ATX....doesn't quite sound right, but we'll make it work
So I’ve been keeping this under wraps for a few weeks, but I got a job in Austin, Texas. I’m getting back in the radio business. I’m gonna be working for a station that’s pretty similar to 99X. I’ll be holding down the 10am – 2pm shift and will get to do a noon show called the Flashback lunch (kinda like the Retroplex was on 99X). All this stuff has happened really fast and I didn’t want to jinx it by telling too many folks.
I’m gonna be really bummed about moving from Atlanta, since I was born and raised in this great city. I have so many great friends and family members here that making the decision to leave was incredibly difficult, but after working at WUOG for two and a half years and 99X for almost five, I knew this was the right decision.
I wasn’t gonna move to Myrtle Beach or Cleveland to get back in to radio, but Austin is such a cool city, that to pass up an opportunity like this would be foolish. I’m gonna miss everyone like crazy, but let’s just think of this as the Mez Eclipse empire expanding. Atlanta, Boston, Los Angeles, San Francisco and now Austin. Takin over the world bitches!!!
So with all that being said, I wanna see you guys come out on Saturday, July 26th to Johnny’s on North Highland. I’ve been DJing there for months and figured I might as well have my last night there be a chance for everyone to get together and rage. I’ll have all my DJ equipment set up, so bring your Ipod’s and we’ll kick out the jams.
Love you guys and am gonna miss everyone…ATL 4 LYFE (in my best Scott Hall dialect)
SF/JSF SXSW ’09….let’s do this!!!
