<p><span style="font-size: small; color: #ffff00;">Yep! Me and my music buddies -- Paul Sylvain &amp; The Rockin' Road Dogs -- are appearing at the 2nd Annual Nashua Folk Fest at 2 p.m. Sunday, August 31, at Greeley Park, in Nashua, New Hampshire. The park is located on Concord Street, about one mile off Main Street from Library Hill.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small; color: #ffff00;">This is a two-day music festival, starting at 1 p.m. both Saturday and Sunday this weekend. There are 14 total acts, with different performers each day. Our time slot is 2-3 p.m. this Sunday.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small; color: #ffff00;">The event is free (and even the bands are doing this free, although we'll be trying to sell some CD's, of course). Consider that we're not getting paid for our one-hour set, but that I'm flying back from Texas to honor the commitent, and the bass guitarist and blues harp guy are driving 330 miles (5 1/2 hours) down from Maine, and staying at a hotel overnight Saturday just to play a free one-hour show! Pretty incredible bunch of guys. Talk about doing something for love of maiking music with friends.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small; color: #ffff00;">We normally play a handful of gigs around Machias and Eastport, Maine, each year. The guys have never played in my home town, so it's pretty exciting for me.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small; color: #ffff00;">If anyone is in the Mass.-N.H.-western Maine area this weekend, pop on by and catch me and my guys. Heck, stick around and have a picnic with us (they have grills and stuff around the park) and catch a day of great indie music. Hope to see you there.</span></p>

<span style="font-size: small;">I just got done adding some help videos to the site. In your control panel you will see a question mark icon labeled help videos. Once you click on that link, it will take you to the <a href="http://www.mixposure.com/index.php?t=help_videos">Help Videos</a> Area. Right now I have 4 videos up.

I wanted to thank all of the people that went to the chat room for the radio show last night! Wildcherry and I had a lot of fun doing the show but I must admit, I will be happy when Mike comes back lol. It takes a lot of prep time to get the show ready!!<br /><br />Thanks again for supporting Mixposure and the fantastic artists that are here!<br /><br />Dazed

<span style="font-size: small;">I just wanted to let everyone know about some new features we added to Mixposure. You will see on your Artist Page Menu link for Gallery Slideshow. This will show all of your pictures in a popup slideshow as well as several other cool features. I also added a link within the normal photo gallery page at the top. <br /><br />The next phase of Mixposure is more emphasis on Video. I have an example <a href="http://www.mixposure.com/index.php?t=n8_video&amp;channel_id=2">HERE</a> of what the video flash player will look like. So in case you are wondering, flv video format will be the key for us. I am looking at some conversion software much like YouTube uses. <br /><br />Thanks for being a part of Mixposure everyone!!<br /><br />Dazed</span><br />

Well the trainwreck continues! Mike will be back the first week of September so you have to put up with us for awhile .

I will be pulling all of the Same Song Title Madness songs, "I know Trouble" and we will play them tonight. I will be pulling these today from the site by Title so please make sure you do not name it something different.

Hi Everyone.<br /> <br /> Here is the review I just received for my album:<br /> <br /> Tim Carroll<br /> FolkWords<br /> www.folkwords.com<br /> <br /> <br /> 'Words and Music' &ndash; musical observations from Phillip Hartley<br /> <br /> Occasionally you hear an album that rivets you with its simplicity and purity. 'Words and Music' by Sheffield-based singer/songwriter, Phillip Hartley does just that. Apart from writing the songs playing acoustic 6 and 12 string guitars, mandola, mandolin, keyboards and percussion, Phillip also produced the album.<br /> <br /> Sometime lead vocalist/guitarist with Hair of the Dog he's emerged as an accomplished solo performer with 'Words and Music'. And before anyone thinks a self-produced album might be of questionable quality, forget it - he's done a fine job. The recording is crisp, the instruments sound great and Phillip's voice - ranging from anxious and edgy to demanding and questioning - is as clear as can be.<br /> <br /> There are so many fine songs on this album it's hard to select favourites. The opener, 'A Long Way' is a sad, rather introspective song, but a good introduction to Phillip's style. 'A Question of Time' is an outstanding song about changing years and growing older, the lyrics are great and Phillip's vocals are spot on. Personal songs about love can often sound trite and tedious &ndash; if that's your view listen to 'Forever on my Mind' it will change your mind. The mournful tones of 'My Town' lament the closure of British industry with perceptive lyrics it's worth taking time to absorb.<br /> <br /> The title song 'Words and Music' talks about the doubts, trials and tribulations of the itinerant songwriter. 'Just Another Song' is meticulously constructed and the vocal delivery immediately conjures up memories of Ian Anderson (Jethro Tull) and there's no negative connotation attached to that view. On the contrary, it's a positive comparison, Ian Anderson writes insightful songs that reflect his personal analysis of the world - and so does Phillip Hartley. The album closes with a little touch of humour in the song 'Shy' &ndash; but I won't give away the joke, you'll have to listen.<br /> <br /> If you enjoy unadorned albums with one man singing about his observations on life, delivering a range of mellow, sometimes slightly pensive, contemplative songs then this is an album for you.<br /><br />Album soon out on CD Baby.
