January
19th, 2014 to January 25th, 2014
It always surprises me just how quickly the four hours go by every week
while doing the show. The pace of the programming, the emails, the chat room
and all the great interaction make the time fly. The Chat Room was also busy and we welcomed back Shirley from Cincinnati, Ohio.
She’d been having problems with her computer and was unable to come by the chat
room for a period; but everything is back to normal for her. Welcome back,
Shirley. Everyone missed you and your company. And we’d more than welcome your
company as well. On Sunday nights during the Live show, come to the website and
click Chat. Follow the instructions
and you’ll soon be among a nice group of people who have become good friends
over the years.
Isn’t it hard to believe that it’s been 50 years since The Beatles appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show and their popularity
went through the roof. I mentioned on the show that I’ll be featuring a
different Beatles songs from 1964 weekly on the BBC – Big Beatles Classic – feature on the show during the first half
hour.
Happy
Birthday wishes go out this week to Fred
Waterer in St. Catharines, Ontario
and to my sister, Louise Godin, in Gatineau, Quebec. And if you have a
birthday approaching, let me know by sending the details to birthdays@treasureislandoldies.com.
I’ll wish you Happy Birthday on the air and also play Birthday by The Beatles
for you.
