LISTEN TO "MONKEY BUSINESS" HOSTED BY "IRON" WILL MATSON AND FRANKIE CANILLAS ON WSJB 91.5 FM, SATURDAYS FROM 7:00 PM TO MIDNIGHT. WE ARE NOW IN OUR FOURTH SEASON AND RUNNING STRONG! LATEST UPDATES (MONKEY BUSINESS): -We will not be on the air on November 24th due to the Thanksgiving Weekend. We will be back on the air December 1st and December 8th to close out Season #4 with our last 2 episodes. -Due to having way too many things to do, I will be unable to update this website until further notice. I apologize for any trouble this causes. If you really want to know what is up and have that much concern, please e-mail me at: twilighthotel@jaydemail.com This means that this page and the playlist page will not be updated until I can get some things done and free up some time. Sorry again. But we are still doing the show and that is going great :) There will be a tiny update here and there, I may try to catch up, but otherwise I have got commitments that are dire and need my immediate attention. -The show on November 17th went great. Need I say more? -Ratt is coming to The Asylum which is located at 121 Center Street in Portland, Maine. Tickets will be $15 and can be obtained either the night of the show at the Asylum or at a local Bull Moose Music. If you are in the area, check them out!!!! The show takes place: Tuesday, November 27th and you can find out more about Ratt and their current status at: www.therattpack.com -Change of plans. The Artist of the Week for November 17th is now Ratt. Britny Fox has been rescheduled (sorry, guys). Ratt was the very first Artist of the Week in Episode 1 and we figured we may as well do them again. Don't worry, we will get to Britny Fox. We are also playing Ratt to promote a concert in the area. We won't be on the air to promote it November 24th so we had to schedule the heavy Ratt promotion for the 17th instead so we could try to get people to go to the show. BTW, this is Blotzer's and DeMartini's Ratt (with Jizzy Pearl singing) not Pearcy's lineup he is also touring with. -We are now at 270 requests for the history of the show, closing in on 300. -November 10th was a great way to celebrate our 40th episode of Monkey Business. Even though many people weren't familiar with Dangerous Toys, we gave them a large dose of the Toys and probably converted a few new fans as they were the Artist of the Week this week on the show. Will and Frankie were fabulous on the mic and there were a lot of great songs played. We had a call from a old loyal listener who we had not heard from in a long time, who is nicknamed "Captain Cool." "Cool" listened faithfully ever since the first half of Season 1 and called in virtually every week right up through the first part of Season #3 but we stopped hearing from him near the end of Season 3 and didn't hear anything from him until November 10th. It's great to have one of our favorite listeners back and congratulations on the newborn baby and the new house. And thanks Captain Cool (aka John) for supporting the show and listening. Without our listeners, we would be nothing, you are what keeps us coming back every week :) (awwwwwwww, LOL). Awesome show, lots of calls and some good times, if you ever get the chance to do radio, don't pass it up. A lot of dj's take this job for granted and don't know how lucky they are. Knowing that I am helping out bands by promoting them and that people wait all week to listen to us and call in makes me feel incredible, it makes me feel like I am making a difference and contribution. -There will be no show on November 24th, due to the Thanksgiving Weekend, we shall be with our family. Season 4 will be wrapping up on either December 8th or 15th, I am still trying to find the correct date. I think it is the 8th but I am not 100% sure yet. There will be a short layoff until Season 5 kicks in during mid-late January of 2002. -November 3rd wasn't a particularly good show, we were a bit off on the mic. However, the fans apparently didn't mind as the calls were coming in. We played an hour of great music from Firehouse, covering something from each album, not to mention all the hits. The show could have been better, at least DJ wise but, as usual, the music itself was top-notch. We even played some music and promoted a show for an artist named Jen Shankman, who was playing in the area. -We are working on possibly securing a phone interview with members of New Jersey's own, Atello. They've got a great melodic rock sound and we have done a web interview with them in the past (which I hope to get online again soon). Will has been chatting with the bass player, Ralph Heiss. Monkey Business has played tracks from their first cd, "The Big Payoff" many times in the past, great stuff. The band is working on their second cd and hopes to get a track or two out for us. Find out more about them online at the link below. If you like the stuff we play, you will not be disappointed. We plan on doing a listening party for the new cd when we get our hands on it. -October 27th was another fine show. We had a great hour of Kiss music, covering all the singers and different eras of that band's stellar career. The phones were ringing off the hook most of the night. Overall, a lot of fun, as usual. We are on a serious roll and things are only looking up. Will and Frankie played a lot of good songs, including some related to Halloween (which falls on Wednesday). -October 20th was a great episode of Monkey Business, there was a lot of stuff going on and a respectable amount of callers and visitors. At the last minute, we secured an interview with a band called Five O' Clock Shadow, who was playing in the area. The interview went well and we shall be adding Five O' Clock Shadow to our playlists during the week. Check out their website linked below. Also, we played an hour of great music in support of America, check out the playlists linked below to see those songs. We also got some new cd shelves and a new cd player in the studio, which is always a plus. -October 13th was the best episode in a long time for Monkey Business. The phones were ringing off the hook and the requests were coming like wildfire. We had a first time listener from Saco call in for some early, early Def Leppard and Quiet Riot, it was an incredible night. The Guns N' Roses All Request Hour was a big success and went off superbly. Will and Frankie are thrilled about how the night went, we can't wait til next week. We gained a lot of first time listeners in fact and hope they stick around for future weeks. -We had a GREAT episode on October 6th playing an hour of great music by Europe including some early stuff. We also played a lot of other great music and even went on a few minutes early. We had some good feedback from the listeners and played a good mix of stuff, including some newer acts from independent labels. After a one week hiatus, Frankie is back in the studio which is always good. Plus, there was some bugs in the equipment in the studio and Will managed to fix the dials on the board and also the mic that was not working. -Every week, as you know, we do an artist of the week feature and pick an artist and play one hour of their music from 9 to 10 PM on Monkey Business. Artists of the Week: -September 22nd: Stryper -September 29th: White Lion -October 6th: Europe -October 13th: Guns N' Roses All Request Hour -October 20th: Monkey Business Salutes America -October 27th: Kiss -November 3rd: Firehouse -November 10th: Dangerous Toys -November 17th: Ratt -November 24th: No show, taking the Thanksgiving Weekend off -December 1st: TBA -December 8th: TBA Contact us: Studio/Request line: (207)893-3100 AOL Instant Messenger: twilighthotel (Will's screen name) Narnia1417 (Frankie's screen name) twilighthotel@jaydemail.com (Reach us by e-mail) Disclaimer: The following sites provide us with the news we use on Monkey Business..... www.electricbasement.com (Electric Basement) we have them linked below www.metal-sludge.com www.knac.com www.hardradio.com www.metal-reviews.com www.mtledge.com www.melodicrock.com Thanks to these sites for keeping us informed, cheers!!!! |
