Reasoning with Madness
"This is a barbaric yawp, and it will be sounded over the roofs of the world."
-Walt Whitman
10/23/2015 0 Comments Words of InspirationGot a message from a diehard listener of KFLY a couple days ago, and I've re-read it a few times now. Keeps my head in the game. And hopefully he won't mind me sharing this, because it meant the fucking world to me. And some of you may appreciate it too....
Now that the dust has settled I just wanted to thank you for everything you did while on the airwaves. Still every morning I think of my routine and still get disappointed that the standard ass show is no longer. It's a feeling one feels when a family dog is put down. Everyday you think of all the good times you had with your k-9 companion and how you want to go play with it but can't. Please excuse my grammer and sentence structure I know your a stickler for proper punctuation. Anyhow it sucks, it fucking sucks that some ass gape would pull the plug on such talent as your self and the rest of the crew. Your dont give a shit attitude always made me laugh when I was down. You always found a way to put some primus on at just the right time to make my day better. January 2nd 2013 you were giving away Vince Neil's book. I was caller 9 "is this Andy....?" You would always say. You asked what was up or new or how things have been. It was cool you kept track of your throbbits. I don't remember what you said to me when I told you I was headed to detox and hanging up my whisky hat. It didn't matter what you said it had confidence behind it and that gave me reassurance for my questionable decision at the time. I almost didn't get out of the car when I found out I couldn't listen to a radio while in rehab. No radio and no whisky meant for some fucked times. I used both to help me through my troubles. When it was over I still had my radio to keep me focused on the long term agenda. One day I'll never forget is when you were filling in for Marcus and were at master controls with Drew from 2-6. Somehow knudtson was talking to your bass player about how I got fired for listening to the donkey show at work and it got back to the station. "He doesn't even wear a shirt just pants and carries around an axe" was how you described me when you setup the story. It was great. When you guys invited me down after our conversation about getting terminated I was stoked. Always a top 5 bucket list item was to see the other side of the studio. I still have the caps from the bud lights you guys gave me while we were there. That was the highlight of my year. I always could relate to something you had said on a similar subject during your rants between songs. You deserve the best for your future endeavors. You show great dedication to your work and are great at what you do. The ideal job would be hosting the same show but show would be all requests like the noon hour was. Let's be honest the same 3 days Grace song gets old when you hear it 7 times in 6 hrs. Long story short I hope you land your dream job and it involves a radio. When you went to rock on the range it was awesome to have an insider's view on all the happenings. You painted a very colorful picture with your all your updates. Lets hope that happens in the future for you. And lastly I sure as hell hope that evil empire framed picture is hanging somewhere in your house and not in suite 350. I'm a firm believer in what goes around comes around, so whatever diclicker is responsible for this situation I hope they get it good real good. I really appreciate what you did for us throbbits and myself on a personal level. Hell I'm using the phone you gave me for having the craziest ex bitch in town to write this. That T-Mobile worst breakup story landed me this device. I spent an evening in the pit at a primus show on light duty with a bulged and herniated disk in my neck because of you. I got to take my daughter to the fire cracker bull ride which she loved. I got a book I still need to finish one of these years when I get a spare minute. The list goes on and on. Thank you again for all you've done. GDYSOB !!! -Throbbit Tresspass
