Turned on VOCM this morning and Brian O'Connell is hosting the Irish
Newfoundland Show ?? I thought he was station manager at OZ.

I could be wrong but when he left VOCM for Oz-Fm in 2002 or
2003..didn't OZ Fm run a TV commercial with him on a Metrobus covered
in OZ Fm logos..he was wearing the flashy yellow VOCM jacket...he
takes the jacket off ......throws it in front the bus and the bus runs
over it and this was all shot outside the radio station on Kenmount
Road.

This was all around the time Randy Snow left OZ for Hits FM

I definitely remember the commercial ..could be wrong about the radio
DJ involved ..not sure if it was him... I do know the crowd at VOCM
were pissed with the commercial!!!

You are correct regarding the commercial!

It was a nasty split, maybe they made up and Brian is back as a part
of the Steele family again

O'Connell and OZ parted ways quite some time ago. He has set up a media
consulting company since then I had heard, but I guess a little extra
cabbage doesn't hurt. Very interesting indeed.
