THE WEEKENDER :) A SIDE TRIP

ROCK RADIO WARS
My long time pal, former colleague and blog mentor
Bruce Taylor, a.k.a. The Catalyst has been
dumbfounded about why I would leave the climes
of the California Central Coast for the bone chilling
temperatures of Indianapolis, especially since the 
Super Bowl is a couple of weeks away.
The reason is a red carpet premiere of a
a documentary in which I am interviewed.
Film maker David Fulton has flown a few of us who now live
on the west coast back to Indianapolis for a round of 
radio and TV interviews, VIP events and the screening
itself. Here's the trailer.
In the last couple of days I've been able to catch up with
former colleagues, see old friends and catch a whiff of the
Super Bowl mania in Indianapolis.
I've been on the 3 major television stations 
including where I anchored for many years.
 David was surprised by how cordial all of the 
television people have been.  I told him that is 
partially a result of having been colleagues
with people who now staff the stations.
The journey also provided a chance for a sentimental
visit to Muncie, home of my Alma Mater Ball State, 
my kid hood home and where my family members are
interred. It is also home to the Pizza King which is the 
home of the ground beef, barbecue pizza.
So, Bruce, even though it has not risen above
20 degrees, there has been some benefit indeed!
The VIP Party, Red Carpet, Limo ride and all of that
is tonight.
See you down the trail.

  2. The pizza looks interesting. SWMBO is just starting on her famed French Onion Soup.
