declaration

hi there.

my name is garret. but most of my friends call me either capone or cap1.

i like music. a lot. "they" pay me to pick and play it. that fancy job title is "music director/assistant program director", but whatever.

i also like to talk. "they" pay me to do it from 2-6pm m-f, too. that not-so-fancy job title is "afternoons", but whatever.

before "they" hired me, i ran a station in ny. that fancy job title was "program director", but whatever.

my station in ny won. a lot.

"they" are finest city broadcasting/91x. and contrary to what the uninformed might suggest, "we" are just about as independent as it gets.

when i want to do something, i walk next door to my boss' office. i get an answer immediately. usually the answer is yes, and even when it's not, the reason is always a good one.

speaking of the uninformed, very few people actually have real access (read: proprietary) to the tools that measure a radio stations' success (read: ratings).

well, i do. and trust me - if this station was going to fail, i wouldn't be here. period.

so for all those people who think they understand how things are/should be for "us":

fuck your music superiority complex.

and your hipster elitist attitude.

and your thin-slicing.

other than that, hugs all around.
