Friday August 21, 2009: First of all, Happy Birthday to my sister Lola!!!!!!! I love you Lola! Well, the last few hours have been pretty darn crazy and exciting. Okay, here’s what happened yesterday. It’s about 9:45am and we’re basically done on the air and I’m ready to leave early. I say goodbye to everyone and turn off the lights in my studio and walk out to my car, where one of my bosses was standing in the hallway waiting for me. He says, “hey Tommy, we need you and Jeff and Jer upstairs right now”. It was there, I said to myself, “uh oh, here it is, today was our last show”.
We’ve known for months our last show would most likely be at the end of our deal which was to be 8/31. BUT, they pulled us early which they had every right to. Jeff and Jer and Clearchannel had negotiations going on and for one reason or another did not come to an agreement and that’s all I need to say about that, because that’s the past and Jeff and Jer chose for us to be all together and to continue to be family to our listeners and that’s all I care about.
I love Jeff and Jer. I love Laura, Randy, Emily, and Delana. We are a family and we have grown so close together through all this for the last several months. It’s only getting out to the public NOW because you don’t hear us on the air. BUT, we have been prepared for many weeks to months now for this day.
WHERE WILL WE BE NEXT? We will tell you the very moment we can officially.
I am so proud of being on Jeff and Jer and being with YOU our listeners for 21 years now and MORE coming soon. We have the best listeners in the world. We’ve been through a lot together. We’ve been married, divorced, births, deaths, graduations, sobriety, NON SOBRIETY, girlfriends, fiancés, breakups, fat, skinny, rich, poor, and much more all together on the air with you. We will keep it that way.
Laura and I are really close these days! She’s like my best friend. She really is. If I didn’t know Laura so well like a sister, I would be hitting on her. J If and when I do get married, Laura and my son Eddie will be my best men.
We are all okay and we are all working towards getting back with you OUR FAMILY on the air soon. Just keep coming to www.jeffandjer.com and keep emailing us and we will do the same.
I can take this time off and finally try to lose that final 20 pounds.
Jeff and Jer did a lot of TV this morning and tonight. We will post some of the links up soon.
GO CHULA VISTA LITTLE LEAGUE!
I love you so much and we are all fine and we miss you and we will be on the air shortly.
I will blog daily to give you updates and Laura will do her diary as well…
Love,
Tommy

I've been following the showgram since DAY ONE at Y95 and will follow you wherever you go. I have NO DOUBT that you will be on air soon. Have a great vacation until then. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm so proud of you guys for sticking together! The show would not be the same without Laura, Randy, Tommy, Delana and Emily. Can't wait for you to be back on the air. SOON!
ReplyDeleteStar is out, and what ever channel you all switch to will be in. I can't remember a time living in San Diego that your voices were not the first thing I heard in the morning. I turned it right off this morning, it was just too weird. hurry back!! Just one question.....what about Delana?
ReplyDeleteMissed you guys this morning-- but so glad that you stuck to your guns and will stay all together! I have been a listener since 6th grade (I'm turning 30 this year--- shhh) and loved every laugh with you all!

I listen from afar..Chesapeake VA and I can't wait to find out where I am going to be listening to you at next!! Enjoy your time off, I am sure you will love the extra time with your mom and the kids and best of luck with the 20 pounds..!!!
