Nice - thanks Mike. Apart from the ads.

UPDATE: i HAVE TALKED WITH KEITH, THE PROGRAM DIRECTOR FOR THIS STATION.
i ASKED HIM TO PLAY MORE AND MORE DORIS...SO HERE IS THE DEAL.
1. He agrees that Doris is the best female voice of the 20th Century.
2. He also agrees to play at least one Doris Song every hour between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m.
3. I agreed to send him a slew of song files. He only has 15 songs by her at the station.
4. We will rectify that shortly.
5. So....listen and enjoy!!!!

Mike~
Thank you very much for what you are doing. The people on Twitter are listening to the same Doris songs over and over and over because they mention what songs of hers they listen to and it's the same 5. We can all help you, if you need something. What a great project for Doris!!

Mike,
It is so nice to hear such good news about hearing Doris on the radio more and more. Thank you for all your good work and efforts to get Doris on the radio again. Will try to listen to Fred Net via the computer. Keep up the great work MIke!

FYI:
I have asked the Program Director if there is anything that we fans can do to insure that this station will stay on the air. I will let you know how he responds.
Meanwhile...I have sent 25 song files (and 6 for Christmas). The songs are already in the station's rotation. He is playing one Doris every hour from 6 a m to 6 p m (two of those played this morning are ones i sent)

HOORAY....IT'S GONNA BE A LOVELY DAY FOR DO DO DAY~~~

[mikeydv]

UPDATE:
iF YOU GUYS ARE NOT LISTENING YET...GET TO IT.
Keith, the program director, now plays doris every hour between half past and quarter of the hour.

He also plans to do a DORIS DAY HOUR once a week...I will let you know when.


Here is one of the recent emails I received from him:

Mike,

Heck with all those songs we could do a 1 hour weekly program
just on Doris Day!! Thanks for the pic.. I am putting it in the
library. I have already set up the automation to pull Doris's music
between XX:32 to XX:59 every hour . Feel free to send me the mp3 files over the Internet.

You know I put FredNetRadio.com because I was so sick of the
way radio is now operated. I founded it to sound like radio was when
I started in the business in the early 60's. Besides owning,
managing and engineering on the station level, I "retired" after 25
years with the Westwood One/CBS Radio Network.

In my time I have met many wonderful people but never had the
opportunity meeting Doris Day but I have enjoyed her music and acting
over the years.


Best wishes,

Keith SUPPORT THIS STATION FOR DORIS!

fyi: Keith has joined the DORIS DAY PAGE on facebook. Hooray.

HARD TO TELL IF EVERYONE IS LISTENING TO THIS PROGRAM...BUT KEITH, THE PROGRAM DIRECTOR, IS BEING TRUE TO HIS WORD. HE PLAYS A DORIS SONG EVERY SINGLE HOUR, AND SOMETIME MORE OFTEN. I CAN'T SAY ENOUGH THAT I HOPE YOU ARE ALL LISTENING AND KEEPING THE SHOW GOING...HE NEEDS TO KNOW WE LIKE IT.

They also play Doris a lot on SIRIUS XM Radio. I heard her on it last Sunday.

[Vicki M]

Which station on XM? I would love to tune in.

[daybyday08]

Channel 75 : Siriusly Sinatra

[mikeydv]

Frankly (no pun intended), you can keep the Seriously Sinatra with a possible Doris song once a week or so.
I prefer http://www.frednetradio.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; The Program Director is not only playing doris songs EVERY HOUR of EVERY DAY (24/7), but he is also playing longer compilations (like the Medleys she sang with Perry Como and John Denver). And most times, if he plays a duet by Doris and whoever, he will then play a solo in the same hour. I frankly don't see why any real Doris fans don't listen to this station all the time.
IT IS A GREAT ......and well worth your time. Besides...the PR Director is very reachable!

[Dianne]

I'm listening to Doris sing "My Life's Desire" right now!!!! Thank you Mikey!!!! I love this station!

November 18, Friday
I am both humbled and flattered. Keith (the program director at frednet) has dedicated today to me..He is calling it Mike DeVita Day in thanks for all the song files I have sent him from my Doris collection. I am sure he knows that was a labor of love for me, but I am glad that he is happy. In so doing, I am sure there will be lots of Doris Music on today for all of us. ENJOY!

[Peter Flapper]

Hi mister Mike,

Your getting to be a celebrity yourself... I heard your name mentioned a couple of times now. Thanks for sharing this great station and your music with us.

P

[mikeydv]

You know you are welcome....Anything for Doris is what I have always said. I am only too happy that people are out there and that they are listening to the best music ever recorded by the greatest voice ever alive...and that voice will be around as long as there is such a thing as music and airwaves. Thank you, god..and Doris, too! (you angel)

[sunnygail]

I think this is wonderful. Maybe some more of the young folks will discover this talented lady. Bill

I love this station! Perfect music to do housework to, which I did this evening and it wasn't a chore at all with the likes of Doris singing.

[mikeydv]

The station director plays at least two Doris Christmas songs now every hour....and he seems to really like:
BABY IT'S COLD OUTSIDE (DUET WITH HOPE)/ RIDE WITH SANTA (DUET WITH CROSBY) We will take it.

[howard]

I never heard of "Ride with Santa." Where is it from?

[mikeydv]

She sang it on one occasion when both were on Bob Hope Radio Show sometime in the late 40's. Thanks to Peter Flapper, I was able to send a copy of it to the radio station.

[howard]

Any chance of it being posted on the forum? I'd love to hear it!

[mikeydv]

Believe it or not, I have forgotten how to do it. I will be happy to send a copy to Bryan, and see if he will do it for us. thanks.
