The HoDaddy really came out swinging today - tanned, rested and ready from his vacay in Key West. We danced the Groovy Samba with Nicola Conte, rode the Waves of Steel with The Riptide Rats, sampled 365 Flavors with The California Honeydrops, test drove a Brand New Cadillac with The Clash, and found Paradise with The Shangri-La’s. All in a days work for your Tone Chaperone. Back at ya next Monday - have an amazing week, friends! 🎙️❤️🐒☀️📻🏴‍☠️😎 WSLR.org

Thanks to my good friend Marco for providing us with some bonus air time today. Since we just returned from Key West, the HoDad opted for an Island Vibes playlist. If you missed it, you can still listen via archive.WSLR.org - we recommend you do that. Just look for the show titled “Music of the World” and be ready to be transported. 🍔🎙️❤️🎶🐒😎🏴‍☠️📻☀️ WSLR.org

This just in: The HoDad will be hosting two shows tomorrow (Monday) on WSLR. Your Tone Chaperone just returned from the Florida Keys and is still feeling that laid back vibe. The music you’ll hear between 11 am and 1 pm will most certainly reflect that. Then, after a brief lunch break, we’ll return from 2-4 pm with another fresh baked Longboat Luau. Talk about MONDAY FUNDAY!!! WSLR.org ❤️🏴‍☠️📻😎☀️🎶🐒🎙️

We did battle with some studio demons today, but we eventually got everything whipped into shape. The HoDad and Cappy learned a Design for Life from Manic Street Preachers, were Hushed by Billy Joe Royal, did the Moon Hop with Derrick Morgan, got the feelin with James Brown, went night clubbing with The Specials, and even rumbled with Jack Nitzsche. All in a days work for your Tone Chaperone. We’re off to Key West for a few days, but back at ya next Monday. Stay loose, crew! 🐒🎶☀️🏴‍☠️🎙️😎📻❤️💥 WSLR.org

Program Alert 🚨 - The HoDad will be subbing for Neil on next Tuesday’s MELODY MATRIX. After some thought, we’ve decided to focus the entire two hours on some of our favorite session musicians. These studio legends rarely get the credit they deserve - but they will on this show. Hal Blaine, Floyd Cramer, Carol Kaye, Bob Moore, Tommy Tedesco, Bud Shank, Plas Johnson and many more will take center stage. The fun begins at 7 am only on Sarasota’s Epicenter of Cool … 96.5 FM WSLR.org 📻🏴‍☠️🎶🔥🎙️☀️🐒😎❤️
