It says that there will be no repeats so I'm guessing it's a one time only special for the 4th. The weekend should have a different show.

I thought SXM aired this last year, I could be wrong. I have the show and it's funny to hear Casey's introductions in particular his intro to the Mark Lindsey song. Casey has a lot to say and tries to squeeze it all in before the song starts. I know at that point he recorded the show live, but couldn't they have checked his written intro verses the songs intro and make sure there was enough space? Love how his delivery is very different from what we would become used to.

SXM posted some comments about the start of AT40 on their facebook page in connection with airing the first show. Here are some highlights.....
Casey's sign off is actually a derived quote from President Theodore Roosevelt to the Groton School (Massachusetts) in 1904. "Be practical as well as generous in your deeds. Keep your eyes on the stars and your feet on the ground."
Also noted is that the show was recorded in a 'broom closet sized studio' hand-built by an out of work actor who knew carpentry by the name of Harrison Ford. And Pete's comment about the name being American instead of National Top 40 is included.

Anyone listen to their own show today and not an offering by someone else? I listened to Casey's Top 40 Acts of the 80s this morning.

Isn't WMGN also airing the first show today? Their website said 4 to 7pm I think. That's 5 to 8 Eastern, right?
If I have that wrong (especially the time) let me know?

It's 5 pm EST. Enjoy the show! EDT, actually. EST is the same as CDT. I did enjoy the show--I finally heard the very first AT40! Then I had to run to the computer to shut off Delilah (shudder)!  Anyway, thanks for posting that WMGN would be running it--it was awesome! |
