As I was giving a last listen to podcast #4 before posting it, I noticed I didn’t quite fade my bed music while A Bit Much is playing. Arrrgghh. That is an unacceptable problem. I can’t fix it until I get home from work so that shit will be posted tomorrow instead of today.
We recorded A Bit Much on Thursday. I finished mixing it Sunday. Let me tell ya, this set by A Bit Much is molten hot stuff. The seem to cover multiple genres of rock in each song. There are many echoes of classic rock’s past, whether it be Brian May’s guitar, Ray Manzarek’s keys, or many others. Now that the music is mixed, I should have the podcast up either tomorrow or Wednesday. Stay tuned bitches!
I was hoping to have a new episode to release this week but I dropped the ball a little bit and didn’t schedule a new band in time. That’s okay though because I’m in deep negotiations with four bands for upcoming shows. By deep negotiations, I mean we’re trying to pick a day when everyone is free. From there we should be able to keep the shows coming pretty regularly. Upcoming guests should include:
A Bit Much,
The Sinbusters,
Ladderlegs,
JDO (that’s right we’re bringing the local hip-hop to the party too)
I take no responsibility if any of these bands fall through but they have all expressed interest. Until the next show comes out, enjoy this video by our first guests ever, the best band in Boston, Streight Angular. These guys are going places, pay attention.
The FDA recently issued a report stating that listening to LADDERLEGS is good for your health. Radical liberals are trying add their new album to the Health Care reform as a last minute amendment. We happen to also be trying to get them on the show. Lets hope it happens soon. This song here, Towards Home, is the #1 single in Boston. The number #2 single is this podcast. I’m not sure how those numbers were determined.
Flash player for podcast three!
Number three is here to stay punks! We stopped by the Friendly Square to record loopmaster Abram Taber. The recording was so good that we decided to play the music before Meg, Colin, and I blab on about bands reuniting. Meg lays the smack down, if you retire, you should stay retired. Meanwhile, we had a chat with Abram at the Tavern At the End Of The World. He gave us a little music history and a ton of bands in the city we should look out for. Al Polk makes a surprise appearance at the end of our conversation. Check it, we are on fiyah! Tell your friends too. We should all experience this together.

Set List: Six, Stay Warm, Beacon, Forget Me Naught
NOTE. We understand, the podcast is long but who said you have to listen to every part of it!
NOTE2. Abram’s stuff gets loud so watch your ears if you’re listening on earphones. Maybe I should have mixed it better. Screw it, just turn down your IPod.

PS EFFING TYPOS!
Here is the flash player for episode two. Enjoy!
And they thought podcast two would never get done. The Freeways are on! They presented us with a paired down version of the band with Karen on guitar and Frank playing the Fender Rhodes. Their music shimmers and the scaled back version of the band really shows off Karen’s voice. You will not be disappointed by their performance. They have a new album coming out soon, so keep an eye out. We’ll let ya know too. Meanwhile, Meg, Colin and I talk about the pros and cons of live shows. Live shows are great, but there are annoying parts of them. There was originally more positive things that we meant to bring up but Colin’s mic decided to bug out so we had to edit a lot of the shit out. Oh well. Enjoy the show!

P.S. Thanks to Frank from The Freeways for helping me mix their recording.
