Erin's bio

I grew up on a gravel road between Granger and Woodward, Iowa (about 15 minutes northwest of Des Moines).  Music's always been in my life.  I'll listen to almost anything – Usher, Sinatra, U2, Garth Brooks, etc.  After high school, I started an internship with Kiss 107FM and have been here ever since.
 
A COUPLE OF STRANGE FACTS ABOUT ME:
I'm a woman that hates shopping.  I mean, I passionately hate shopping for clothing, shoes, groceries, you name it.  I'd much rather just go online!  Oh, and I have an infinite knowledge of all things completely random.


MOST ANNOYING HABBIT:
I'm a professional procrastinator…I just don't get paid.  Also, I have a tendency to ask and answer my own questions.  That's just because I really do know everything, I just forget some things.
 

WHAT WOULD YOU BE DOING IF YOU WEREN'T ON THE RADIO:
I could never work in a cubicle or do anything with math, first of all.  If there's another job in existence that allows me to be loud and sarcastic without getting shushed, I could try that. 
 
THE MOST EMBARASSING THING YOU'VE EVER DONE: 
I don't embarrass easily, but I have fallen UP stairs before.  To top that pathetic sundae off, it was in one of the busier halls in my high school AND it was between classes, so many people witnessed it.  Falling up stairs is a very specific skill.
 
FAVORITE KISS 107FM MOMENT:
I've had many fantastic moments here with co-workers and whatnot.  You have to love the 4th of July (I love soaking strangers with huge water guns) and St. Patrick's Day (My favorite color is green, so you can't go wrong) parades.  As far as concerts go, I have to say the Lifehouse show last month and meeting the band tops them.  Yes, Jason IS that gorgeous in person.
 
RADIO BACKGROUND:
I've been with KKDM, KPTL, KDRB consistently doing the random production here and there and operating boards since May 2003.

Brangelina Twins

Photos of Knox and Vivienne are out today...and if you'd like to see them, you can here.  I'll warn you, they're pretty boring...but babies are boring.  They were paid $14 million for these pictures.  Couldn't they have the twins doing something interesting like juggling the other kids?

Pictures From "Disturbia"'s Shoot

The video for Rihanna's "Disturbia" should be out any day now...so here are a couple pictures from the shoot (Looks like it should rock our faces):


Amy Winehouse Smokes; World Gasps Sarcastically

Amy Winehouse's father told the press that his daughter had emphysema last month, but her publicist later said that he misspoken and that Winehouse "is not diagnosed with full-blown emphysema, but instead has early signs of what could lead to emphysema."  Oh yeah, that's better. 

Either way, I'm sure this won't help:

That's Not Streaking

A fully-clothed streaker (if you can even call him that) rudely interrupted a rugby match being played by a fully naked team in New Zealand.  Kind of awesome.

Probably my favorite celebrity couple just broke up.  Jimmy Kimmel and Sarah Silverman's publicists confirmed the rumor Monday adding, "Jimmy and Sarah have no further comment".  They dated for five years and were HIlarious together.

Maybe Sarah really is *ahem* Matt Damon.

Or Jimmy's lovin' on Ben Affleck.

Happy Birthday
