I'm a day one fan, years ago after he left HOT he worked at a station in Brooklyn, it was like 90.9 Fm. I was driving to work and he was on the air waves telling listeners to come to station and get an autographed book. I went, he let me in during the live show, saw him DX21 and white trash elene. It was a great day, and I still have the autographed book.
