Yes I Am Wireless - Concert
April 7, 2003

Listen (How to Listen)

 

(music: theme)

Dale Connelly: This section of our show is brought to you by Yes I Am Wireless, inviting you to share the wonder.

(sfx: audience vox)

Jim Ed Poole: (loud, on phone) Yo, Sammy! I'm at a concert!

Yes I Am!

I'm sitting in the audience, waiting for the music to begin!

I dunno! Some kind of orchestra or something!

DC: Everyone is turning to the freedom and flexibility of cellular communication and being always available, always in touch. And when people think about what they want to say through the magic of this new medium, one of the first things they want to say is ...

JEP: Yes, I Am! I'm right up in front!

(music: theme fade out)

No, I got the tickets from a friend of my mom!

She and her husband were gonna come, but he got some kind of infection in his eye socket and they had to cancel. I guess his eye was buggin' out, man, all weepy with pus and junk.

DC: With Yes I Am Wireless, you get a crystal clear connection, every time. Rock solid in the car, high fidelity inside any building, and clear as a bell in the enclosed, acoustically engineered spaces of an auditorium!

JEP: That's right, dude! He had pus coming out of his eye. I kid you not!

(sfx: audience down)

(a bit of echo in) Dude, I dunno what that's like. I guess it hurts. Imagine it.

What? You don't want to imagine it? You don't want to imagine pus coming out of your eye?

(sfx: applause)

Whoah, Dude! Listen! The people are with you!

DC: With a calling plan from Yes I Am Wireless, you can share all your joys and victories, your surprises and your experiences, artistic and otherwise, with family and friends, even if they're far, far away.

(sfx: applause out)

JEP: False alarm, Dude! They were clapping for this guy in a tuxedo! He came right out on to the middle of the stage!

Now he's standing up there with his back to us! Maybe it's stage fright, dude!

DC: Stay in touch and fill all the quiet spaces that surround you with incessant communication through Yes I Am Wirless! You can have a phone and be talking to your friends from anywhere, by the end of the day today!

(music: Beethoven 5th)

JEP: Oh, wow! Can you hear that? They're so loud!

And get this, dude! It's a song my cell phone knows!

Yes, it is!

Duh duh duh dum! I love that one, man! But usually it only takes, like five seconds. This must be the long version.

DC: A world of possibilities opens up to you when you go cellular. All of it comes to you courtesy of Yes I Am Wireless. Sign up for a calling plan today, and share the wonder.

(music: Beethoven's 5th ends)
