Next Stop...AFN Vicenza

I haven't been to work in well over a month. There are positives and negatives to that. The family and I are headed to AFN Vicenza (Italy) in two days. I'm not sure if I will have a morning show or not, but I am pretty sure I will be able to continue the radio marathons we had over at Freedom Radio. I really hope that all of my new friends who helped out over in Iraq are equally friendly and want to help out in Italy. I know it's not the same hardship duty!

So what do you say? Are you on board for the second annual: Memorial Day Countdown, Firecracker 500, and Labor Day A-Z??? You can either drop me a comment, or send me an e-mail: afnbroadcaster@gmail.com

Kasbah Radio On Break

Well, I'm back in the states. I will be in Italy by the end of November. Hopefully, I will pull a radio shift there too. Fingers crossed.

Kasbah Radio Back On Freedom Radio

I will be pulling three shifts during the Labor Day 72-hour Mega Mix A-Z show....

I've Been Promoted!

I was pretty bummed when I found out I didn't get promoted to E-7 this cycle. I studied real hard, but not hard enough obviously! Seems I wasn't the only one who felt pretty bummed. One of my new friends Ron Phillips (VO-BB), jokingly said he was going to get me promoted...one way or the other. I assume this is "the other" way he was talking about. All laughs aside, I'm very honored for this promotion. In fact, so was my Chief. He called everyone to attention and read the below letter.




I think if anyone, my Uncle Jim will be the proudest of this promotion. He's lived in Kentucky for like "ever!"

With this promotion comes the secret recipe for Kentucky Fried Chicken and a lifetime supply of Kentucky Moonshine. I can only share the later with all of you!

Firecracker 500

Well we are 24-hours into the big show. Here is a link to a 4mb audio file of the first 24-hours...Here is a promo pic too!

Operation Camel Back

(The Curious One's back, Aries "D" front right, Kasbah with chips, A.K. at con)

We have a new DJ on Freedom Radio. A.K. has all of two shifts under his belt. He's very funny and has a great spirit. The problem!!! All of his great qualities were not transfering over to his radio personality. So the team, minus A.K. came up with Operation Camel Back. We wanted to shock his system. Losen him up. So we did what any other DJ serving in Iraq would do. We brought in some near beer and chips. Enjoy!

Firecracker 500

Well...we're gonna do it again. This time 50-straight hours of radio broadcast. We're going to count down the 500 greatest songs of all time. Rock, Pop, R&B...it doesn't matter, we'll add them to the list and make it happen. Freedom Radio and The 4TH of July...Two great things that taste great together.

Well we all camped out at the station over night! Tonight's low...95! It must have been around 100 in the room I splept in. I went down around 11:30, then up again at 4:10AM. Here are a few pics from over-night.
