Dr. Demento To End Nationally Syndicated Broadcasts - The End Of A Demented Era...

[Hardrock69]

I first heard the good doctor when I was working at my first job as a dishwasher in a restaurant in 1974.

Goofy sumbitch, but he serves a great purpose in the entertainment biz.....shedding light on the most insane records ever produced!

A SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT...
This weekend, the Dr. Demento Show will have its final broadcast on KIYU, KLOO, WLVQ (QFM96), WRKH (The Rocket) and KOZT (The Coast).

This was a very painful decision for the Doctor...he really hates to let it go after almost 40 years...but he has come to agree with his manager and his family that it's necessary. The broadcast has been losing money for some time.

THE GOOD NEWS -- Dr. Demento intends to continue producing new shows every week for www.drdemento.com for the foreseeable future. A new one will be available Saturday morning, June 12, and more new shows will be posted every Saturday thereafter.

Also...if you live in or around Amarillo, TX, you're in luck...by special agreement and due to contractual considerations, a version of the internet show will be heard weekly on KACV-FM there, at least through the summer.

The Doctor wishes to express his grateful appreciation to everyone who's been listening in Alaska, Oregon, Ohio, Alabama and California, and hopes all of you will give the www.drdemento.com broadcast a try.

Stay deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeemented!

I didn't even know he was still on.

His heyday was in the 1980s when he could get away with some seriously unpolitically correct stuff like "Kiko the Clown."

[THEDOCTOR]

Wa wa wind up your radio dementos and dementites!
Damn this sucks.
I used to wait until Sunday nights, 11 pm and record his show and make tapes of the songs I really liked that week.
Without him,some of the funniest songs Ive ever heard would not be imprinted on my brain.
Damn some of the ones I remember:
Dead puppies
Pac Man Fever
Kinko The Clown
They're coming to take me away
My Name Is Not Merv Griffen
The Scotsman
Another One rides The Bus
Highly Illogical(Leonard nimoy)
Shaving Cream
The Curly Shuffle
Fish Heads
and sooooo many more

This Doctor will be missed!
The assholes at Mtv shouldve given this guy a slot back in the 80's to air videos

[BITEYOASS]

I wish him and Weird Al could get together and form there own channel on XM or Sirius.
