Day 2 of Tradio for Maroon 5 tickets brought some incredible offers to the table! Two pogo sticks and a trampoline! A Psychology assessment for all three members of the show. A hot pink Snake stuffie with sequins and an afro wig. Some really random things were brought forward! Back in the day Marc and Fuzzy were able to acquire an accordion so we were really hoping to be able to add a musical instrument to that. Thankfully Lana came forward and offered us a BANJO!!! Whoooo!! Look out for the Virgin Morning Show Band featuring Uncle Boris' Accordion and some sweet Banjo pickin'! Marc will use this photo as inspiration for our first album! Check through your basement and garage for anything you'd be willing to tradio and you could win Maroon 5 tickets!

Tradio for Maroon 5

Maroon 5 is in town on March 7th and we've got tickets everyday this week! We're being selfish and want to benefit from giving these tickets away so we're looking for sweet things we can trade with Tradio! We had some AMAZING offers this morning like baking, tires, treadmills and wigs. SUPER random! A big congrats to Kris! He managed to get Marc, Danaye and Fuzzy to agree on his Tradio item: a Gene Simmons from KISS Plasma Light!!! Make sure you take a look around your place for interesting "Tradable" things. That random item could win you Maroon 5 Tix!!

Fuzzy Sings the Oscars

The Oscars are this weekend! It should be a less boring awards show than we've seen in the past. Seth McFarlane is hosting and there are movies nominated that some of us have actually seen! It should be good! Fuzzy tried to tell Marc and Danaye that no one has seen any of the movies. We proved that wrong with the Scientific Survey. Lots of people have seen Django Unchained, Argo and Life of Pi. For those who haven't, Fuzzy performed his very special "Fuzzicles" to explain the plots of these movies. HINT: His descriptions are NOT accurate. Very funny though! Hear them here: http://calgary.virginradio.ca/Episodes.aspx?PID=1678 If all else fails and it ends up being boring anyway- play the Oscar Drinking Game! Tune in Monday morning to hear the Virgin Style Guys Jason and Aly discuss Oscar Fashion and to find out how you can score tickets to see Maroon 5 on March ...

He Loves Me He Loves Me Not- Robin has been dating Simon for 3 months. Recently she heard him talking to someone on the phone and saying "I'm so excited to see Chrissy!". Obviously she was worried this was another woman. So we called to see who he would send the roses to. He did send them to Robin. So, who's Chrissy? Find out here: http://calgary.virginradio.ca/Episodes.aspx?PID=2399 Virgin Morning Show Half-Time Show- Beyonce is performing at the Super Bowl this weekend, but she shouldn't get all the glory. The Virgin Morning Show did their own halftime show this morning with Adam rapping, Danaye playing the accordion and Fuzzy beat boxing. Thought Rebecca Black's Friday couldn't get any worse? You're wrong. Check out the mash up OH Friday here: http://calgary.virginradio.ca/Episodes.aspx?PID=1881 Worst Way to Find out You're Unemployed- Employees of a Calgary Future Shop showed up to ...

Sweetest Husband in the City- This morning we met Shane. He's been making the men of Calgary look bad for 15 years. That's when he started writing love notes to his wife Sandy in the snow at MacLeod Trail and Canyon Meadows Drive. We had woman call and ask about him yesterday and we had to hunt him down! Guys- we'll keep him on stand by so you can hit him up for some Valentine's Day advice. He Loves Me He Loves Me Not- We talked to a girl who was helping her friend venture into online dating. They were going through potential dating candidates when her boyfriend of a year popped up! His profile is still active. Did he just forgot to delete it? Or is he still looking for something else? Confession Day- Lance Armstrong makes his confession about doping to Oprah tonight. We thought it ...

Drinking Mirror- It's a new app released by the Scottish government to show the effects of drinking on your looks. The Virgin Morning Show submitted their pictures and said they have 10 drinks a week. The results are SCARY: Messages to Sandy- For the last 15-20 years someone has been writing messages to a woman named Sandy on MacLeod Trail and Canyon Meadows Drive. This morning he was at it again with the message "Sandy-You Are My Sunshine". We had a woman call and ask us to please find out the deal with this! We did track down a few people who know the man- his name is Shane and he's a sweetheart. Hoping to track him down! He'd be a great for Valentine's Day tips! If you're ______ You probably shouldn't be _________: A woman who was 9 months pregnant was at a nightclub when ...

Pay Your Bills- We had our first non-winner for Pay Your Bills this morning. We called Calvin's name so we could pay his Lulu Lemon and Bay bill but he did NOT call back in 9 minutes and 85 seconds so he did no have his bill paid! Make sure if you've submitted a bill you set a reminder to listen at 7:10, 11:10 and 5:10pm. Timberlake's Back- Justin Timberlake released a video of him heading into a studio and saying "I'm Ready" yesterday. That video then led to another countdown to Sunday night, which we're obviously hoping it when he'll release a new single. If Justin comes back, you have to think that someone should leave. There's only so much room in the pop music "bed" and someone's gotta roll over and fall out. Who do you think should be done? The most common answer: Psy. ...

Pay Your Bills- Jessy Pick's puppy has had a rough go of it. Her Puggle "Keeper" got an infection on her leg and had to have it amputated. The puppy is fine and it hasn't even really slowed her down, but the vet bill did some major damage to Jessy's finances. We called her name and she called back in the 9 minutes and 85 seconds so we'll cover her vet expenses! You're Not Invited Uninvitations- There's a new trend where couples are sending out cards to tell people they won't be invited to their wedding. How awkward is that? Yes, it's tough to invite everyone you want to or that your parents want to, but is it really necessary to send an "Uninvitation?". Probably better to explain the situation in person so they people you're not inviting don't get excited when they see a piece of mail come ...

Pay Your Bills- We're 3 for 3 on the Virgin Morning Show! Yay! Congrats to Carmen, she called back within 9 minutes and 85 seconds and will have her Enmax bill paid! I Love My Significant Other But I Can't do ______ with them- Fuzzy of course loves his wife Shan, but she's a total distraction when they go to the gym together and it cuts back on his work out time! What can you not do with your significant other? Danaye can't go grocery shopping because Matt like to get things done quick and she likes to take her time. They also get way too competitive when they play board games against each other. The number one thing people hate to do with their partners according to Virgin Listeners? Drive. Tomorrow- Be listening at 7:10 to hear your name for Pay Your Bills! If it's you and ...
