How The West Was Won - By Us!

Day two of “Scott and Steve’s Great Tour of the West”.

Our buddy Terry Van Veen from 96.3 SHINE-FM in Grande Prairie chaffeured us around town all day as we enjoyed the wonderful sulphur-free, wild-fire-free air! Haha!

After a quick stop in the hotel gym - and aren’t those hotel gyms well maintained? Ahem - Terry took us to ROCK 97 to visit with Kevin Decker. The station with the “best rock and killer classics” was awesome! It’s a great facility and I think we made a new radio friend with KevinSHINE-FM “is” Christian radio in Alberta - with stations in Calgary, Edmonton and Red Deer. The GP operation has been on-air for three years. It’s well-designed and well-equipped.

After departing the Swan City (do they really call it that?) we took the 59-minute flight to Edmonton where we were greeted by Wakeup Starlight’s Caleb Cummings and Chris Noble.

LIFE 100.3 played the song “One Step Away”and the boys loaded us up with copies of their CD “The Breakdown”. Listen to LIFE for their new single "This Place Is Empty". Their cool guys and they really know a lot about the music business! Very refreshing!
(Me, Chris, Caleb and Steve.)


I’m not sure how rock stars manage a schedule like this - performing and flying from town to town everyday, sleeping in a different hotel every night. I’m tellin’ ya - it’s really exhausting!

Tomorrow, we conquer Edmonton radio with a stop at SHINE-FM.
