PHILLY PRIDE: I'll be performing in my hometown of Philadelphia this Friday, May 14. To celebrate, here are a list of cool things I remember about growing up in Philly: - Lisa Thomas-Laury, Jim Gardner, Marc Howard, and the whole Channel 6 Action News team - F.C. Kerbeck - running up the Art Museum steps like Rocky - Doe Mountain is...the fastest way to hit the slopes! - The CBS/NBC, Channel 3-Channel 10 flip-flop - watching the rowers on the Schuylkill River alongside Kelly Drive - The Wing Bowl sponsored by 610-WIP. - cheesesteaks, soft pretzels, and Rita's water ice - seeing how fast you can get throught the heart at the Franklin Institute - KYW...newsradio...1060! - Dick Vermeil Blue Cross/Blue Shield commercials - "The Great Sports Debate" with Angelo Cataldi, Glen Macnow, Al Morganti, Jayson Stark, and occasionally Mike Missanelli - The transition from Eagle 106 to WDRE 103.9 to Y100 - "Rap Around" with Ukee Washington - the middle lane on the expressway where you can either get off onto 676 or stay on 76 - your choice! There are probably about three or four people who would have enjoyed that and I don't think any of them read this blog.
