Famous Firsts with Matt Minguez

Part-time sports writer for a local newspaper.
Aaron Carter in 2000. First rock concert was 3 Doors Down, Seether, and Hoobastank.
Oh man, probably a Nickelback, Green Day, or Fall Out Boy record (those were the hits in my era).
I got to interview River Gibson of the band LVVRs, a local band here in South Louisiana. Really great experience to hear about his success and the band's new music.
One of my first days doing music radio (started in radio as a sports talk host), I opened my mic and started to talk, feeling really confident about what I was doing. That was, until I noticed I didn't switch the system from being run by the computer to manual. So none of what I said went over the air. Needless to say, my confidence went away quickly. HAHAHA
