oOo stayed up till 3 am. in Portugal and called in to thank us and that was more than kind of him. His voice on Everybody Hurts was fantastic. Carla also called in and we appreciate her and her wonderful voice. She is a gem. We will soon be expanding our time. This will allow us to take more time with artists and take more calls on air. We would have liked to have played more of everyone, but time is short. The show will evolve.
From about 6:15 till 7:00 pm Coral and I played through approx 60 Bottles of Beer while playing 99 Bottles of Beer on The Wall in dedication to Uncle D, the 56 minute collaborated version. A long time host returned from parts unknown -- were glad Uncle Denis is back. Uncle D has a Brew of the Week on his show The Cream to the Dregs. Not any ole brew will do. This is top shelf beer. The bottle collection in the studio is getting big. I have promised to not mess with his bottles if he puts me on the mailing list and gives me a schedule. "I want my umpa lumpa now!"

Below are a the artists from our show. We love sharing their art with you .
Formed in 2004 while relaxing on a beach in Mexico, heavily under the influence of Tecate and tequila. Heidi and Erin began writing songs, and Jessica and Sylvia joined the band in the fall of 2005. Blending 60's pop, doo-wop, and beautiful harmonies, they are a fun loving group of four girls from Oakland who play drums, guitar, bass, and keyboards and sing charmingly about being bad.
Christian Raphael spent over 20 years in Corporate America. This came to an abrupt end January 2008. While shocking and a bit “distressful” like many blessings they often come disguised as struggle.
For the past several years, Christian has been writing songs; “Songs That Really Happened”. In other words, looking back on the years gone by for writing material.
Christian says “Hey, if it happened to me then it probably has happened to someone else along the way as well. If I can write a lyric, hook, or chorus, and perform it in earnest so that someone in the audience connects to the meaning, then I’ve done my job for that show”.
“I believe that the world is a pretty small place and that we make it seem really big at times with our perceived differences and disagreements. That’s why I write “Songs That Really Happened”. Note by note, word by word, song by song, the world becomes a little bit smaller, and we all get just a little bit closer”.
For me, music is a pathway to beauty – truth – transformation – joy.
I am continually amazed by the ways music opens the door to profound connections – bridging the gap between individuals, cultures,
past and present, female and male, sorrow and joy, earth and sky,
mind, heart and soul. Creative expression is my medicine.

We will also be hearing some great music from oOo
oOo is a dutch artists who now lives in the north of Portugal. A professional dancer, a provoking dragqueen, an actor (in theater), a choreographer and slightly involved in many other creative artistic projects that found his way. Although musically involved at the moment, o0o likes to call him self a creative human being instead of an artist. His never resting mind is always seeking new stuff and exploring the inspiration he gets from it then expressing it through ways that are available to him. Like doing a radio/tv show on Ustream called Victor's Vault... another medium he discovered and uses. We look forward to playing oOo. You can find his music by clicking here.
Jl is a great musician, Producer of MUGshots & iCweekly.

ShadowofNine has stirred , cooked and brewed some of his musical wizardry, answering the question we subtly posed in our intro “What is Music?” featuring as always all independent music as well as some of his musical soundscaping. Coral and I will be channeling ShadowofNine who will take us on a musical journey, Tuesday, Oct 13th at 7-8pm. It will prove to be a great show don't miss it!! I just came across this wonderful video while cruising through ShadowonfNine's many works. It is a collaborated piece.
