Ronn Owen's Show KGO San Francisco Ca.


Get Flash to see this player.

Description
KGO is the number one rated talks show in the country. Ronn Owens is the number one rated talk show personality in the country. I was lucky enought to get on his very popular show as a phone in guest. This is about a competition to get on the actual show. There were so many callers that after a few minuets it crashed there system. He said there were 3400 votes. I received a vote, a couple got 3 votes and one I think got four. But the voting just started and again the system just couldn't hold up to the strain of so many voters. Ronn was actually thinking of canceling the show cause he felt it wouldn't be fair. But the show did go on, I didn't get on the show but I thought this might be of interest so here it is . I don't actually get on until the end of the .mp3 file. But I thought this might give you a flavor of Ronn's incredible professionalism and why he is the top rated talk show host in the country !

This was aired Friday August 8th 2008 at 9:00 am. I immediately heard that Ronn was having phone callers on the show when he mentioned it at about 9:00 am. that friday. I pulled over the side of the road and phoned in and was lucky enough to be the first caller. There were 14 callers that made on the show!

Thanks Roxy
I just want to send a message to musician's out there that there are more than one way to skin a cat (sorry for that expression) the conventional way of doing things has ended because of the internet.

Thanks so much Roxy and for being such a great contributor to MJ!

Hi Magna
I don't think of this as such a great feat, but just another tool or should I say access to help in getting people to hear you. I am by no means making much money at music. But it really I think is a unique way of introducing fingerstyle guitar music to the mass media. It is so tough because so many other styles seem to lay hold and taken media away from much of acoustic and classical styles.

I hear what
you're saying about more than one way to skin a cat. Too bad you didn't get a chance to post a message in the forums... they would have been overwhelmed with MJ votes!

Great point Lennon
And I probably should of done that. But what happened is the system crashed and it wouldn't of done much good anyway. Unless the mjers called in really quick before the system crashed. But it really did crash early.
Ronn was thinking of just abandoning the whole thing. But they deciding to just go with the view votes they had. I am glad I at least got one:)
