KFYI 20 year Birthday Bash

Here are my notes on the KFYI birthday bash in Phoenix AZ 2 June 2005. This was Thursday Night and I worked all day and night on Friday so I am late getting this up. It was fully taking notes during the show/party. I did not get back stage passes even though I am a Citizen Journalists.
Maybe I will have to file a complaint with KFYI. I should have been allowed to interview the crew and Sean Hannity and Matt Drudge.

So with out any more BS here are my notes.

KFYI ’s 20th Birthday Blowout

Guests: Sean Hannity, Matt Drudge, Tony Snow, Bill Handel
Phoenix Dodge Theater

Before the show:

  • Mix of people is pretty wide.
  • Row 1 Right side, Seat 7 & 8 is a 19 year old kids, they can not keep there hands off each other. Good looking couple.
  • Row 1 Left is a BIG guy talking about the $100 chairs and they are small folding chairs.
  • General Observations are:
  • Many people are so over weight that they are taking lots of room.
  • There are very few Minorities in this crowd
  • Conservative women are HOT while some are not.

Music playing is early 80’s (kinda like what was new when the station opened).

  • Boys of summer Don Henley

Really Fat woman walking down center isle carrying a tray of nasty food and pop having a hard time scooting into seats. sorry I just have a problem with this..

  • Ain’t that American - John Cougar

Group of Hot chicks sitting in row 1 - Shirt says “God Bless America”

Hot Chic with 2 beers…Not bringing one for me, darn.

.

  • 1999 - Prince (or the artist formally known as something)

Lots of couples
Being single here sucks.
but bringing a date would be expensive.

Mark Chords (sp?) the opening Comedian

Happy Birthday KFYI, you are almost old enough to have a drink.

“Not saying all Arabs are terrorists, Just all terrorists are Arabs.”

Mark Chords ( sp?)

People clap to TV when Rush come on and talked about KFYI (kinda weird)

Boo when McCain image came on Screen…not a lot of love in AZ for this RINO

Berry Young

20 years ago, John McCain was a republican.

Berry Introduced: Bruce Jacobson, Austin Hill, Joe Crummy,

Pie in the face for Andrew Babinski

Bill Handel
Go Pound Sand.

Kim Commando

  • Hottie, Why is she married to Berry Young?
  • She is now on 400 stations

Matt Drudge

  • Nice Hat Matt!
  • Matt is a control freak
  • Pretty funny
  • Not real a journalists
  • CNN down to 300 K viewers.
  • The left is celebrating Watergate this year.
  • Ted Turner - thinks he was responsible for winning the cold war.

Radio

  • Spin - Get reaction of audience
  • Major City News- Dumb down to the 5th grade, tell you tomorrow what happened yesterday.
  • Phoenix is 5th largest City in nation, Print news has a 4 day waiting period.

Matt Drudge: the 2008 election is very scary because there is no one to run against Hillary.

“Would you vote for John McCain over Hillary in 2008?”
that is the problem with the republican party right now.

Could Jeb run?

Sean Hannity:
“I am hear to beat up Libs!”
GWB has Moral Clarity
Howard Dean is Insane
Sean Hannity you are in the US illegally now…go straight to Jail.

Home Depot canceled commercials because of the rants about little house they want to enable day-workers to sit and wait for work.
Slamming Home Depot for enabling the employment of illegal aliens (maybe Terrorists?). Sean should go get some work there.

Republicans are wrong on Immigration!!!!!

Democraps are wrong on everything.

That woman Hillary…

That is the scary thing to think of.

Don’t mess with the bitch.

She will Bobbit you.

Condi! We need to get her in the race.

Please

Matt Drudge - Blame Sean Hannity for Hillary Clinton, he interviews her, Sean in NY could not stop her back in 2000. How are we going to stop the swell of stupid Hillary supporters now? It would not be an issue if Sean could have stopped her back then.
–Matt also talking about the morality of today’s world.

Kim Commando talks about regulating the internet.

The lawyer Bill Handel thinks we should put government control on the internet. and block the internet at our boarders. I think he says this because he just does not understand the what the internet is. Once again this is fine in theory, I want to protect the kids.

Kim Commando mentioned this site of chat room logs with very sick and demented people. http://www.perverted-justice.com/. The internet is not safe for Kids. I work with technology and there is no way to regulate the content unless you break the internet. Period. You would have to make it US only and have no links to the outside to be able to control it. I also and think that parents need to be held responsible for there kids. Even the bad parents need to be held responsible. You can not block the bad in trying to protect the kids. These guys are sick and need to go to jail for a long time but it is the parents responsibility watch there kids when they are using something that can be dangerous and bad for them.

Sean Hannity came back out and did part of his “Sean Hannity barnstorming freakshow of political pornography”.

News Flash: Alan Colmes might leave Hannity and Colmes. He is being considered for several positions like 60 minutes II and SeeBS Anchor position.

Sean brought up a Lib
She came to the show for her husbands birthday.
I’m not a stupid Liberal” Linda the Liberal

“That’s why I love Phoenix, even your liberals are normal”

Sean Hannity

“I love drunk republicans”

Sean Hannity when a group of guys kept screaming out during Sean’s talk.

After the show I tried to get into the VIP area, I don’t know why they didn’t think I was a VIP. But I did talk to Sean Hannity for a couple seconds. I asked him why he doesn’t write a bolg. He didn’t answer that at all. He did talk about Hugh Hewitt and Michelle Malkin . Some of these personalities are starting to miss the blogosphere bus. He was very nice and pretty cool for a pretty boy.

    Cool that you got to talk to Hannity. You should have mentioned your blog and the Wide Awakes to him.

    Thanks for this event rundown! I’m glad to see this. I actually post blog essays on Drudge-related topics (both complimentary and critical) and have extensively researched Matt Drudge for a book I’m working on. I’ll link to this this in my next posting…
