Tomorrow is John Lennon's birthday. I'm wearing my Beatles t-shirt, that I bought in Las Vegas at the "Beatles Love" store at the Mirage. All afternoon I'll be taking requests so if you have a favorite Beatles or John Lennon song, give me a call at 245-9700 and I'll play it for you. It's just a small way to celebrate the life of such an influential person.
For those of you who are interested in knowing, I had lunch today with my old K-Bear morning show partner Jay. Jay sends his love to you all. I had a BBQ bacon burger while I believe Jay had some sort of chicken salad. It was nice to see my old buddy. We've been through a lot. I still remember the time that Jay mooned me when I was introducing a band onstage downtown one night. Sometimes, just before the sun rises as I'm halfway between sleep and waking, I can still see that bright white moon staring me in the face. Oh the horror!
Ok...enough chit chat. Time to prepare some Lennon tunes for the show.
Later!

Outlaws and Stuff
What a drag that the Billings Outlaws had to disband. It all seems to stem from one big miscommunication, or so the County Commissioners say. Adam Steadman, co-owner of the Outlaws, was on air with Livin Large Larry this morning. He is obviously stunned. So are the fans. Adam has the video tape of the meeting with County Commissioners where he says he can prove what was really said. I guess you can't dispute video. Just ask Paris Hilton. I feel that the county commissioners have done a disservice to the community for letting the Outlaws die. It was nice to have a championship caliber team here in Billings and it would have been something to look forward in the renovated Metra. I would have cut them some slack and tried to keep them, considering they are ultimately a victim of the Tornado from Hell, but what do I know? I wasn't at the meeting so I can't say for sure what happened.
Actually I have been to many meetings where I leave not knowing what just happened. One time I was at a meeting where the boss said the company was going through some "growing pains". For some reason I thought he said he was having "groin pains" and I spent several nights feeling sorry for him. One day I suggested that an ice bag in the lap might be helpful. I got a dirty look. See why communication is so important?

Good Morning!
Greetings!
Well after day one of blogging, I was up all night trying to come up with a cool name for the blog. After careful consideration, and many hours of painful inner reflection, I have decided on Matt's Blog-O-Mania. I think it pretty much says it all.
I'm going to get all hopped up on the caffeine and then I'll begin commenting on the events of the day. I'm steamed about the Billings Outlaws deal, but I don't want to blog angry...at least for now.
