I'm trying to put together a podcast
of listener memories and stories about John Peel. The podcast will be a mixture
of listener memories and new independent music which John would be championing
if he were still with us. Were you a listener
and fan of his programmes. I am planning the podcast to coincide
with the anniversary of his death toward the end of October. So please send
your contribution by October 21st at the latest. Your assistance in this is greatly
appreciated. If you do not have the ability to record your story and you can
submit a written account please do so and I will consider it for inclusion.

Wed, 21 February 2007 This is a cool idea. To show the awsome power of social media in action
and to send the music biz a big message, a group have got together and
have come up with the idea of getting an idependent music artist to
number one in the ITUNES music charts for one day, 22nd March 2006.
They are asking everyone to purchase this song from ITUNES on this day.
And they have signed up as an affiliate of the iTunes Music Store, and
every commission made on the sale of the chosen song by Black Lab
called "Mine Again" will be donated to college scholarships,
partly because it's a worthy cause, but also partly because college
students are among the most misunderstood and underestimated groups of
people by big media.The date for the combined effort is 22nd March. You can find out more about this at their web site at http://bumrushthecharts.blogspot.com/ Category: general -- posted at: 5:06 PM Comments[4] |
Wed, 21 February 2007 Homegrown has been nominated in the Poetry Podcast category of the Podcast Peer Awards, along with some other great poetry podcasts - Cloudy Day Art, Slam Idol, Little Reds Writing Hood, Indie Feed Performance Poetry, Everyday Muse and Mike McGee. The Awards are chosen and voted for by podcasters.Check out all the other finialists at the Podcast Peer Awards site, the winners will be announced on March 4th. So does this mean I get to dress up and attend a top notch swanky awards dinner type affair?? No, not really, but I am thrilled to be nominated and wish all my fellow podcasters the best of luck.
