June 5, 2009

Randy Rodgers Band was playing at Wild Country and we lined up a Meet and Greet to contest out for US105 and here are pictures of the line to get in, the band and the crowd right when they concert was about to start. I left and went and sat outside... Its slowly becoming evident that I am starting to dislike crowds...

Another thing that we have been doing at work is a promotion for our rock station called Eagle Eye Candy. Basically it is my job to find the hottest girls in the area and convince them to do a photo shoot with me, where I put the pictures on the Eagle website and they get a copy of the pictures. Easy sometimes and hard at others. This night I was at a club and we crowned the Miss Denim and Diamonds. It was 'interesting'... I was really there to just scope out women for the Eagle Eye Candy thing, cause in my mind if they were willing to get up on stage for a competition like that, then they would be willing to let me take some pictures...






I was somewhat focusing on the judging criteria. I didn't really want to do it but the Manager was a judge for my talent show so I had no chance to turn it down.




Probably focusing less than I should...
This was about the time I realized that Evan was KEEPING NOTES!


Later on after many many drinks had been consumed I saw a friend of mine dancing with another dude so I figured it should be photographed and added to my blog!




Eagle Eye Candy...


They had a dunking booth in the friggin bar... so I took pictures of the people falling in the water
I love her facial expression...

As I have been reminded a few TOO MANY times by my brother, I haven't updated this blog in a while, so I am going to put up some backdated postings separated by date at the top. Sorry for the delay y'all but we have been doing this campaign at the station and it has required about 60 plus hours a week and I haven't had the time to do too many extracurricular things. So here it is...


I took this picture at a concert, thought it turned out pretty cool...

This one as well... Since I have been doing this job I have been taking more and more pictures at events and am thinking about branching off and doing some more pictures professionally...


The guy on the left is the Program Director for US105 and the girl on the left is a friend of the station.



This was a butterfly that I saw on the back porch at work. Kinda cool cause it just came out of the cocoon... I'd never seen that before.

Sights To See

The more events that I go to the more amazing things that I see that I feel need to be displayed for all... I am a notorious mullet watcher, some people enjoy watching birds, or collecting stamps, I like to simply watch mullets, and luckily some of the events that I go to allow me to see wonderful mullets, and other funny things to see... so that is what this blog will be all about.
This was at Subway and it was a truly glorious mullet... with the wifebeater combination!

A mullet and a nascar shirt... amazing!

I think this should be issued when a baby is born... the child leash!


Has 150 GRAND for a monster truck so no money left over for Shout to clean his shirt... so sad...


Central Texas Has Talent

Well... I finally got to handle an event all on my own for the first time since I became Promotions Coordinator. Central Texas Has Talent is a Talent Show that we had at a local festival. It went off pretty well... No one got hurt, some really cool people participated and it didn't rain through our event.








Here is a picture of me being in charge...










This is all the Finalists. We had 25 register, and 12 made it to day 2.





This was a Christian Rapper called God-In-Todd... He was really good. 3rd Place






Cody Culp got 2nd place







Eric Landeros got 1st and was amazing. Great voice

However this was where it got interesting. I had a guy call me and tell me that he and his wife practice MARSHALL arts in their back yard and the would like to put on a demonstration for us as their talent. At that point I only had 3 entries, so I quickly agreed thinking that ANYONE on stage is better than no one... Boy... Sometimes decisions like that pay off in a BIG WAY and boy howdy... This talent of theirs was TRAGICALLY AWESOME!








Face paint, missing teeth, mohawks and swords... What more can a red-blooded Texan ask for!!!

FlyLeaf Meet and Greet

We had a concert that was at an event that I had the 'pleasure' of being on the planning committee for, so I lined up a meet and greet with the headlining band at our station.

This is the PD for the Eagle and me with the band Flyleaf.... The sign isn't crooked, I think the lady taking the picture had one leg shorter than the other...

Kinda cool... this is the actual van that the band Flyleaf toured in until they signed a MAJOR record contract. They drove to New York and slept in the van for three days while they waited for a chance to play for the President of Octone Records, once he heard them he signed them to a contract and their next CD went PLATINUM!


Flyleaf in front of the Limo that we picked them up in...

14 passenger Cadillac Escalade Limo... First class all the way...
Overall it was a pretty good experience for the FIRST EVER meet and greet that we had at the station.

ANOTHER Monster Truck Show

Last Saturday I was asked to go and take some pictures at the Monster Truck show in Killeen so I decided to make the best of it. Let me tell you something, I really enjoy going to these events because as I get older I have TOTALLY become a people watcher! I like to look at all different types of people, but my FAVORITES have got to be the less refined people in my area.

I saw this girl dangling as her mother stretched to reach over a fence to take a picture of a non-moving Monster Truck.



This is a picture of Durty Dingus McGee putting Rod Stewart (the chicken) on Evan's head. Great picture!



Evan found two pieces of strawberry candy on the ground and was REALLY excited about it.




There are no words to describe the noises and faces that were made when Rod Stewart got to sit on Julia's head. I just hope at some point her nightmares go away.





After some getting used to it we got a picture of her and Durty smiling...






The GREATEST SIGHT OF THE DAY... Its not often you get to see the mullet twins... It was amazing.







Mini-Mullet








Mini-Mullet, with a striking resembelance of my brother in his younger days!





Now even though I work for a radio station there are times that it all pays off... Truly a fun day...
