A surprise this morning !! I turned in to an Albany NY station and heard a recorded message from Taylor. "This is Taylor Hicks of the Soul Patrol saying hello to Rick and Laura (the morning DJ team) at 99.5 " Then Rick and Laura started talking about Taylor in Grease and (of course) the signal faded, but when it came back on they were discussing the possibility of Grease touring to Proctor's Theatre in Albany. I got the impression it was just speculation...... but wow, that would be neat if it did indeed happen !
P.S. Maybe I have just not heard these radio spots before. Has anyone heard Taylor on their local stations?
Not at all! You are lucky!
Are you kidding? I FINALLY heard one of his songs on the radio for the FIRST time ever when I was in Lowe's two weeks ago. It was Just To Feel That Way. I think it is pretty rare that you actually heard him do a spot. Good for you!
This is Taylor Hicks of the Soul Patrol
Great way to start the day Duff!
I complimented the radio station and said Taylor has lots of fan here in the Northeast and got a plug in for NESP. Got this back:

Nice to know they have surfed around for more info on Taylor !!
This is great, Duff! The Soulman doing press stuff is always a treat. And I love that the show was doing some web searching on him.
I so miss him!
