Spin CASA 106.7

Here's a little something about me. You already know my name is Spin. I won't tell you my real name so don't ask! LOL. I have been in radio for a little bit over 10 years and of all places to start I began as RANDY ROMAN'S intern back in the KICK FM days. As a kid I always liked music and really started to get into when I was in my teens at my cousin's record store. That was where I touched my first set of turntables. I never looked back. There are a lot of details to my story and the road has been a long and hard one; my other half (my wife) is working on writing my entire story from the very beginning (I can admit, women are better at the details than the men and I don't remember half of it anyway, lol) and it will be on her page (blog, will send out bulletin when done) and I will also post it here when it is done. I will tell you in a nutshell that it was my lucky day when I first played on KNON and everything after that is history. The one piece of advice I can give you is to not EVER burn a bridge. It doesn't matter how much that person pisses you off or what you "heard" they said about you, you never know what position that person will one day hold; and you may find yourself face to face with the very person you talked $hit about. I can also tell you that it took me over 10 years to get my own show, and it wasn't easy but just went it starts to get really tough is when its about to happen.Fellas, I know your significant other may hold you back on being a DJ or being in radio and all I can say (and I mean no offense) is don't ever let her hold you back either. I'm not saying to disrespect how she feels; listen to how she feels and try to compromise with her. In the end I can tell you that it makes a huge difference when you have someone that supports you even though she doesn't like it. Ladies, if your man wants to be a DJ or in radio, if you aren't strong in the sense of dealing with the late nights, the hours of practicing, the going out to network, the girls that will come your man's way, then you might want to back out. Don't try to make him change who he is or wants to be; all that will do is make him resentful. Try to support him even if you don't like it and if you can't then do what you gotta do. I can tell you without 100% doubt in my mind that my wife never liked what I did and still doesn't at times BUT she ALWAYS encouraged me and stood behind me even when she didn't want to and that made a world of difference to me. As you can see I now have my own show and she is very much a huge part of why I got here to begin with.If you see me at a club, introduce yourself, I am an easy going, laidback, genuinely nice person. I don't think that just because I am an on-air personality and I have experience under my belt that I'm too good to talk to anyone. Don't give up on your dream if being in radio/DJ is what you want to do! It can and will happen! Tune in to me on CASA 106.7 from 10a-2p and check me out if you can!Peace,Spin
