10 Years of Sex to 9 on the radio! |
Posted Friday, May 15, 2009 by Maria |
Yes, Sex to 9 is 10 years old!
It feels like it was yesterday whenI was given the Friday slot on RRN in those days, what would later become TotalRock, and yet so much has happened.
I'm sure thatmany would not have given a dime for a show with a silly name, presented by aforeigner, not to mention that I was playing all these obscure bandsthat no one knew in the UK. The truth be told, there were some peoplein the early days that were not exactly supportive, but, oh well! whereare they now? I'm still on air, in fact the longest running show onTotalRock...who would have said? So allow me to pride myself on this littleachievement.
I've always tried to do things with passion andhonesty, never step on other people's toes, do my own thing and begenuine. I firmly believe that otherwise, it's not worth doing it.
Far from bitter, I feel blessed and incredibly grateful to many, many, many people.
Ofcourse to my TotalRock family (at least the ones that believed in me),to the labels (the ones that cared and realized it was all about promotingmusic and not a groupies competition).
To all the bands: thank you for the music, for the interviews, for supporting the show. You've got all my respect.
Tothe listeners: you guys have made the show what it is, plus youinvented the concept of "sextoniner", way more than just listeners! I'mforever grateful.
Of course we wouldn't be on air without Yods.My beautiful husband Micah is the backbone of Sex to 9. Without hisfaith and support nothing would have been possible. This show is asmuch his as mine.
Here's to many more years of great music
See you on the airwaves!

Apologies to all those who tuned in last Friday the 10th, I had left the show pre recorded before going away but unfortunately there was a mixtake uploading the show on TotalRock's end and it didn't go out. I am truly sorry.
