Nicholas Picholas

Producer, board op, live events, general go-to guy (1989-1991)

Nicholas writes:

I remember working at 83 Kennedy Rd for a couple of years with Alan and Earl... Bob Noxious hired me to work as a producer, I put together the all-request nooner for Alan, worked as a board op for Maryellen's 102 Magazine, produced Friday Night High with Earl, board op'd for Earl and Bev on the weekend wake-up show and produced special projects for Reiner. did lots of club work, spinning vinyl, with Alan and Hal Harbour. I operated the live-to-air audio feed for one of the CASBYs, also did fill-ins on the overnights. I used to drive the land yacht! When I started, Joanne was at reception, when I left it was Karen.

I was there for the Barenaked Ladies rise to fame. The dayglow hat giveway at the Sting concert. The Farm, Big Audio Dynamite, the day Don Berns ate a whole phone off the wall... my first day as a board op, Don Berns barged into the studio and took out the CD that was playing on the air. Shock. Dead shock. That was Don. I remember Mark Williams doing his show completely nude. I remember Tony Mantz nicking a great deal of CDs from the library... I returned them to the station. I remember Liz Janek rolling the chair over some rare records.

Good times. Wish I kept more t-shirts.
