This Week On Treasure Island Oldies

Week of August 23rd to August 29th, 2009

I would like to thank Bruce Toews in Winnipeg, Manitoba for kindly offering the use of his Chat Room during this week's live show. Several servers at our network, insinc, were down, including our chat room server. I very much appreciate Bruce coming to the rescue so that the Nuts in the Hut could get together for their weekly visit. Everything should be back in order for next week's Annual Back to School Special. It won't just be back to school songs we'll play though. You'll also hear back to work songs as well as the last of the summer songs for the year. Looking forward to bringing you this annual special next week.

Hello to Sergio de Oliveira in Sao Paulo, Brazil, for the very nice email he sent to me. He commented that he always listens to the show. He also sent two Brazilian songs that I very much enjoyed hearing. Thanks, Sergio! I'd love to hear from you too. Send your note to michael@treasureislandoldies.com.

The Treasure Island Oldies Blog has The Animals with our Song of the Week, It's My Life. This was a brand new single when they performed this live on the TV show Hullabaloo, guest hosted by George Maharis from the popular TV show Route 66. Enjoy!

Voice Your Choice features the great Marty Robbins with two of his big hit songs: A White Sport Coat (And A Pink Carnation) and Devil Woman. Cast your vote for the song you'd like to hear. Click the Voice Your Choice button on any page of the website and make your selection. We'll play the winning song in the third hour of next week's show.

Don't forget to submit your photo for the Treasure Island Oldies Listener Gallery. It's great to have so many listeners in the gallery already, and your photo would make a great addition. Send your photo, name, city and state or province to michael@treasureislandoldies.com.

Finally, if you have a birthday coming up or would like me to wish Happy Birthday to someone special, send the details to me: name, birthday date as well and the city, province or state and country to michael@treasureislandoldies.com and I'll play our official birthday song, Birthday by The Beatles, to recognize the special day.

Have a great week.

Bye for now.

Michael
