I came to New Orleans because I thought I could get cheap rent after Katrina. Honestly, when you talk about the greatest American city's, only Manhattan, Boston, San Francisco and maybe Chicago can be mentioned in the same breath with NOLA. I'm honored to be living here, and to be a part of the rebuilding efforts of The Big Easy.
I grew up in a NYC suburb, went to college in the Boston area, and started doing college radio. First job was on WWRX FM in Providence, RI, where I was the overnight DJ on the classic rock station. I got fired for falling asleep during Billy Joel's "She's Always A Woman to Me". From there I went to WCCC FM in Hartford, CT., and did a rock radio show for three years. I then went to rock station WAAF FM in Boston, Ma. for nine years, where I was the Music Director/Mid-Day host. Then I went "down the hall" to 'AAF sister station, News-Talk WRKO to host a talk show for a few years.
I took a break from radio for a few years to open a bar, and help smuggle Cubans into Miami. I recently ran into the WRNO brass outside Larry Flynts' Barely Legal Club on Bourbon St., where they offered me this job. |

August 25, 2008 -- Citizens of Mandeville will no longer tolerate the behavior of the current government that has brought our great city much public humiliation. The shocking revelations as to how officials have corruptly conducted the business of the city for their personal gain has many citizens outraged. These actions combined with erratic personal behavior of some officials have tarnished the reputation of the city and citizens of Mandeville.
Federal and State investigations are underway which may eventually render the end of the current administration, but will take some time. Mandeville citizens should not tolerate patience for these activities. It is time to accelerate the process and take matters to the next level. The cooperation and support of all Mandeville citizens is needed to begin this process by recalling the Mayor of Mandeville, Eddie Price.
Recall petition chair Mike O’Connor states, "We are about to turn the last page on this sordid chapter and usher in a new period of our city. A time to restore a true sense of austerity which will grow trust and confidence in how our government is conducted. A time to take pride again, knowing the local government serves the people with respect and integrity."
Rodney Boudreaux, recall petition co-chair said, "We have the power to change it NOW and we WILL. We are taking back our city and welcome all concerned to take part and help in the process of marking this historic time. We should no longer fear our local government, but show our elected officials that this is our city and we want it run properly. We are starting to take back our city government by recalling the top position for our city, Mayor Eddie Price."
Concerned citizens of Mandeville, LA have filed a recall petition for the Mayor of Mandeville, Eddie Price. A press conference will be held at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, August 28, 2008.
For further information on how you can sign this petition or volunteer in the recall efforts, please contact mandevillerecall@gmail.com or (985)674-1007 after 5:00.
