BillG, That's The End Calling...

  • [アーティクル]

I've been patiently watching and listening to a campaign run by a local radio station (107.7 The End) to get Bill Gates on their show for an interview and their music challenge (where they face-off two local celebrities to pick their best song to play and then voted on by listeners). They started off with pleas on the radio, then a website (https://www.getbillgates.com), and even tried to contact him in person and through the Microsoft PR folks. But, no luck yet. I listen to the radio show every morning on my way in to work, and I've been hoping that they would get their interview because I think it would be really fun. So, here's my attempt to get them some more visibility...

Their "Thursday Music Challenge" is good, clean fun. Usually two contestants face off with their song choices. Typically, they've done this with local celebrities, like weathermen, the guy from the gardening show, news folk, etc. The contestant gets to pick the best song they can (any genre, any time). They play the songs. Listeners call in and vote for the song they like the best.

107.7 The End is a moderately recognizable radio station outside of the western Washington area because they started around 1992 and were involved in "discovering" many of the local grunge bands of the early 90s. And, for breaking some of the newer Seattle bands, like: Death Cab for Cutie, Aqueduct, Vendetta Red, etc. And, they were the radio station that all of the people work at on MTVs Real World Seattle.

So, Bill, if you read this blog (yeah, right?), could you go on the show, give an interview, and play their music challenge? It will be fun and a good way to get some local PR.

Or, if any other Microsoft bloggers or readers have any sway with Bill or our PR group (I talking about you Scoble), could you help out?

Finally, those of you outside of the Seattle area can listen too because The End stream their broadcast live online (I think you need to sign up for a free user account though).
