Best Radio Voice: DJ Nicky Wood
You can catch Nicky play every Saturday from 2-5 p.m. as he hosts "The Ultimate 80s Show" alongside MC Marty Marts. 93.5fm or www.wvbr.com

"Thank you. That's really cool because it's a specialty show- it's not an everyday show. I've been doing it for eight years, and I didn't realize it was so popular! The '80s is a great decade, but it seems like every radio station plays the same 20-30 songs. We try to play the tunes that you don't hear, that make you go, 'Oh my god!' Thanks to everybody that voted for me. I'm so happy about it, and I'll keep the show as alive as possible. It's always great to be appreciated in your hometown ... Thank you so very much Ithaca!"

NICKY WOOD "Thankyou so very much , it's wonderful to be appreciated by the community", reports the very busy , cherubic mixmaster Wood. "It has been a great year for me, booked out doing clubs, parties and weddings all over the North East , down to New York City, over to Boston , up to Buffalo.....and many a town in between.

I was also over in Britain & France this summer, so although I travel around a lot, Ithaca has become my hometown & base. I do enjoy it here and love spinning and mixing those dance tunes here at the legendary Haunt and of course Saturday afternoons on WVBR 93.5 fm. Thanks again,all the best."

NIGHT SHIFT: DJ NICKY WOOD
Five things you may not know about DJ Nicky Wood:
Played in 18 different countries
Spun at Madonna, Whitney Houston, Prince and Freddie Mercury parties. "It was obviously a huge thrill to play at private parties held for such huge names with talent and standing in the music world. At the time I was playing in clubs that saw the world's top musical talent coming in every night."
Had a three-year European record contract (Iceberg/EMI) with hits. "Alive & Well" was my biggest hit in north European countries, I don't actually remember the final chart high in the countries, but the year was 1986."....

SPIN DOCTOR
"S0, shall we delve into those partying days with the likes of Duran Duran and Depeche Mode?" Even though we're just having a lovely beverage at Collegetown Bagels, Nicky Wood - club DJ,Pop star,Scandanavian game show host - has that lilt, a celebrity twinkle, that makes you think that Duran Duran's Simon LeBon could walk in and sit down at any moment..."
