The M.O.
Born in Austin, Matthew left soon thereafter and finally made it back after years of paying his penance wandering the earth. Before coming to Austin360, Matthew co-edited Austinist.com, worked as an advertising copywriter and led tours of the Roman Forum, among other things.
When not busy pounding away on his keyboard, he can be found at book readings, concerts, gelaterias, pizza joints, Barton Springs, movie theaters, the golf course, or home with a book. The M.O. gives readers a little insight into the world of this man without a plan.

There ain’t no party like a Bobby Bones anniversary bash cause the BBAB don’t stop. Or so it appears, as, with 46 percent of the vote, the aformentioned KISS-FM-sponsored event won the Your A-List poll for Best Radio-Sponsored Event or Series.
The event, which celebrates the local radio morning personality and his avid listeners has become an annual happening for all of KISS’s devotees, and to beat out such popular happenings as Hot 93’s Meltdown and the family-friendly Blues on the Green, it’s obvious the witty Bones and his morning posse must be doing something right.
Others receiving votes
Hot 93.3 Meltdown 31 percent
KGSR Blues on the Green 7 percent
KGSR Unplugged at the Grove 5 percent
KVET free concert series at Hill’s 3 percent
J.B. and Sandy’s Beach Party 3 percent
101X Homegrown Live 2 percent
101X X-Mas Party 2 percent
Bobaritaville < 1 percent
KGSR Lone Star State of Mind < 1 percent

I wish the Chronicle would get off Bobby’s sack. How is it the most boring morning show in Austin seems to win everything that Chronicle does? I guess when you dedicate your show to begging people to vote for you and beg people to tell you how great you are it pays off in the Chronicle.
