As usual, please check the dates page of the website for any updates, changes, additions, cancellations, phone numbers, addresses, and the up-to-the-minute social status of Gary, the Paddy O’s bartender. Not only does he make the best post-show strawberry daiquiri, but he has inspired the comments “Why can’t all bartenders be this cute?!” and “You didn’t tell me Gary was so hot!”

(For the record, I’ve always said that Gary was that hot…)


RADIO CAMPAIGN (including XM Satellite Radio):

A small radio campaign is underway which has resulted in over 40 new radio station adds in the last month or so. One of note, XM Satellite Radio’s XM Café (Channel 45) has had both “Carnival Days” and “Lying and Stealing” in steady rotation. If you have XM radio, and listen to it (hello Corinna, John T…), please take a second and email in a request for one of these songs. Here’s the link:

XM Café-channel 45 (“Carnival Days” and “Lying and Stealing”)
http://www.xmradio.com/programming/channel_page.jsp?ch=45#

The full list of stations is too long to insert here, but I will include a partial list at the end of this mailer, broken down by region, for whoever wants to check it out.

If you’d like to make a request, it would be greatly appreciated. I would ask only that you do so if you actually will listen or already listen to that station (either on radio or streaming it online). Program directors and DJ’s can spot a fake request easily, and that doesn’t help the cause. So check out the end of this mailer and please make a request if you can, and if you plan on listening.

*If you’d rather not make a request, no problem. I can quit the whole music thing and move back into my parents’ basement. It really wouldn’t be that bad. I mean, I could probably stay out as late as I want, as long as I check in by 11. And my mom even has my room the way I left it, with the Star Wars sheets on the bed, the Paula Abdul “Spellbound” poster on the wall, and the set of Choose Your Own Adventure books (complete set through 1989) in the bookshelf. Here it is in simple terms:

Your request = Phil not in his parents’ basement, becomes a rich and famous rock star, is forever indebted to you and to thank you, annually takes you to Vegas (in his private jet called the Riverside Plane) to party with him, Puff Daddy and Michael Jordan.

No request = Phil moves back into his parents’ basement and legally changes his name to Cliff Claven.


LONGTOWN PODCAST FEATURE:

Everyone's favorite podcasting uncle, UncleShag, has done an entire show dedicated to our music, with an extensive interview. Check it out on the link below and support UncleShag and his Longtown Podcast! It’s a great daily podshow that will introduce you to some excellent stuff!

THE BEST OF THE GREAT AMERICAN MUSIC HOUR VOL. 3 SAMPLER CD:

I was thrilled to find out that “Carnival Days” was selected for The Best of the Great American Music Hour vol. 3 sampler CD from Lost Cat Records. This is a fantastic sampler that is available on iTunes so check for it there!


ENGAGE INTERNET RADIO:

Speaking of “Carnival Days,” Evolving Artist Media has chosen that song to be featured on its ENGAGE Internet Radio station, which also features songs by Shawn Mullins, Carbon Leaf, Edwin McCain and Starsailor, and others. The number of spins the song gets is determined by votes so please check the site out and put in a vote or two for “Carnival Days.” It’s extremely easy to do, just a scroll and a click. Check out the link below. So vote early and….ah, I forget the next part….

THANKS TO JACK:

I want to take a second to thank Jack, our sound guy, for the excellent work that he does. Jack’s not leaving us, but it was pointed out to me that I have never actually publicly thanked him, so I would like to do that now. “Thanks Jack.”

(Editor’s Note: I would like to address the rumor that the individual who pointed this oversight out to me is indeed Jack himself. That fact was never explicitly stated, nor implied. The official response on the record is “no comment.”)


Thanks again to everyone for the continued support. It’s been a great (but fast) summer!
