Happy to FINALLY be getting to do a show again tonight:

Quote
When Prog and Power Unite (www.wpapu.com) will be taking over the airwaves on progrock.com on Wednesday, May 17th, from 5-8pm CDT/6-9pm EDT/10pm-1am UTC. And this time it's definite! No work getting in the way, this show WILL happen!
This week we'll be featuring the soon to be released third album from MindMaze, Resolve! We'll also be debuting a great crop of new bands for the program including Cobalt Blue, The Black Light, and Elysium Theory.
We're also summing up the always excellent RoSfest experience and will be debuting The Fierce & The Dead, The Aaron Clift Experiment, Evership, as well as playing a few other tracks from participating bands. And hey, how about a new single from Rikard Sjöblom's Gungfly for good measure? I'll also be commenting on recent shows from KYROS, Edge of Reality, The Dear Hunter, and Coheed and Cambria.
I think it's fair to say we have a bit to cover, and after way too much time off we may go long on this one!

If you were a good asset you'd just play the show from your phone and patch it into the house music between/before bands.

Back from the dead, for a week at least.

Quote
Is this thing on?!? So here we are a year after the last episode and it's time to knock some dust off. Next week on Wednesday Sep. 12 we're going to go live once more! Over the past year there have been so many great albums and musical events that I have to take a few hours and get everything on record.

We'll hit heavily on 2018 releases, talk about the June/July live album blitz, hit on this past year's RoSfest and the changes coming next year, talk about ProgStock, ProgPower, and this summer's big trip to Night of the Prog. It's gonna be jam packed!

Exact time TBD, but likely the normal 5-8pm central or, is possible to help European listeners, an earlier 2-5pm central special time slot. I know it's been a long time, but I hope some old friends can make it out to chat!

This first band is Soen very cool swingy jazz fusion kinda stuff.

On Neil Peart's Birthday. Coincidence? Probably.

Way earlier than normal. Guess it depends on traffic.

First off, thank you everyone for the interest in this! I will post something for sure tomorrow or Monday, but I'm thinking the 2-5pm central slot is looking more likely. At this point I can't please everyone, as some in US will still be at work for that slot, and Europe will be mostly asleep for the normal slot, so at this point I'm simply going with the numbers and allowing people the most chances.

I already have a set pretty much picked out, and although it's not officially a 2018 wrap up show, considering I haven't done a show yet this year that's going to have a heavy focus.

That's pretty much how I saw this going down. Might be able to sneak in near the end.

And it's official. :D

Attention all pilots of the solar federation! It's officially official, for the first time in a year we'll be broadcasting this Wednesday between 2-5pm Central time. That means starting at noon on the West coast of the US, 3pm on the East coast, and at 7pm in a place like England.

There is a lot to catch up on, so not sure what the official "feature" will be, but we'll be talking about my trips to RoSfest, Night of the Prog Festival - Loreley Amphitheater, ProgPower USA, and covering all sorts of new music.

Hey folks, one week from today looking to do another show. It's a case of 3-6pm EST preferred, 6-9pm EST backup, and should know Monday which slot is possible.

Feature will likely be Riverside or Phideaux, let me know if you have any preferences.
