Welcome to 2009!
The brains behind the massively successful annual Trans Siberian Orchestra tours and multi-platinum discs, Paul O'Neill informed me during our on-air conversation several weeks ago that they had doubled the lights and pyro effects this year to up the ante... and he wasn't kidding. Seeing is believing.

The attention to detail with the "Winter Classic" between the Blackhawks and Red Wings was also a sight to behold. Even though we ended up on the losing side in the actual game, the event was a runaway success for Chicago and the Hawks. The national TV audience was the biggest to date and amply demonstrated to the world (along with the Obama Grant Park celebration) that we sure know how to throw a spectacular party here. Let's hope those folks from the International Olympic Committee were paying attention.
This week on the show, win tickets to 3 Doors Down/Seether February 21st at the Venue and a conversation with Pat Travers Wednesday night at 9:30pm.

So glad you are back. The last 2 weeks weren't the same without you on the air even though we know even the almighty Byrd needs a vacation!
