After a nice little winter vacation we are back on the air (yep…we took a whole 4 days off!) with our amazing Top 10 Unsigned Artist Countdown that airs tonight at 8pm Central time!
Wonder what we did for our 4 days off?
Wonder what the Nooge got for Christmas?
Wonder how many babes Dave was able to take advantage of thanks to mistletoe?
Wonder what the heck Boomer does when he isn’t here?
You are going to have to tune in and find all of that out…Tonight on www.WestSideWill.com/Radio at 8pm Central time!
Hope everyone had a great holiday
The Nooge
The Week that will be:
NO NEW SHOWS MONDAY - THURSDAY
We come back strong Friday with a NEW TOP 10 UNSIGNED ARTIST COUNTDOWN!
As for next week the schedule will remain pretty much normal except there will be no new show Thursday, and the new music for the week show will be moved to Wednesday and will part of our New Year’s Eve Super Event! Stay tuned for that.
And then after that we go both guns blazing normal everyday schedule for a long while (probably till next November when we do this all over again with the Holidays!)
Enjoy the week, and I hope everyone has a great Holiday!

Let’s call this a Christmas Miracle…
Back in the day, when Boomer and I were just kids - say Junior High or High School, an a capella group came to our school to rock out. Needless to say they probably didn’t get the biggest response out of us, but they were pretty talented. I think the reason they came to our school was one of the guys in the group had a sister who was in our school, so they got this gig of who they knew (which is how it always is in music right?)
Anyway, it was a running joke between Boomer and I that sometimes during our mic check we would goof off and try to do some a capella stuff on the mics like these guys. It was funny, but we thought we were probably the only 2 people in the world (besides the groups friends and family) who were still referencing these guys. Boy were we wrong.
I woke up today, at 5am before the gym like always, and put on cnn.com trying to see what’s up in the world. There was a little story titled “You Tube Superstars Land Record Deal” which was later changed to talented you tube singers land deal…or something. Anyway this video/story was about the same group that we saw many moons ago in Junior high or early in High School.
The group’s name? Straight No Chaser, who is now signed to Atlantic Records. Now if any of you all YouTube it at all you know who these guys are, they are famous for a little holiday music medley (That is based around the 12 days of Christmas).
Why post this? Because, I think Boomer and I would like to some credit for keeping these guys memory alive with our awesome mic checks…and jokes about this group. Anywhooo, they are really talented, at least one of em has to be from our hometown of Naperville, and one of em’ is on the local ABC 7 news here in Chicago.
Enjoy the video…and Happy Holidays!
Yes people that is right, Dave the Intern is back on the bloggin’ circut!!
Alright that’s enough the two people clapping excitedly can stop now, thank you very much though for the effort. Anywho I’d thought I’d write about how excited I’m am about our dive into the reality game show pool.
As you may have heard on the best unsigned artist show ever, Nooge, Boomer and I have discussed starting our own Westsidewill version of a little show called The Mole. I personally have never seen the show but I know the jist of it. Basically there is one person out of like ten that is trying to sabotage everybody elses attempt to win different challenges. The people, however, have no idea who this “mole” is and try to figure it out. After every round the contestants are asked questions about the mole and they answer based on who they think it is. Score the lowest score and you’re gone. I love the idea of our own startegy based show, but a bit worried because my talents seem to be geared more towards palor games as stated numourous times on the Top Ten Friday show. However I think I would start behind the rest of the crew since Boomer already believes I’m a snake and would be gunning to take me out from the start. I’m so excited about this game that I’m already trying to think of challenges to use for the game, like Kick the Can or a good rousing game of Mario Kart. With the cast of characters we have lined up for this game it should be very entertaining at the very least. The best part about this is that, YOU, the beloved fans of Westsidewill Radio will have the chance to vote for who is the Serpent. So keep listening and check back to see when all the crazy Serpent shananagins begin. Game on Boomer!!
Keeping it proper,
Dave the Intern
enjoy Late Arrival
It’s been a bit since I’ve gotten my blog on, and I know that I can’t keep the public waiting that long, they’ll go crazy!!!
Anywhoo - What’s new with me? Listen to the show and find out (www.WestSideWill.com/ArtistShowcase) … or I can just tell you right here.
Let’s track some crazy news stories
-I’ve started a Pre-New Years resolution today, I’m going to workout at least 6 days a week, eat right, stop drinking diet soda, and try to stop drinking a ton. It’s one of those things where I feel like I kind of go over-board with all that junk, diet soda, junk food, boozin etc.
The good news is that I have my younger brother on board, the bad news? We have to workout every day at 5 am… neat.
That’s crazy right? Not as crazy as…
-Bear Grylls Injured in Antarctic!!!
Pshhhhhh…good, because he sucks compared to the Survivorman guy. He has to carry all of his camera equipment, and Bear Grylls just has to chill, let his buddies film him, then spend the night in a hotel.
-Famous Athletes Who Went To Jail
This is a kind of neat look at the crazy people who can become professional athletes - I’m pissed off that Lawrence Phillips didn’t make that list…
And what a great note to end the crazy news stories of the weekend on?
Oh yeah…I just want to say that I hope Florida gets a chance to run up the score on Oklahoma in the National title game, nothing pissed me off more this weekend than seeing Bob Stoops put 60 on a Missouri team (when 14 came in the last 10mins or so) when he was already up 40 or something.
Go Gators!

Today I’m going to write about some videos and songs to check out, and check them out quick because they are YouTube links, and I’m not 100% sure that the youtubers own the rights to the music!
1) Kardinal Offishall Ft. Keri Hilson “Numba 1″
I’m thinking they just misspelled “number”, typos happen ALL the time! In fact we have a lot of pretty funny typos that show up submission forms. Here is a hint, if you try writing words in a “cool” way if you don’t pull out a dictionary you may be shocked at what your words actually turn in in. And we’ll leave it at that.
And…I’d do Keri Hilson…and about 99% of the chicks in this video
2) Joe Buddens Feat. The Game “The Future”
A really cool song by underrated Joe Buddens. Sure Joe has had beef with just about every rapper out there (including The Game), and he has a winning record in those beef’s, he isn’t undefeated, but he tries hard. He’s like the Stevie Forbes (boxing reference) of the rap world. You gotta beat Buddens before you can show up in the top 10. Listen to this song while you can…because I’m thinking the poster of this video may not have the rights to post the track…I don’t know this…but…
3) Jadakiss feat. Ne-Yo “By My Side”
I hate Ne-Yo…I’m a huge Jadakiss fan. He’s top 5 dead or alive, it’s a Universal music track so I can’t find anyone who has this video up to embed (Universal has their videos on lock on YouTube…nice to see they can at least control the releases a little bit). You can check the video:
Jadakiss “By My Side”
4) Tami Chynn “Frozen”
I don’t like this song too much, I’m not a huge Tami Chynn or Akon fan, but I just thought I would post it because I think this video deserves the award for most delayed video of all time. I believe it was filmed roughly 8 months ago, and they just released it this week. In fact this video is just weird, so I guess that was a swing and a miss for Gil Green.
And I think you’ll notice that this song sounds a little bit like a Lady Gaga Track minus some of the electro stuff…that’s because Red One seems to make his female singers make tracks that are all the same.
Best line of the song? Akon “She said she’s gettin hot in this hair”…so Akon is gonna take her back to his place so she can take her hair off? I’m not sure I want any chick who has to take her hair off…
I’m thinking that photo is from before this video was filmed…so like 10 years ago.
Frozen ft. Akon - OFFICIAL VIDEO
5) Cobra Starship “Kiss My Sass”
I don’t mind Cobra Starship, my only thoughts on this video is that the lead singer can stand to go a size bigger on his pants…I guess if you gotta hit the high notes
That’s all I got, I figure they are some good songs you can check out, and some song that deserves some respect because the video has been on ice for close to a year. Again, I don’t always recommend the tracks I write about, I just like to point them out so we all know they are out there.
If you have any let me know,
The Nooge
Why no Monday show?
Well it’s simple really, us DJ’s had to work the day before Thanksgiving, Thanksgiving, and the day after. So we got Monday off. We are going to take that time to fix some little bugs that have been popping up at times as well.
Not to worry though, we’ll be back Tuesday with great new shows until the end of the year!
Check it out everyone! We do have a great Unsigned Artist Showcase Show today!
We showcase all the great music we got for the week, yes even on Turkey Day! I hope everyone is enjoying their day - and why not spread the awesomeness of WestSideWill Radio with your family?
Handshakes and High Fives,
The Nooge
What a great week - am I right people?
First you have Wednesday, the day before Thanksgiving for our out of country visitors to the site, which is one of the biggest party nights of the year. Here is my problem with Wednesday, I said I’m going to stop drinking…so this is going to be a tough one. Drinking is for the birds.
Then Thursday! Thanksgiving day! Who doesn’t love Thanksgiving day? In fact here at WestSideWill Radio I’m pretty sure we are even going to have a Thursday show. That isn’t set in stone yet, but we are leaning towards doing a Thrusday show. We will know more tomorrow and I’ll post a blog announcing the update. If we don’t do a Thursday show this week the new songs will carry over to next week and Boomer and I will host a HUGE show next week.
Black Friday comes up next. Does anyone get into that black Friday stuff? Personally I do not really do any sort of shopping for Christmas until just about Christmas Eve. So if I were to be shopping on Black Friday I’d be doing it for myself, and there are some super cool items out there for Black Friday. I just don’t know if I’d want to wait outside from right after Thanksgiving Dinner on for a cool product. It looks let Best Buy is going to let you do your “Black Friday” shopping online while supplies last starting Thursday. That’s a very smart move. (Make the money back on the shipping!) If you google “Black Friday Deals” you’ll be able to find just about everything that is going down that day. Although you’d have to be crazy to get out there and actually shop, but whatever floats your boat.
That’s all I got for our Thanksgiving Week announcements, stay tuned for more info on the Thursday Unsigned Artist Showcase!
