"WARNING; If you've ever turned on a radio and called a DJ...this novel MIGHT be about YOU!Thus begins, "DJ DIARIES; RADIO'S REMARKABLE LISTENERS." The wild, wacky and sometimes downright weird stories DJ's tell about their listeners!For the first time Country Music DJ and Radio Hall of Fame member, DAVE DONAHUE exposes the microphone memoirs of hundreds of disc jockeys as their antics come alive in this tell-all novel. Things like...what happens when listener's crossover the line of...'from just listening' to becoming entangled with a disc jockey AND vice-versa?DJ DIARIES reveals stories about behind-the-scenes listener conversations from humorous questions they have about the weather, to the wacky contest they respond too. There's the gritty reality of DJ's dealing with PO'd listeners, the good and bad of radio request and the odd ball 'love-to- hate' attitudes listeners and DJ's have when listening to commercials.'"DJ DIARIES plunges into the dark side of DJ's and listener encounters when they turn-on more than the radio. It's about sexual, adulterous encounters; even perverted tryst disc jockeys have become involved in when they break the most cardinal of radio's rule--never get involved with a listener! Explore the "Play Misty for Me" effect when listeners and DJ involvements have caused some disc jockeys to fear for their very lives. What some jocks have said on the air has led to murder; even contests on the radio that listeners played have ended in death!In the fifties the DJ was a star, but today...takeovers by large corporations have drastically changed things. Thousands of Disc Jockeys lost their jobs as satellite and computer automation allows radio to use one DJ to do the announcing on a thousand or more radio stations simultaneously. Today's social networking is also consuming people's lives and personality disc jockeys are rapidly becoming dinosaurs. Still, as long as there is a mouth and microphone near it...there will always be a DJ!
