the show must go on ...
It's funny how everything can change in a split second. A lot of folks have been asking me how the death of MAX 910 will effect "Bigger Than Jesus."
The answer -- I'll be goddamned if I'm going to let some bad-suit-wearing corporate chucklefuck stop MY party. The show WILL go on as scheduled.
But it's more important than ever that you check this website often for updates, information, and opportunities to participate as we get closer to the show.
We've decided to start selling advance reservations now, as we anticipate a large turnout due to the fact that we'll all be jonesing hard for Rick come June ... go to www.rickemerson.com for information on how to reserve your seats for the bargain price of $10 each.
And, as always, email me with any comments or questions.
Update
To answer a couple of frequently asked questions:
1. We had planned on making it an invitation-only show but we scored a much bigger theater than we'd anticipated, so we're able to open it up to the public.
2. Anyone who's been promised a seat -- such as all the folks who auditioned on the air and so forth -- need not worry. You'll still have seats for you and a "plus one" as promised.

Amen sister!
Rick, I am glad that everyone can at least still converse over the internet. Not as easy to flip on in the car but You are worth me turning on the computer every chance I get to see the latest on your site! You rock Rick! Keep it going.
P.S. entercom sucks turn it OFF
p.p.s. Fuck entercom with Matt
Rick, if you are reading this, Thank you so much.
My job sucks. I am a drywall repair man. Sometimes I get sent to homes where some yuppy home owner sees a bulge in her ceiling above her steinway piano and wants it fixed, I fix it. Or maybe the freakish weather of portland causes a leak in someones ceiling and the whole ceiling,cancer causing ebspestos and all, needs to be removed. I remove it. One time I was at a home where there was what looked like an explosion on the ceiling. I couldn't figure out what caused the problem so I asked the owner and he said: "Well if you really want to know, someone commited suicide here."
I fixed that.
And through all the nightmares of the daily grind, I always had a walkman with your show on.
While I was lifting 5/8ths drywall through second story windows, you were on.
And when I was sent to Camas from North Plains in rush hour traffic, you were on. When I was so hung over from listener parties that I had to stop and get a tic tac before I got my service assignments from the office, you were on. Everytime howard and robbin went to commercial, you were on, and sometimes I would forget about the Howard stern show and never turn back.
You will be missed Rick Emerson (for the time being). Through all those things and many more You helped me get through the day. I thank you, and hope to hear your show, in all it's glory, come back soon to the Portland air waves. When it does happen, I will surly be listening. F-mat with a AAA batery.
This Sucks
Rick, im a small town farm kid, currently living in honolulu, hawaii, AND IM PISSED! I read friday on your site that your show (as it is now) is no more. The spring semester at UH is almost over, and one of the things that i most looked forward to upon my return to oregon in a couple weeks was YOUR show. Not now thanks to the chucklefucks.
In the summer during work on the farm i would always listen to you, even though im 80 miles from Portland and the reception is shit-tacular, i even got a few of my friends hooked. Now that im in honolulu a drop by your site every now and then to see what's up in ricktopia, but i always looked forward to coming home and actually listening to your show.
Just wanted to let you guys know that you do have a huge influence/presence outside of Portland, and there are all kinds of people rootin for your return. Maybe I'll mail in a coffe mug, or maybe i'll just burn the whole damn place to the ground.
Anyhoot, I hope to see you back on the air real soon buddy.
It will be|! from this wise Shaman old woman, it is about 'Divine timing, don't sweat, unless your body needs to,"
It will be want to make a wager?
Hey Rick:
Your show provided hours of great entertainment to the thousands of us who just had a little time each day to escape the office grind for a lunch or errand. Of all the talk radio shows I've ever listened to, I enjoyed yours the most. It was very positive and upbeat - just what many of us needed for a quick reality fix before having to go back under the florescent lamps of cube-ville.
I've seen a lot of seemingly bad things happen to good people in my life, and more often than not something better comes out of it that was never expected. Maybe this is a good thing in disguise.
Take care and I look forward to the following your career, whatever it may be.
