For all fellow Parrot Heads out there, if you listen to Margaritaville Radio, either on Sirius/XM or on the internet at Margaritaville.com, listen for ME, the guest host (Fruitcake on the radio)! Yes, I am a guest host and have a 4 song set that I introduce, and it is being aired 4 times. Actually 3 more times, the first one was last night at 11:00pm ET.
It will be aired again tomorrow (Friday April 30) at 9:00am ET, and then again on Sunday (May 2) at 3:00pm ET and once more on Monday (May 3) at 9:00pm ET. It was a lot of fun doing it, and you too can be a guest host on Margaritaville Radio. Listen to my segment, and I’ll tell you how.
I will be at the JB concert May 22, and so will a couple of others from the Dallas area. Rpplano, I have some info for you I’ll send in a pm….I sent it to Laurafranks already.
Please excuse the shameless self promo, but I thought it was fun and you all might enjoy listening!
Later, and Fins Up!
-Bert

That's way cool!
I've thought about trying to do that, maybe your spot will inspire me to do something about it.
Will be checking it out on Sunday!

They asked me to pick 4 of my favorite JB songs, so I picked "Thank God the Tiki Bar is Open", "Margaritaville", "Rhumba Man", and "I Will Play for Gumbo". I told them I would play for Land Shark Beer as well.... 
It was kinda tough picking out just 4...
MB...you gonna be on the Bruce channel?

That is really cool, wish I had Sirius. But might pull out a few of my husband's old albums to listen to the ones I don't recognize. Probably just don't know the name of the songs.
That's not self promotion-that's fun!

You can listen to Margaritaville Radio for free on Margaritaville.com, you don't need Sirius/XM for that. They also broadcast all of the concerts live on Margaritaville Radio. Listen for us on May 22 from Frisco, Texas! I'm gonna try to be on Kirsten's show.

I believe she was referring to The Boss a.k.a. Bruce Springsteen

Shellseeker, you missed the wink. I followed "The Boss" in the 80's. I just can't resist tweaking anyone from NJ. They are as proud of Springsteen as Texans are of Willie. All good fun.

Right you are, Texas...totally missed the wink!
I'm not from NJ, but like many of you have been a fan of Bruce's since '74.
Bert, congrats on your being the guest host on Margaritaville Radio - how cool is that!
