This guy is a twerp. Possibly a pissant too. At the very least he could be a moron.
just saying.

re: 'who needs gordon lightfoot?'...they do, cos that version was not good at all...although i do like the bodeans

if the guy banned every artist that he spontaneously asked for an interview, he'd have no records left to play

if he wants to hear what GL think about the Wreck then just google and read one of a zillion quotes GL has made over the years about the topic and read them aloud to his listeners

Silly stuff.

Of course ig he'd had Lightfoot for an interview it would probably would have been a freebie. By having the Bodeans sing the song he generates a royalty of Lightfoot. Maybe I should figure out a way onto this guy's bad guy list.

I see someone did respond with the question that if the song hadn't existed who would be talking about he Fitzgerald and her crew these 34 years later? Could someone (not one of you folks that live right on the Lakes...) name me one other ship that went down with its crew in the Great Lakes? There are hundreds to pick from but who would know that?

I can see the satire and the attention (albeit negative) this has generated. He still sucks big time though and this schtick is hardly worthy of a Marconi.

Another pissant lol ! Id say he's all three that you mention here.

In the meantime this was posted on Corfid before but heck Im a big Seinfeld fan.

Radio boy has posted this:
" it is time to reconcile. Hopefully by next November. I promise to do my part by lifting the ban. I think I lost sight of what a tragedy this really was."

[redhead]

He also lost sight of the fact that Gord set up a scholarship fund for families of the victims, as my friend Glenn so eloquently pointed out in his post on this "loose cannon's" website.

[charlene]

[brink-]

[johnfowles]

If anybody missed that inaccurate inappropriate and intemperate diatribe
before it was deleted and would like to read it in full with all the comments then at this moment if you copy this address:-
http://www.620wtmj.com/shows/johnjagler/69640662.html
as shown in the first posting into a google search box the article link will turn up. But clicking it now gives a not found message but there is also a cached link showing the article as it was on November 12th
Then simply click the cached link to read the article which was entitled

"Manamana and my deep personal dislike for Gordon Lightfoot
By John Jagler" hrrmph!!!
But hurry the cached copy will no doubt be replaced momentarily
I have saved the text if you miss it so PM if you want it

Squelched that bozo yahoo garBAGE right off the airwaves and the internet. Good going listeners and fans!

Char, I most heartily agree with you on that. And for what it's worth, the guy is, as I see it, a few more things that are unprintable as well. What sort of a rock does that slimy little salamander live under anyway?
