Axemen, a Dark Horse, 007 and a trip to the mall...


It was another busy week at Magic 94.9...


The $10,000 County Fair Mall Shopping Spree contest is off and running, as I had the chance to award Sharon Gibson of Kingston a Pearl/Smokey Quartz Necklace from Charm Diamond Centres Friday afternoon in New Minas. This week another $200 gift certificate from Charm up for grabs, so don't forget to fill up your stamp cards at the County Fair Mall for your chance to win great weekly prizes and the Grand Prize of a $10,000 shopping spree on December 20th!


Saturday took me to War Memorial Gymnasium in Wolfville, as the Acadia basketball teams had their home openers against the visiting Cape Breton University Capers. The Axewomen had a tough outing, dropping to 0-4 on the season after a 89-45 loss. The Axemen, after being tied at 44 at the half, let the game slip away, dropping a 76-67 decision. Score aside, War Memorial was packed and the crowd was amped up for hoops. At halftime, I Hosted Tic-Tac-Toe for Cash with the Herald, and after pressure from the heckling crowd, the older of the two participating competitors gave his cash to the little kid who actually won the shooting contest, but couldn't quite figure out how Tic-Tac-Toe worked. Way to go Older Guy. You Da Man.


Last night, I saw the new Bond flick "Quantum of Solace". If you didn't see "Casino Royale" yet, see it first. This is the first sequel in the 198 years (rough estimate) that Bond movies have been in theatres, and even having seen "Casino" I found myself foggy on some of the plot for "Quantum". All said though, if you love Bond Flicks for their hot cars, lovely ladies and intense action...you won't be disappointed...and I must say, Daniel Craig is growing on me as 007.


Today...I'm listening to "Dark Horse"...the new cd from Nickelback that drops tomorrow. So far...big fan. Little heavier, little raunchy...but hey...that's what we love about Nickelback right? Be sure to check out our Global Album Premiere of "Dark Horse" tonight at 9:00 on Magic 94.9!

Congrats to our winners who filled out a ballot for a chance to check it out before it's released too.


Feel free to drop me a line anytime and let me know what you think of Dark Horse, Bond, the Axemen or Kraft's Even Cheesier Original Kraft Dinner. mailto:hunter.brule@magic949.ca
