comic book to movie conversion it's understandable that they did the ending the way they did, because it would have been great to read in a comic book. But it just doesn't convert over to movie all that well.
Went to see Saw IV, it was quite the movie. Very gory as most of the Saw franchise is. It was quite a fun time, we went with the radio crew and afterwards headed back to residence and I decided to have a few drinks. It was pretty sweet though. I've never really hung out with the gang before outside of school. So that was really cool to see them outside of the radio environment.
Voicing, Voicing and more Voicing! I've been doing a lot of voice work lately. And I'm not complaining! I enjoy doing voice work, it's been a lot of fun, but it's also kept me extremely busy! And even more busy is putting music into the station. I've been getting music left and right, and the best part is, we finally got accepted to DMDS to have an account for brand new releases! So no worries about buying those new singles now! It's kind of neat because now we can get those brand new singles from those big Canadian bands and sound a bit more like CHUM FM. But I've been trying to add approximate around 20-30 songs each week. Trying to increase the database. We're up to 2013 songs now! YAY TEAM! And I can't help but thank Diana for all her contributions to the music as well. She totally rocks!
I decided to give Nathan and Amanda a call last night. It was good to catch up with both of them. I was kind of on a calling spree I guess you could call it. But I told them both that I'd be home on the 15th of December, so be sure to book it off work, because we would be going out that night for some fun times. I was telling them both about the Cuba trip and told them they better start saving their pennies!
Speaking of Cuba, I got a message back from my aunt. She has two resorts that she found, pretty good prices too, so I'm trying to convince a few others to join us for the trip. Which is going to be a total blast! I can't wait, I'm already extremely excited about it, and it's like four months away! It should be really fun to get away with friends for a week in a nice tropical place like Cuba though. I just want to lounge and have a good time, sip on some cocktails on the beach. The nice warm weather will be perfect for the spring break temperatures we have here in Toronto.
Speaking of temperatures, we are dropping quickly! Last week we were in the double digits. Now we're down to the single digits! It's getting a little bit chilly, but it's still not going to be as cold as it will be for Christmas in the east coast. They don't get the cold we get back home, here in the city. Which is a good thing I guess, but it's a different kind of cold. It's a bitter, dry, cold.. But it doesn't drop down to -20 like we get back home. I think last year alone I only saw a couple centimetres of snow, and never anything below the -10's. Which is great! Because that's nice and warm compared to what I'm used too!! Hopefully it won't get too cold this year, hope I didn't just jinx it by saying that.
So as of right now, I'm sitting here waiting for my next traffic report! I'm really enjoying the radio shifts. They have switched to four hours now, which is making for longer shifts, but also for less air time. I only seem to be getting one hosting shift, and one traffic and entertainment. And I hear Andy seems to be getting the same. So my theory behind it all, not to sound conceited or anything, but I think Jerry may be scheduling the people who need a little bit more experience on the boards more then the others that are sounding fine on air. Which I guess makes sense, I'd just like a little more air time. But we did bring it forward to Jerry that about a 9-11pm shift, and also a 7-9am shift. Of course it would be all volunteer, it wouldn't be necessary. It would be for the people who want some more airtime on the station because they aren't getting enough airtime. At least that's the way I feel.
And that brings me to tell you about the Broadcast Tour that I ended up doing yesterday for grade nine high school students. I was pretty pumped to be doing this. But apparently they weren't interested in Radio, TV or Journalism at all. It was kind of bombshell! No one enjoyed it, at least they didn't seem to enjoy it! I tried my best, was asking as many questions to them as possible, and there was absolutely no response. It was like the sound of crickets when I asked a question. Oh well, I tried my best, at least it was a fun experience for me, I got to give a tour of an awesome broadcast centre and there was no response! I guess these kids don't like the media! I've never given a tour before so I was a bit nervous myself, so it was definitely a great experience for me either way.
We now have Radio Humber tshirts! I'm very excited, bought it yesterday, and am sporting it right now while I'm on the air. It's great, the only complaint I have, is the fact that there is a HUGE logo on the back, but no logo on the front what so ever! I'm thinking what I might do is go and get the front embroidered with my name, my position, and the station below that, so at least there will be something to read on the front and it won't seem so blank! It's still cool though, now all the radio students can sport the radio humber tshirts around campus, and we won't just see those annoying Humber Fire tshirts everywhere... hahahah...
Anyway, I guess that's really all to update on, I'm sure theres a few other things I may think of as time goes on, perhaps I'll do another post if I do. Have a good one!

The Red Roses are Black
Have you ever heard of a band called ICON & The Black Roses? Well they're broken up, but I found myself listening to them most of today. I LOVE the sound of gothic rock/metal/love metal if you must. It's such a satisfying sound, and it's VERY emotional music. You can feel the music so much when you listen. It's very much atmospheric.
I almost wish they were Canadian so I could play them on Radio Humber. Actually, I DO wish they were Canadian, because I would love to play them on Radio Humber. Speaking of that actually, I added a few brand new hits. I've got Finger Eleven's new single on the station in rotation now (hey look that rhymed! lol) and also the new single from Major Maker. Most of you probably don't know the band, well if you remember the swedish berry commercial made by Maynards the candy company, you will know the song Rollercoaster. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJ7pGMfVNVg)
I like added new hits, because we aren't getting to many of them lately, and people haven't really been sending me music like they are suppose too. I guess it's because we've been having trouble downloading the music. It won't import into the software for some reason, so it doesn't really matter all that much. I've just been adding music from my own collection, and from CDs that have gotten mailed to the station. I think we need more new music then classic hits. Because seriously, who knows of the band Kayle anyway? I've never heard of them before, not bad music, but no one knows of these bands. We need more popular hits, at least that's my take on it. Perhaps I'm wrong, but I've added a few smaller bands that are doing extremely well for themselves so far. Joel Plaskett, Matt Mays, Pride Tiger, Billy Klippert, Tomi Swick to name a few. They're great artists that are climbing slowly into fame.
Back to ICON & The Black Roses... I love the sound, and I wish I could have a sound a lot more unique like theirs when I'm recording. My next album I want to be a lot more darker then my current, and I'm thinking about taking the approach of Gothic rock. Because I love the sound, I just need to get a really nice distortion pedal to give it that dark, deep, and overpowering grunge to it. I think I could really write some superb music to the sound. And since I have my electric here, I could make some crazy sounds. Not that I want to stray away from the acoustic sound of things, because the major aspect of Gothic music is the acoustic sound, combine with the electrical grunge distortion. It's just very emotional music, and my music is driven by emotions and every day happenings.
Worst thing is the band is no longer together. They could have been very successful in my opinion. Jonny Icon could have had something really going for him, but they broke up shortly after recording their first album and no one really heard anything afterwards. I LOVED the fact that they had both male and female vocals. And if I can find someone to sing with me on my next record it would absolutely thrill me to do so. But a lot of people don't like singing, even if they know they have talent, they don't want to help out. Oh well, I might just have to go with my lone male vocals again on this album.
Either way, it's just a thought, and I think I might go through with it if I can get myself a nice distortion sound to give it that gothic/love/metal/rock sound. Because I love the sound and it will fit my lyrical writing style perfectly. It's so dark, but enlightening at the same time, it's because the lyrics are based on love and emotion, which is what my lyrics are based on. Maybe I've found a perfect genre for my lyrical content? We'll just have to wait and see.
And finally, I leave you with a picture of the finalized version of my current album. I'm thrilled to say it turned out very well...

Yeah... Unfortunately, I Live On R3...
When someone asks what floor I live on, I almost hate to respond... "Yeah... Unfortunately, I live on R3". And everyone knows the floor, and how immature people can be on it..
Why do people have to be some immature?! And not just sometimes, but ALL THE TIME! I can't believe this floor sometimes, last night there was a guy that kept coming into my room and turning off my lights. He kept doing it every five minutes too. The worst part of it all was he was drunk and he probably doesn't remember doing it. Oh it's great being on a floor where the majority of them act like 15 year old high school students. I'm sorry I just had to rant about that, it's bothering me that I have to put up with this. I thought it would last a few weeks at the most but it's been a month now, almost a month and a half! Grow up!
On a side note, we had an R6 reunion last night, a bunch of people showed up last night and we got together to have a meal and a few drinks. It was quite a fun night, and it was great to see everyone again (well not everyone). Dylan came in from New Jersey, Shawn and Yuuki drove from various locations here in Ontario. And of course all the rest of us still live on residence. There was even an appearance from Phil, which we weren't expecting, but that was cool.
It's going to be a busy week, I have quite a bit to do, I have a radio lab assignment that's due on Monday which I still have NO ideas on what I'm doing for the assignment. We'll just have to wait and see, try and figure out what I'm doing tonight I guess. I'm not a fan of some of these assignments Cross is giving us, but then again it's something that might happen in the real world. I mean, I'm sure we'll be getting assignments or things to do in a real station that we aren't necessarily think are "fun times". I guess it's just because I'm a LOT busier this year then I was last.
Not sure what the plans are for tonight, we'll just wait it out and see I guess. Taker easy!

Why do people have to be some immature?! And not just sometimes, but ALL THE TIME! I can't believe this floor sometimes, last night there was a guy that kept coming into my room and turning off my lights. He kept doing it every five minutes too. The worst part of it all was he was drunk and he probably doesn't remember doing it. Oh it's great being on a floor where the majority of them act like 15 year old high school students. I'm sorry I just had to rant about that, it's bothering me that I have to put up with this. I thought it would last a few weeks at the most but it's been a month now, almost a month and a half! Grow up!
On a side note, we had an R6 reunion last night, a bunch of people showed up last night and we got together to have a meal and a few drinks. It was quite a fun night, and it was great to see everyone again (well not everyone). Dylan came in from New Jersey, Shawn and Yuuki drove from various locations here in Ontario. And of course all the rest of us still live on residence. There was even an appearance from Phil, which we weren't expecting, but that was cool.
