<p>Tomorrow is the day!!!! Two of my songs will be on WWOZ radio tomorrow afternoon!</p><p>I'm sending the two song files to the DJ tonight and he said that he will play them on his show tomorrow afternoon.</p><p>The radio show is from 2:00-4:00 PM every Wednesday and is called "Blues and R&amp;B: Sittin' at the Crossroads with Big D". You can listen to the show live on the website.</p><p>Here is address to the website... <a href="http://www.wwoz.org/">http://www.wwoz.org/</a></p><p>On the WWOZ home page you can see a player that will allow you to listen to the live broadcasts.</p><p>Hopefully some of you will be able to check out the show online thru the website. They do not archive the broadcasts yet, so there's no way to listen to the show later if you don't catch it live. I have checked out the playlist of some of his previous shows and he plays some big name blues artists, so my songs could be in very good company on the show. I don't know if this could be a big push for my music or not...all I know is that a door has been opened for me and I'm walking thru it.</p><p>I'll be taking tomorrow afternoon off from work to be home and listen to the whole show and may even call in to thank the DJ after my songs are played. Who knows...maybe he'll put me on the air?</p><p>I am still very humbled and honored to have the opportunity for my music to reach a whole new audience. I just hope that people will like the songs. Who knows what can or will happen after the songs are on the air?</p><p>Thanks again to all of you who support me with my music...</p>

The DJ's will begin uploading their shows over the next few weeks so we should have a good amount of shows and interviews available. Shortly we will get these added to iTunes PodCast so you can grab them from there also. Big Kudos to Joseph Rodriguez for suggesting this!</span></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><span style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva; font-size: small;">Just wanted to let everyone know we updated the video players yesterday. I have not fully tested the embed functions for social networking sites but I will say Facebook will be ready in a few days I hope. Right now when you add it to Facebook it will just post a link back to the site for your video. Once Facebook approves our application, the video will embed on the page like YouTube does. That is the hope anyway lol.&nbsp;</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva; font-size: small;">I am also testing the new review module for Products. I like it! Hopefully we can get it ready this week.&nbsp;</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva; font-size: small;">Have a great day everyone!!</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva; font-size: small;">Dazed</span></p>

<p><span style="font-size: small;">I just wanted to let everyone know we added a new page on Mixposure that should make it easier for some members wanting to use other players for MixStream Radio. From the menu links under Mix Radio &gt; Listen Now &gt; Mix Music Players or you can just click <a href="http://www.mixposure.com/?t=mixstream_radio">here</a>,&nbsp;we have embedded most of the players used today. The Winamp link may also open up in iTunes depending on your settings. If a player does not work for you, you may need to download missing plug-ins. I have tested on Windows 7 and Mac platforms for all browsers and they all work! </span></p><p><span style="font-size: small;">Thanks for being here everyone!</span></p><p><span style="font-size: small;">Dazed</span></p>

Music education can create a passion and focus in children resulting in more successful, well- rounded adults. For some, it inspires a lifelong hobby or even a career path that would otherwise go untapped. For these, and many other reasons, we&rsquo;re proud to help maintain the future of Maryland&rsquo;s music programs.&rdquo;</p> <p>About the Musicians: The Pat McGee Band is one of the most successful touring bands nationwide, bringing original melodic rock, trademark rich harmonies, heartfelt lyrics, strong musicianship and energy to shows that are flat-out fun.

<p>Farrell Jackson - Lead vox, backing vox, rhythm and lead guitar.</p><p>Steve Zakel - Rhythm Guitar, backing vox.</p><p>Dave Mercer - Bass, backing vox.</p><p>Kurt Huhn - Drums</p><p>This is a song we (The JMZ Band) recorded live a few years ago. I was looking and listening to some old song files and stumbled upon it. I thought it sounded pretty decent so I decided to load up all the tracks, remix it, and make use of today's technology to enhance the sound further. Since I had it in the studio I decided to add some more backing vox to it also. It brings back some good memories for me. I hope you enjoy it also!</p><p>Farrell Jackson</p><p>I also have the HF License for this. HF#<a>1119753738</a></p>

<p>It looks like two of my songs are going to be on WWOZ radio in New Orleans very soon, possibly this Wednesday. A person who is a fan of my music page on Facebook turns out to be a DJ on the radio station and wants to play a couple of my songs on his&nbsp;show.&nbsp;The show is on Wednesdays from 2:00-4:00 in the afternoon. They don't archive their&nbsp;broadcasts, so I'll have to do my best to listen to the whole thing from work which will be tough, but I'm sure going to try.&nbsp;</p><p>More details coming as soon as I get them. This could be a VERY cool thing...</p>
