About me: I was born in Quincy, Mass. I was raised in Pembroke, Mass. Then we moved to Darien, CT for a couple of years and then (with much drama) we moved to Alexandria, VA in the fall 1968...yes right near DC, the heart of the roadblock of American life. This year, 2008 will make it 40 years in the DC area. I got into radio in the year 2000 and I've been doing my own radio show since 2002. I am (believe it or not) a conservative. By the way I'm a big Nationals fan. And my real name is Mike Fitzgerald. CLICK HERE TO GET A PRE-MADE MYSPACE LAYOUT
Love this song! and the new profile pic. (but I feel inclined to draw a goatee on that little boy). You always have the most interesting page. I check it often just to see what song you have playing.
Hey Fitz, glad you got the CD and hope you like it! Thanks for supporting Widow Maker with your airtime. It means a lot to indie bands like us who don't have a record company behind us to help get our music out there. We really appreciate it! We'd also love to get your honest reaction to the CD after you've had a chance to give it a listen. Thanks again!
PS: watch for Widow Maker in the June 2008 Bluegrass Now "Band To Watch" feature article by Dave Higgs!
Willie Price and Ray Nelson? hmmmm... enjoyed your show on WEBR today. I especially like this song that is playing now....Let It Move, Let it Rock! whooo hooo!
Thanks so much for adding my artist page. Glad to see things with you are going well. I also like your song that you have on your page. It goes well with your mood image--relaxed.
Jee, try to have Jan read the captia. It is a nightmare. You'd think by now, he'd understand. But, he doesn't get it. The simplest things perplex him. God bless him. I just have to accept him for who he is.
I see you are online right now. Because of that, I thought I'd give you a shout out. I thought I'd say Hey! Take care of yourself.
