Happy New Year! I am really looking forward to crushing this night tonight and starting 2011. I will be busy, DJing at the Veneto Lounge till 1AM then traveling up the road to do an hour and half at the Zone NYE party at Sugar. I was reading Seth Godin the other day… I loved [...]

It was a slow day at the radio factory today so I took a long lunch to head downtown and get p to one of my favourite pastimes, record shopping. Victoria has a few great record stores and my faves are Talk’s Cheap (556 Pandora) and Ditch Records (635 Johnson… but moving to Fort). Today [...]
The Zone DJs Best of 2010 Playlist

Instead of jamming out a Modern Rock Countdown this weekend (it being Christmas and all) I thought it would be fun to play some selections from the Zone DJs “Best of 2010” lists. I hope it sounds like a pretty good couple hours of music to be enjoying your Christmas brunch too. Selections from the [...]

Did anyone grow up watching The Monkees on TV? I remember watching reruns all the time time as a kid, but I’d be hard pressed to give you an example of what of the shows were about. I am sure if I watched the Monkees now… it would be an unsettling adventure in Deja Vu. [...]
A Red or Blue One?

Today was a good day because it started with an ICEE. Sadly, Washington State, I have no need for you anymore, so we’re breaking up. ICEE is basically a slurpy that is super-duper foaming… I think the science behind it has something to do with carbonating a frozen drink? Growing up, I could never find [...]
Kind of a Drag

Picked up Coral’s cold and feel yucky today. Last night I was in a it of a mood and sick so I settled into my book. I drifted off to sleep around 12:30 midnight on the couch… which I do a lot but it always weirds me out. I came to around 3:30AM and shuffled [...]

I am having a minor obsession right now with a free Axis and Allies computer simulator I found. I am a super nerd but if you’re into it: Triple A. I like the game because it has a First World War variant. I have always, always wanted to play a Great War strategy game, and [...]

The Morning Zone’s Quest to fill the Chevy Cruze is spiraling out of control in the best of ways. An event that began as Dylan’s Mom wondering why the Zone doesn’t do MORE to help kids has escalated into a great event on Friday, December 17th. DW and Jason will be at the Mayfair Mall [...]
Do The Right Thing

I love our “perma-borrowed” Chevy Cruze from Dave Wheaton Chevrolet. I originally got my hands on it when Brett let me take it to Vancouver to see Vince Vaccaro. Then during the snow, I got scared and didn’t want to bike, so I kept it… and NOW we’re going to keep it over the holidays [...]
