He Back: Mike Kennedy Q&A

Country Radio Hall of Famer Mike Kennedy retired after 40 years in the business – 30 of those at KBEQ/Kansas City – only to return after three years (CAT 9/3/19). Now programming crosstown WDAF and Hot AC KZPT, Kennedy discusses the finer points of stepping away with someone with similar experience, Country Aircheck contributor Sue Wilson. SW: What was the biggest adjustment or challenge in getting back to the dayto-day after time off? Was it physical, mental, or both? MK: Definitely not physical. I’ve been Mike Kennedy used to working a lot and playing a lot for a long time, so I kept physically active. Although I managed to stay busy, mentally I was divided in a handful of directions. Today, I am back to being totally focused on the operation of two radio stations, improving and elevating the brands in the marketplace and listening to a lot of music! I think I’m using the same amount of brain power, but have definitely reloaded the chambers with different content. As a former PD/morning talent myself, I have to ask, what has sleeping in been like for you these last three years? My wife gets up at 3am for her morning show so I am still used to waking up early. The beauty is, I could go right back to bed for a few hours, but my mornings were very consistent. I got to hang with the dogs every day, which was awesome. I was religious about listening to three morning shows in KC and a couple out of market, so I was able to offer my unsolicited opinions. I stayed up on industry news, listened to morning shows and music nearly every morning during the week and designed the rest of the day at that point. After you left, did it take a while to fully disconnect? Or did you? The short and honest answer is no. At the end of 2016 I had more than 40 years of radio, music and live events in my blood and was going to consult my first year out, so there was no full disconnect. I still had a great amount of interaction with friends on the radio and label side. (continued on page 15)

Before You Quit

[Ed. Note: Excerpted from Country Aircheck contributor Sue Wilson’s blog, this piece will likely be applicable to most professionals at some point in their career. And it’s a fitting companion to her conversation with Mike Kennedy.] Have you ever wanted to quit your day job? I just finished my first full year of selfemployment and want to share my thoughts on what to consider before you leave.

I’ve spent years in multiple formats – the last 12 in Country radio – but always wondered, “What if I had stuck with voice imaging these past 20 years? Would I be like Roberta Solomon, Jen Sweeney or a host of other female imaging pros I so admire?” Armed with probably too much confidence, I walked away from a well-paying gig to re-launch my career in voice-over and writing. I knew it wouldn’t be easy, but I would be lying if I said I wasn’t surprised at the various things that have made it tough. Here are four: • You Will Be Humbled: With a VP title, the responsibility of overseeing a couple radio stations and a staff of people reporting to me, I had a certain amount of power and privilege. That perhaps gave me an over-abundance of confidence and ego that I could do anything. Without that confidence, I may not have made the jump ... but once away from a position of authority, things change. You no longer have a staff of people looking for your direction, advice or opinion. Your phone rings less. Show biz, like any biz, is full of people who have to act like they like you to get what they need, whether it is a song played on your station or a staff member wanting something. Now, the decisions you make affect far fewer people. Advice? Don’t be a jerk. Be the person people will miss (not be relieved) when you turn in your resignation. Be the boss you’d want to report to. Be clear, honest and fair. Be the colleague people will want to stay in touch with when you don’t have power anymore. • You Will Grieve: If your work was a big part of your identity, you’ll miss it. Or maybe you won’t, but I do. I loved actively creating with other people. I loved my team. I loved brainstorming ideas for marketing, contests and promotions and writing creative copy. And the music! Country radio is especially known for its relationships. Record label reps became my friends, and many artists have my cell number. They actively communicated with me on a regular basis. I miss all of that. There was pressure, sure. There was nonsense, politics and hard work. But when you do something for so many years and then stop, you will grieve that part of your identity. Consider and come to grips with that. • Ageism Is A Thing: But don’t let it stop you. I’m at that strange time where I’m closer to the end of my career than the beginning but not yet at retirement age. Questions about how I’m enjoying retirement challenge me to not sound defensive or aggressive in explaining that I’m not retired. In fact, I am working a lot harder for a lot less. When you leave a job, you may find yourself competing with people a good bit younger. You have experience that is incredibly valuable, so don’t let age shake your confidence. In the right situation, you can mentor someone

younger, and they, in turn, can mentor you. The best work situation is a diverse one, so be proud of the experience and the knowledge you bring and use it to your advantage. • Live On Less: A lot less. Most financial expert encourages people to live well below their means, and I can’t stress that enough. I saved half of every paycheck for more than a year. I set a goal of how much I would need to live on (to pay the mortgage, utilities and have some sort of fun money) just in case I didn’t get any clients for the first six months. If you have a partner who is bringing in an income, whether it is less or more, live on just one income for at least that long. When you really pay attention to where your money goes, you realize how much you waste on stuff you don’t need. Even though I thought I had a grip on the

My Tunes: Amanda Burd KHGE/Fresno PD/afternoons Amanda “McGraw” Burd discusses her most influential music: Taylor Swift is my biggest inspiration, because she took control of her career from the very beginning. She is a truly masterful writer. Every album hits me in entirely different ways. From her country roots to transitioning into pop, she allowed herself to evolve while Amanda Burd still feeling and sounding completely like Taylor. My favorite is a deep cut on Red, “All Too Well.” It’s the best song she’s ever written. It makes me cry every time. Kacey Musgraves’ Golden Hour was an album that spoke to my soul. Songs like “Lonely Weekend” and “Happy & Sad” feel like Kacey went right into my heart and wrote them about me. Keith Urban is who I think of listening to in the summertime during my childhood. He was the first country artist I truly loved … and still do. I go back to “Stupid Boy,” “I Told You So” and “Days Go By” all the time. In my eyes, there is no one like Keith. Lady Gaga’s rise to fame was so captivating while I was in high school and early college. I never knew what to expect next from her. She’s unpredictable and never cared one bit if people thought she was strange or too “out there.” She represented people who felt like they didn’t fit in by saying it’s totally okay to not fit in. It’s what makes you special. The Story So Far’s Under Soil And Dirt is one of the albums I still listen all the way through. The music allows me to let go of any pent up aggression or negative emotions. I yell along, and it’s a release for me. • Highly-regarded music you’ve actually never heard: I don’t think I’ve ever heard more than a couple of songs, if that, by U2. • An “important” piece or style of music you just don’t get: Most EDM is very lost on me. Especially if it’s all beats and no vocals. The build up to the beat drop makes me anxious. I need melody and vocals in my music. • An obscure or non-country song everyone should listen to right now: “July” by Noah Cyrus, specifically the version featuring Leon Bridges. Noah fell in Miley’s shadow a bit, and this song really showcases her own style and sound. It’s beautiful. • Music you’d rather not admit to enjoying: I have zero musical shame, but everyone likes to make fun of me for my love of the Jonas Brothers. Seeing them back together fills my heart with joy. I’m about to see them in concert for the second time this year and cannot wait. I’m a Jo Bros girl for life, and I don’t care who knows it!

finances, this past year has taught me some financial lessons. It’s been a scary year of rebirth and growth, exciting successes and more than a few disappointments. I thought my name, my track record and my list of accomplishments would have people lining up as clients left and right. Ha! It’s been a little harder than I thought, but I do have great clients I am proud to represent. And I’m still plugging away. –Sue Wilson

We Back In The Saddle

Macon Music/Broken Bow’s Jason Aldean launched his 2020 We Back Tour Jan. 30 in Columbia, SC with Big Loud’s Morgan Wallen and BMGLR’s Riley Green as support. iHeartMedia WCOS/Columbia, SC APD/MD/afternoon personality Andy Woods was on hand and shares his takeaways. Staging for the We Back Tour is rectangular with a triangle-shaped “runway” of sorts, according to Woods, who notes the usage of lighting effects, smoke and large screens throughout the show. “When Aldean was coming onstage, the screen flashed the name of the tour and his silhouette as if he were getting closer to the audience from behind the screen,” he explains. Jason Aldean Aldean’s set opened with “Take A Little Ride” before a litany of hits ensued, including “Crazy Town,” “Amarillo Sky,” “Big Green Tractor,” “Drowns The Whiskey,” “My Kinda Party,” “She’s Country” and more, all of which will be familiar to radio listeners. “During the show, Jason told the audience he had surprises up his sleeve, and then he brought out Darius Rucker,” says Woods. The two collaborated on Rucker’s “Wagon Wheel” before covering the Hootie and the Blowfish hit “Let Her Cry.” Rucker, a South Carolina native, wasn’t the only regional nod. “Aldean mentioned there were some Georgia fans in the audience, which made the whole arena shout their varying allegiances,” jokes Woods. “He then gave the Gamecocks credit for beating Georgia this past season, which had the audience erupting into loud cheers.” Aldean’s closing number was “The Only Way I Know,” and in what has become his preferred fashion, there was no encore. “Jason said during the middle of the show that he was going to play hard all night and, ‘When I say it’s over, it’s done,’” explains

He Back: Mike Kennedy Q&A (continued from page 1) Even if I wanted to, I don’t think I could have shut it down. So why retire? That’s tough to explain. It’s much like how I answer the question about un-retiring. Were you bored? Not really. Were you just exhausted? No, not really. I just had a gut feeling that the timing was right. I had been kicking around the idea for a couple of years and decided to quit agonizing and analyzing. The

radio stations I was leaving were in good shape, I had no more ownership interests in radio, the slate was pretty clean and my mother actually wanted to hang out with me. My wife was fully on board, as I know she was somewhat tired of the schedule we kept over the last few decades. One word: timing. During your time away, were you able to tune in like a listener? I don’t think I can ever listen to the radio as a listener again. During my off time, I certainly couldn’t. The only time I can relax as a listener is when it’s my own playlist, and that mainly happens on the boat. Otherwise, I’ve got a radio nearby. Now, being able to listen without the day-to-day responsibility of running a station allowed me to at least listen differently. It’s amazing what you can hear and process when you’re really listening, not staring at a computer or scheduling music. In today’s world I know it’s hard, but if you really care about what’s coming out of your station, it’s worth the exercise. Did you have any a-ha moments in that? A lot. Even in this environment, it still feels like radio has an advantage in the use of talent. That’s missing more often than not on many stations. Dust me off if I sound like an antique, but I still believe in the connection our talent can make with listeners, and that it’s paramount in our success. No matter where you get your music, entertainment or information, the biggest characters and personalities cut through and have success. So why do we handcuff our most valuable assets? Our product has someone you can actually bond with and we should take advantage of that. Yes, even today. What changed while you were away from the dayto-day? Over the years there would be overloads of new music and new artists, and this feels like one of those times. My last few years

Page 17

at radio we didn’t have as much information and metrics before artists were introduced to radio. Seeing and hearing all that information takes some getting used to and can give new artists some legitimacy. It’s also mind-boggling. One thing I didn’t play close attention to was the chart, but what I’ve seen since being back is a log jam after the top 30-35 songs, which really bothers me. There is some really good music just sitting there that needs to be heard. I also see superstar artists making some good new music and, honestly, some who are not giving us the best songs and we’re giving them a pass. What did you miss most? The social aspect? Artists? The music? Yes, yes and yes! I still managed to attend many concerts, having long been a live music junkie. I’m a big music fan, especially new music, and missed “radio visit” day. I did miss visiting with artists ... they meet a ton of people and have a lot of demands on them, so I was only able to stay in contact with a handful. I mainly tried to stay out of the way and watch shows. I’m hoping to meet my son-in-law finally when they play KC this April (laughs). You somewhat addressed the decision to return, but were there other factors? We had worked on buying a radio station in my hometown for about a year and that deal fell flat in the spring of 2019. Wes Poe was winding down his career at WDAF, so I had a couple of conversations with the folks at Entercom about dayto-day radio and the cool things coming to Entercom/KC. It was just a great fit. I get to program Country again, a Hot AC, and now, WDAF is the official home of the Kansas City Chiefs radio network! –Sue Wilson CAC
