Guaranteed!!! On a trampoline, no less.
Don "Action" Jackson
I've been playing the hits on radio since 1981, starting on Cape Cod, and in Boston, Massachusetts where I grew up. (when The Sox and Patriots both broke everyone's hearts. Funny how things change.)
After 3 years of Las Vegas culture-shock in the late 80's and early 90's I was looking for work and found myself in Cleveland in 1991 through some mutual radio friends and met Britney Spears back when she wasn't making people gag.
And now, I'm here and get to play some of the best music ever recorded and have a blast with you all night long. I'm lovin' every minute of it and my life couldn't be any better or more complete.
Let's make it a regular thing to have some late night radio fun. E-mail me above and and let me know where you are, and where you listen overnight. Catch you soon between the tunes.

Tornado Timelapse
To get a real sense of what the people of Moore, Oklahoma went through at the time for 45 horrifying minutes, watch this time-lapse video of the Tornado there that lasts about a minute and a half. If only the recovery that is now ahead only took that long.

R.I.P. Ray Manzarek (Doors)
I had the pleasure of meeting this thoughtful, well spoken, amazing member of the Doors, Ray Manzarek about 6 or 7 years ago. I interviewed him and Robby Krieger, thoroughly enjoyed every minute, and grew to admire Ray even more.
I'm very sad that he's gone now at age 74 after fighting cancer the last year or so.
Here's a great example of Ray's genius as he gives a brief history of how The Doors, and the song "Light My Fire" came together. While doing that, you'll hear how great a keyboard player he is. (Despite the fact that he says that he wasn't a great musician at the beginning.)
