Looks like CNN is on the hunt for a new announcer. Here's a funny one. Ozzy Osbourne auditions for CNN and Anderson Cooper.

You beat me to posting that link by just minutes, Mr. Miles.

Nice to have another Miles on board. Welcome.

After having worked with Mr. Osbourne backstage and onstage a few times, I'm amazed he can find the floor when he wakes up in the morning.

John,

Welcome to the VO-BB. And Bob, how do we know that he does (find the floor, I mean)? Smile

Does Anderson Cooper know about Peter's search for the REAL NBC voice?

Many of us were MORE than dismayed over NBC's chioce of Michael Douglas as their new announcer on Nightly News. One voiceover guy - Peter K. O'Connell - started his own "unofficial" auditions to find a new announcer.

Now, he's opened up the polls for voting.

Tis all in fun of course!

Hey Ozzy. Remember me? No?? You held a high powered pressure sprayer to the back of my head when I wasn't looking and pulled the trigger.

Still don't remember?

I understand. I saw what happened when the teleprompter stopped working and you didn't know the words to your own songs.

Bob, you are right, he hasn't hit the floor, he's still falling.

From what I hear, he doesn't need to know the words to his songs anymore since he isn't the one singing most of them during his concerts aynways.

Thanks for the warm welcome Bruce and Bob. I stop by often and have found lots of wonderful "nuggets" about the VO business. A solid community here for sure.
