Art Bell

[VtaGeezer]

I'm not sure that many people even know who Art Bell is.  Sure, we do, and we loved the show, but in the world of entertainment - all these years later - he's almost an unknown.  I wouldn't expect any buzz.

I seldom hear anyone talk about Rush Limbaugh, and he's the best known figure in the current market.

You're not looking very hard. Twitter, FB etc see more Limbaugh traffic in an hour than Bell's had in a decade.

[VtaGeezer]

Art's not going to do anything half assed.

Ha.  This is the same guy who quit, I mean...retired...so many times we lost count.

[For Whom the Bell Tolls]

I'd be happy with a Sat and Sun. show. Would be real happy with Fri,Sat, and Sun...Weekends with Art!

He was having problems with Premiere and was stuck in a contract he wanted out of.

Art hasn't been doing radio for quite some time. Nobody knows he is coming back aside from the people who have been waiting for him to do so, and paying attention. Once there is an announcement, he will get tons of traffic.

Listening to Knapp for a bit last night, just reveling in the last bastion of class, professionalism and credibility attached to Coast, and just thinking to myself (or sending it out telepathically), "Art, please, for the love of God, take George Knapp with you on your ride...

I would like to see George Knapp go with Art as well, probably most would.

I wonder if Knapp as a once a month host would have a non-compete contract?

[Designx]

Maybe Art will manage to get a daytime or early evening slot for a show. This would solve his issues with being up late and missing his family.

I think we all can use a little "George Time."

[Sardondi]

Is that an arm tattoo or hair?

Hmmmm.....uhhhhh.....it's kind of hard to tell with all of that..... uhhhhh..... hair.

Varicose veins.

"George Time."  :   Another fine shscam, courtesy of Jorch.  Sure, sure... thousands are going to get through for their own personal "George Time" chat.  It would probably be hilarious to call just to get the almost guaranteed "hey, I'm busshhy message."


"How are ewwwwwwwww???  I'sh really shorry but I jush can't take your call at thish moment.  I'm jush shwamped wish calls from my many followers!  Don't forget to tune in to Coast tonight and cash my latest TV show, "Beeyon Beeleef!"  Ish Shwell!  Call back shoon!"

I agree, 100%. Art isn't going to do a blog, or internet radio, or even satellite radio. He's going to do a full time RADIO show. He wouldn't do it any other way. Art's not going to do anything half assed.

"Wanna Take A Ride?" has only one meaning. It is, and always has been, an invitation to his radio show. He couldn't be any clearer than that.

We do know, by his own words, that he is "bound" not to say anything more at this time.

So be patient people. We will get what we have all been hoping for.

Does this mean that his apprentice, Lord Vader, is going to bring us our reward? If he runs short someone else can have mine

why did you hide the phone number?

[Disheartened]

Ha.  This is the same guy who quit, I mean...retired...so many times we lost count.

Art said a couple of months ago that if Premier didn't stop airing the Somewhere In Time shows, he would tell the truth about his "so called retirements."

There was obviously something going on between him and Premier that the public is not aware of.

Maybe he'll spill the beans on his new show? I don't know.

[basswood]

Art on Facebook complaining about CNN right now. Looks like he's coming out of his shell 

[HorrorReporter]

Why we need him back

[GeorgieForPresident2216]

Why we need him back

yep, Art just loves the kids.

[HorrorReporter]

yep, Art just loves the kids.

I am guessing that Asia did not have her diaper changed much by Poppa Bell

[ccvortex]

Hopefully his comeback won't be an internet based show... ugh.

Noory is far down on the Imperial totem pole they wouldn't let him shine the boots that belong to the guy that shines Vader's boots. He has the equivalent rank of someone who would clean up Bantha droppings.
I am a nerd

[PABellFan]

I was afraid all these CoastGabbers would clog up the phone line in rabid anticipation.

[BobGrau]

I would like to see George Knapp go with Art as well, probably most would.

I wonder if Knapp as a once a month host would have a non-compete contract?

I wonder if there's anything to stop Knapp interviewing Art in his TV day job?

[coaster]

This George Noory N' Friends phone line will go the way of his P90X scheme, His "Shape Up North America" campaign, and all of the other half baked ideas that come tumbling out of his mouth. It will quietly disappear in a week or so.
btw, Privately speaking with Noory during "special George time" does not sound creepy in the least..

[lonevoice]

Ah yes, there are more FB/CG double agents in heaven and earth, Horatio,
Than are dreamt of in your philosophy. 

[jazmunda]

Why we need him back

I think Art forgets the play by play we received when Asia was born.

I actually agree with his sentiment but glass houses and throwing stones and all that.

[ponyboysunset]

Why does everyone think age has anything to do with it? People live a lot longer now, my mom is 68 , and let me tell you, she is not slowing down at all. Rush, Howard, Rollye, the list goes on I am sure. I am just happy it is possible, because I have nine hours to kill M-F. Hope it is true:) I think most of us who are young have no idea what being 60 is like.
