rayman

April 23 marks the birthday of James Buchanan, the man regarded by many historians as one of the worst—if not the worst—presidents of all time.He looks a lot like Rayman, could it be Rayman is such a good Jock on KOOL 101.7 because he is a lousy president.

I know this is just toilet humor, but it worked for Dumb and Dumber, speaking of that.....Rayman and I were discussing this one day. We tend to discuss science and how it affects our lives. Why does one soda make you belch more than another, which one makes you belch the most?

KOOL 101.7's afternoon legend, Rayman, was making the rounds and visiting with people around the radio station today when he decided to make a stop in the Digital Office where Tony Hart and I were hard at work. During his visit, we decided to test out his dance skills, and here's what happened.

In the category of "news that isn't news at all", Kim Kardashian and Kanye West had their baby daughter over Father's Day weekend, and now tabloid buzz is centered on what "Kimye" decided to call their little bundle of joy.

In the spirit of mischievous fun for April Fool's Day, I decided to play a little joke on everyone's favorite afternoon radio DJ.

Over my lifetime as I traveled through America, I've seen hundreds of talented musicians who never got the break they were searching for. You can see them on most any street corner in any major city, even right here in the Northland. Therefor, it's heartwarming to see a movie about a man who was a virtual unknown here in the U.S.,become as Rolling Stone magazine put it, a "certified supersta

It was on this day in 1983 that Australia's "Men At Work" achieved a first for any band from the biggest Island in the world. Both the song "Down Under," and the album from which it came "Business As Usual," topped their respective charts here in America...

On this day in 1970, George Harrison kicked off four weeks at the number one singles chart with My Sweet Lord. George became the first Beatle to have a number one hit in America.

A few weeks a go I posted on The Bell Boys, and their gig at the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas. The boys are home for the Holidays, but before they return to Vegas for another gig at the Hard Rock, they will be are performing in Lake Nebagamon.

The Stones have uploaded a photo with the titles of 22 songs written on it to their official Twitter account. The band is rehearsing in Europe right now for their upcoming four-date tour, and it's a list of songs they’re rehearsing. Here’s the Stones playlist along with the songs I'd swap to substitute. I've highlighted my picks (swaps) in black. Let me know what you think.

You can tell a lot about a person by the type of music they listen to, so I thought I'd let you get inside the Rayman's head. I'll share with you some of the songs I've listened to on my phone this past week with Spotify. If you don't have Spotify, no worries, You can download it here  for free..I have twenty songs in my playlist, I'll just mention a few and why I like them.

I'm going to take what I'm sure is an  unpopular view on this story and defend Prince. Songwriters, musicians, actors etc. are just that. Their call in life is to perform and entertaine period. If you asked Prince (or any other major star) what his net worth is, or what he owes in taxes, he wouldn't have a clue.
