Awesome start

Evening Billy & listeners! Am sitting in the cultural metropolis of Naas, diligently fulfilling the stereotype - having a Guinness!

Feckin' good start to the show!
  Fri. 3/16/12 7:07pm Mark T in VT:

Thanks Billy Jam. I am not the one to tout being "Irish" especially on the 17th like so many Americans do. But my mom's B-day is on the same day (tomorrow) and her grandfather came from Ireland to Canada then to VT. Kellett. My mom would always color everything she could including milk green with food coloring on the day. Sometimes even the toilette bowl would be green.
  Fri. 3/16/12 7:13pm Skirkie:

Fact: The first hip-hop cd I owned was Billy's Put the Needle on the Irish Hip Hop Record from 2009.
  Fri. 3/16/12 7:17pm Bad Ronald:

May the road rise up to meet you Billy Jam. I'm boiling briskets in beer for tomorrow and Cypress Hill "Hits from the Bong" comes to mind for 420 if it's not too pedestrian. Peace.

Yep MK! Should be fun

It's surreal to be in Ireland listening to a NJ station, what - 3000 miles away - and hearing artists from my own backyard for the first time

Thanks Billy
