See You At Nine

 |
My idea of radio is to play music, keep the talking short! You can expect in a 60 minute period to hear from 13 to 26 songs. Normally, I play 3 or 4 sets ranging from 15 to 20 minutes each. Sets are separated with song name, artist, and the year it was released or placed on the charts. Ask me about Mobile DJ work for your special event.

Requests
I put the show together after work on Friday and take the music with me. If you have a music request please e-mail it to me before Friday. I'll add it to the show. Please remember, the song must be within the time frame of 1955 and 2000 and I check the lyrics for radio play.
History
The show was first aired fall semester 1980 on Saturday night from 9:00 PM to 11:00 PM. I forget when it moved to Friday.
How the show got its name
We were talking about the radio station in the Heth Center. Our radio director, Jennifer Roth wanted a "Rock and Roll" name for this show. I didn't want to get into names, and joked calling it "see you at nine". Since it would air at 9. When I arrived to do the show, the name See You At Nine was on the program log. And it has stuck ever since.
Playlists
I started scripting shows in 1981. A couple are listed below to illustrate the diversity of music played. Some shows are based upon themes - my generation, relationships, 60s revolution, cars, cities/towns, clothes, food, years, etc. I have also dedicated shows to songwriters such as Willie Dixon.
The following playlists are significant to me:
-
The night before I got married March 26, 1982,
Three days before my daugther was born December 28, 1990,
and the first Friday after JoAnna was born January 4, 1991.
