 How has WAKY radio /all radio/ influenced us ?
« Thread Started on Nov 5, 2009, 12:20am »

WAKY radio was what I listened to as a child getting ready for school in the mornings, when I got home in the afternoon and at night when I was trying to sleep through the many fights my parents had. I am 43 and was recently at the GFS store. WAKY had a live remote! I got tickets to the Water Tower Bluegrass and Bourbon Fest...my husband and I had just spent 3 months of unwanted house guests, new grandchildren, married children loosing their homes and downsizing 43 years and two kids into a one bedroom apt. for now...going to that festival was VERY needed and we had a ball! Thanks Waky for being more than a radio station..by the way...I went into radio for years! Radio really does inspire. Bill Bailey...yeah...he was my radio boyfriend...now my son is naming his daughter...Bailey...hmmmm? You decide..ha ha.....love that man and WAKY...also..that grandbaby may have red hair when she is born in December...(I bet Bill is sweating now..he may be a "grandpaw" and did not know it...lol...just kidding...Bill was like a friend and WaKY music now...reminds me of my life and memories! Keep up the faith WaKy Staff!

I know I've said this many a time on here, but WAKY influenced my life in so many ways, from keeping me company when I was in poor health growing up, to sparking my interest in being involved in radio and, in short, being the soundtrack of my life right along with WKLO, Hi95 and WIEL in E'town. I know I speak for many people who grew up in and/or are still living in the Kentuckiana area when I say the Super79 really made a difference in my life and for that I'm forever grateful!
