YOU NEVER KNOW WHO'S GOING TO STOP BY THE HIPPO...

2010-09-20T13:27:00.000-07:00

Troy Lukketta, drummer for Tesla, was doing a benefit show at the Golden State Theater Sept. 17th and decided to stop by...Good Times...and more to come...will keep you informed!!!!

Also Local Musician Kaye Bohler stopped by Sept. 22nd to record my Television show on Local Access Channel 24.

MUSICIANS...SHOP LOCAL!!!!

Just recently, as an early birthday gift, my girlfriend bought me a Roland TD-20sx and at first we were either going to shop on-line or at the big retail music store and then I remembered having a discussion with John, at Music Unlimited on Alvarado St. Downtown Monterey, about how Music Unlimited could meet or beat prices of which I mentioned earlier!!! Well I've become a firm believer in shopping local so....

I called Music Unlimited musicunlimited-monterey.com/default.htm
and I'm very glad that I did!!! I got a better deal than I could have by shopping online or at the big stores.

So my Friends...I suggest to you that if you are a musician...check out your local music store first and if you are just shopping for any other item check and see if they can/will beat any of the competitors prices...then Shop Local...keep our economy moving forward...we all need to take care of each other and by shopping local we can at least stimulate our local economy!

Thanks Music Unlimited...YOU ROCK!!!!!

2009-03-04T21:14:00.000-08:00

Hello there, I'm glad that you decided to read what I have to say...or should I say "write"...anyhow, let's talk about your requests...if you are on this website then you are already halfway home...

let's start with your "Morning Music Coffee Break" at around 10:30a.m. This is simply A song (one) that you would like to hear for no other reason than "Just Because"...so, what do you do...click on my name on the home page or just click in the request section...but it would be best if you clicked on me and then send me an Instant Message (IM) and fill in your email and name and leave your message...tell me, in the message, who you are...where you are and work(if you want)...and what you want to hear...

be it a coffee break or Work Force Doubleshots at lunch from 12 till 1pm Monday-Friday brought to you by M&S Building Supply at 2456 Del Monte Blvd. in Monterey(I wanted to give M&S Kudos for believing in The Hippo and their continued support of local Rock and Roll)...either way let me know the artist and songs if you know what you want to hear and if I have the song(s) I will play them...or at least try...

now honestly I recomend that you send me an email to my radio email which is jmichael@radiomontereybay.com. or you can friend me on facebook which is www.facebook.com/john-michael and I always check my mail daily and mostly all day...Understand that I want to play what you want to hear...but I need to hear it from you first!!!! I am, and will always be, here for you...

maybe you don't have a song request but you do have an opinion about my show and/or the Hippo...then I want to hear what you have on your mind...what makes The Hippo The Station that you want to hear is up to you...both Kenny Allen and myself strive to make The Hippo...YOUR CLASSIC ROCK RADIO STATION...Talk to us...we want to hear what you think and we do read to your comments...I look forward to hearing from you and I will make it my priority to ROCK YOU LIKE NO OTHER HAS, OR EVER WILL...The Hippo Rocks because of You!!!!
