boxovoices Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Umm... been there before... Simple version of the story is went out on Saturday night, got hammered until 3am, had to be on air at 6am, walked to the station from the niteclub, got on air and fell asleep just before the 8am news, woke up at 8.30am after being off air for 30 minutes. Moral of the story? Make sure you're in automation if there's a chance that you will fall asleep at the panel.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Equilizer Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Those sound like some funny stories. I have had a few nights where I did a 2+ hour show and hardly remembered it. (I used to do a weekly online multi-genre music show that I am in the process of starting back up.) One night me and my neighbor at the time did a show together after pounding a bottle of jagermeister and some beers. All I could remember that next day is that I had the owner of the station listening and quite a nice turnout. I do not remember anything in the chatroom. I wish I had some way of seeing what people were saying to me and about me. The next day I scanned through the show and found some songs that I didn't even know I had and still do not know where they are on my computer to this day. They were proceeded by drunken blabber about how I'm like that song. I ended up losing the recording before I even listened to much of it. It really pissed me off because I would have loved to hear what the hell went on that night. I do not think I completely bombed it because it gave people something to talk about. On another occasion my cousin came over and co-hosted the show with me. I had a half gallon of vodka in the fridge that me and him almost finished in that one night. I COMPLETELY bombed that one. After so long I was pretty much doing the show completely blind because I could not read and could hardly see. I found out later that I played the same horrible song over and over. The show ended with my cousin telling everyone he is driving home so of course everyone was worried. I ended up taking the keys from him and he passed out in the hallway downstairs. I then went back to check on the show and there was silence. I remember playing some kind of music after that then just a blur. I ended up waking up the next morning passed out on the keyboard, on the webcam, still broadcasting!! I tried to record that night but failed because I was too drunk to hit the right button. Hard telling what kind of stupid shit we said and did that night. That is all I remember about it. I miss broadcasting my show :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brutish Sailor Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 ......... My 5'th night on the air, and 17 listeners. All close friends. A guy who became a very close friend came over. First night using shoutcast directly from the on-board soundcard (realtek) and their was a glitch where I was on the air no matter what. I had been live 4 four hours shooting the bull. Talked about women, guys that annoy us, and probably half our listening audience. Radio gold! KNSJ.org / 89.1 FM San Diego Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norwood Radio Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 I would'nt normally dream of going on air drunk.... that was until the other night after the Man U match, I went on live messenger to abuse Stannage..lol which he took very well and gave me some back. Love him to bits.. then I went on air for the final 20 minutes before midnight, it was'nt as pleasant as I thought and I bottled out after 2 or 3 links.
