  • I married a guy from Trenton, cause I wanted to go on bandstand and was actually in love with Seaside (I grew up in St.Louis) I used to beg my new husband to just drive close enough to Philly to pick up the geator's radio show....we would sit in the cold car and get hot!!!!

    GoGo

  • I have moved away from Philly but Jerry is seared into my brain, just like soft pretzels and Connie Mack Stadium. Rock on, Boss with the Big Hot Sauce!

  • I used to go to all the dances like Wagners. I remember the star dancers Eddie Nixon, his brother Bobby and the man I had a great crush on when I was fourteen

    Richie Craven. Where has all the time gone. Jerry Blavat's face looks exactly the same.

  • JERRY REMEMBER MANY YRS AGO I CAME TO YOUR RADIO STATION DOWN AT 6TH& MARKET STREET AT THE TIME I WAS GOING THRU MY COURT CASE YOU WERE ALL PARANOID WORRIED THEY WOULD CONNECT YOU WITH ME PHONE PERSON WRITER ODDSMAKER RED/BLACK SHEET THE GOOD OLD DAYS RICE PAPER BUCKET OF WATER REMEMBER WHAT I ASKED YOU YOU COULDNT COME THRU! I DO RESPECT YOU FOR YOUR DJ TALENT AND THE MUSIC YOU PLAY HOPE YOUR STAYING AWAY FROM THE NOSE CANDY EVEN I GAVE ALL THE SHIT UP I JUST CANT BREAK THE 1 THING THATS MY GIG

  • Often imitated, but will never be duplicated!!

    Keep on rockin', Geator!!

  • I have been entertained by Mr. Blavat hundreds of times, but today I met him in my taxi taking him to the Airport. He is genuine, what you see in the limelight is what you get. Very kind and makes your day.

  •  I want to agree and disagree with Mr. Blavat. This is a great interview and topic.

  • Outside of the classic music, this era will remain young and vibrant for all time.

  • Oh no my mother loved this guy when I was 15 in 1965.

  • The Geater with the Heater The Boss with the hot sauce.....woooo hoooo Wagners....Philly Rules!!!!
