In March, 1963, I was working at my first country station, KLLL, in my hometown of Lubbock, TX. The tragic news of Patsy Cline's death in a plane crash near Dyersburg, TN., came as such a shock. She, at the time, was country music's biggest female star. Also, passing away were country singers Hawkshaw Hawkins and Cowboy Copas. Now, we've learned from Taste of Country that Patsy is the subject of a

Masculinity and scotch. They go together. Of course, for a long while, scotch was thought to be enjoyed by only old dudes. Well, according to the guys at guyspeed.com, "It’s not just for dudes anymore. Actually, it is but the very notion of dudeness as we know it is changing and evolving", as the 2012 edition of Ask Men's Great Survey, has found. GuySpeed goes on to say:

Today, July 26, 2012, I recall a day 44 years ago when I was at KCKN in Kansas City and received a call from former KCKN deejay Early Williams, who was working in Nashville for Shelby Singleton at Plantation Records. Early told me he had a acetate (a record-looking, round object on which test pressings were issued) to send me of a new singer and a song written by Tom T. Hall, who had had some succ

One of our Townsquare engineers, Ben Davis, had this notion to video an interview with me and test his editing skills. He brought a list of questions, set up the camera and away we went. I think Ben did a very good job. I wouldn't normally put something like this up, but I ran it by some family and friends and it got their approval...

After reading this charming story from our friends at tasteofcountry.com, I thought I wonder who'd play Chad or me in a  movie. They quoted Carrie as saying, in a recent interview with KO Video, Underwood said that if she could choose one actress to play her role in a biopic, it would be Reese Witherspoon.

Attention Waylon Jennings fans from around the world! Today Waylon would have been 75 years old. But, like many, he died too soon in 2002. If you are a true fan and want to know about his early years, then visit Sky Corbin's blog at this link. Sky was owner-manager and deejay at KLLL, Lubbock, TX. where Waylon worked in radio. Click on that link and it'll take to you Sky's remembrances of that spe

Yes, I had a good time with WBKR friend and Waking Crew member Bruce Pierce yesterday morning. Bruce, our morning computer geek, also knows a thing or two about guns. And, I am in the market for a new firearm, so Bruce invited me to join him at Whittaker's in West Louisville. As Bruce says, " I gotta tell you, they got a lot of guns".

When she was Kathie Lee Johnson, Moon so had a crush on Kathie Lee. Later when she co-hosted LIVE with Regis ourt of New York, I worked there then and watched her regularly. I still like her, although I know she grates on many a nerve -- but so do I --, therefore I feel so sorry for this gaffe. Chad and I talked about it this morning.

Earlier this week I bought a new Weber One-Touch gold grill, the cover and the chimney. I can see myself grilling all weekend long. Only problem?  I have to put it together, which could be the first failure of the weekend. Our friends at theFW.com have come with videos of the top ten Memorial Day  failures of all time.

Nothing like a brother. You're blessed if you have one. Like mine (pictured with me at the Country Radio Hall of Fame dinner in 2009) . Don Mullins, of Forney, TX. He came all the way to Nashville to be there for me. That's what brothers do. So, I was curious about brothers who have had success in country music.

Well, I shall live a LONG time because of the coffee I drink. According to a new study by the National Cancer Institute, coffee may actually prolong life. I drink a full pot -- 10- cups -- every morning starting at 3:45 whenI arrive at the station and concluding at 9:00. I take a break and return at 10 a.m. when I continue sipping coffee all day.

You know him as Moon Mullins--mild-mannered morning show co-host and Scotch afficianado. But when trouble arises and citizens are threatened, he dons the red cape, the blue tights, and the big blue "M" on his chest and becomes...Super Moon!
