A Teee Veee kinda weekend….
Here’s hoping that you managed to score a snow day on Friday….I wish you could see how excited everyone at 680 news gets when the weather forecast is nasty. It’s pretty amusing…it’s their bread and butter though. I guess you could liken it to us announcing that Led Zeppelin were planning to come to Toronto….if that were the case:)
Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers will be here June 3rd (imagine how nice the weather will be by then…). Steve Winwood is the opening act. That’s more of a double bill, in my opinion. We have a presale on the site here for tickets until Sunday night at 10pm. I doubt that there will be tix available by Sunday night, though. Good luck if you’re after tickets!!
The Jack Nation Countdown is set to go…..the code from the countdown is ‘compare’. It’s worth 1000 points.
Soooo, later today (it’s Saturday morning)….the Jack Nation Countdown is going to run on City tv. It’s on at 1pm….and I’m a little nervous about it. Anytime I’ve done television, I’ve always been the guest…..being the guest is the easy part, unless you’re OJ. I did though, get to work with a bunch of really awesome pros. They’ve likely made the show look good…at any rate, I’m going out…not going to watch it. It’s pvr’d. I may watch it later. After 6 rum and coke;)
I’m going to a Big Brothers/Big Sisters Bowling fundraiser this aft. It’s a media event, so folks from all across the city will be there. 680 News and The Fan 590 have a team….I’m going as a cheerleader…..our Jack peeps aren’t taking part in this one…I guess I better ‘get my ass in gear’ as The Dad would say.
Have a great Superbowl weekend.
Til Monday…..

Good morning Sam,
I just wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed the City TV version
of the Jack Nation Countdown. You do a great job as the hostess.
I enjoy the format mix of videos and interviews. I am glad it’s not videos only.
Cheers,
Bill
