Hit After Hit, Smash After Smash, Blockbuster After Blockbuster... Here was another "monster" lunch where the "stars" don't wait to come out at night. They're there at lunchtime!
This was our spring potpourri of speakers!" It was held at the Bala Golf Club, 2200 Belmont Avenue in Philadelphia on Wednesday, April 20th (that's the third Wednesday of the month).
Our MC for the afternoon was member Jerry Del Colliano, publisher/editor of the media blog Inside Music Media. He was publisher/founder of Inside Radio, a trade publication sold to Clear Channel in 2002. Jerry has been Program director for two Philadelphia radio stations, air talent at five Philadelphia radio stations and was on-air talent at WFIL-TV, Channel 6.
Our speakers were all members and they were (in alphabetical order):
