Hi, I'm Alan and I am pleased to welcome you to Big D Country. I am legally blind and have been in broadcasting since 1979. I am married to Marianne and we live on my parents' farm just outside of Tallahassee. Bear, a long-haired Chihuahua,is on hand for almost everything, including my radio shows. Lilly, a Shih-Tzu, and Rico, another long-haired Chihuahua are both rescue dogs from the local animal shelter and are the newest additions to our family.
I have been a part of the Live365.com family of broadcasters since 2001.
For almost my entire life, I wanted to own a broadcast station, and I lost a lot of time and money trying to pursue that dream. It never happened. This may be as close as it gets.
I am now working hard to take the station to the next level - "local" Internet radio. By that I mean a portion of every broadcast day is done live, with information specifically targeting Tallahassee, North Florida, and South Georgia. We are a charting station to the Concentus Music Group and Radiowave Monitor. This helps me to see locally which songs are popular, and which ones need to take a break from the active list.
There is just no other genre of music that I personally enjoy as much as I do country music. My desire is to to create the "ultimate" country station.
What makes Big D Country different? We have a vast classic country library (with a few gaps still left to fill in) and I program the classic country along with today's top country hits. I want to be more than a Top 40 country station, and yet, not stuck in a time warp with only the older stuff.
I hope you enjoy the sound of Big D Country! Drop me a line and let me know you're listening. Got a music request? If we have it, I'll add it. If I don't, I'll search around and find a copy of it.
Thanks for spending some time in the country - with WJJD - Big D Country.
