Born and raised in New Jersey, I am proud to play Jersey's Favorite Hits on Saturday afternoon from 3 to 7 p.m., and Sunday night from 7 p.m. to midnight. Along with writing for NJ1015.com, I do a lot of "behind the scenes" work at the station. In my spare time, I listen to music (I have a large CD and vinyl record library). I walk, and I work out at the gym. I enjoy books with cool characters and clever plotlines (Stephen King, for example). And, I'm turning my dirtbike into an on-road motorcycle, so look out NJ Traffic North and South, here I come!

What New Jersey 101.5 song should be remade for summer 2019?
Here at New Jersey 101.5, we ROCK out to great songs from the 70's and 80's (and an occasional song from the 90's, too).
And while most of our favorites were "new" songs at that time, some of those faves were "re-makes." Earlier hits, brought ba…

I'm...human.
The facilities are fully stocked, I notice.
I've been absent-minded-ly looking at the...ummm...paper product (above).
I turn away, and then do a double take, as it hits me:

Craig Allen says: ‘Meet the J. Geils Band’
While the J. Geils Band formed in the 1960's, they didn't hit their "commercial" stride til the 1970's...and had their biggest success in the 1980's!
The band began as an acoustic blues trio, with John Geils on vocals and guitar, Danny Klein on bass, an…

English vs Modern English in NJ
You might say...that we have our own way of saying things here in New Jersey.
Having said that, let's play a game that I'm calling "English vs Modern English."
Ready?
English: "Oops...I really screwed that up."
Modern English: "My bad...
