Won't Let You Down - Kimo Watanabe and Grant Beardsley
Kimo Watanabe from Salt Lake City with Grant Beardsley from the county to the north of Suffolk (you guessed,) it's called Norfolk. I'm hoping to get Grant onto the show in the near future so watch out for a real treat there.
I suppose I could always cross the border and do a show from Norfolk but what could we call it? Norfolk n Chance? Suggestions please!
Kimo's music is now for sale on the Podsafe Music Network http://music.podshow.com - just search under Kimo and you'll be straight there.
PC Podcast
Contact from Pete Cogle of PC podcast after we played the same tune Galetasary on our shows on the same day - whole string of co-incidences same initials, started a day apart (OK, he got in first), a love of diverse musical styles, he's into just about anything, from the latest indie rock, through electronic, jazz, folk, and bhangra.
Big difference is that he admits that he's a 16 year old music freak trapped inside a 45 year old's body. I'm still in denial. Find PC Podcast at http://pcpodcast.blogsome.com/
A fix of amazing beats, counter-beats, syncopation and rim shots from the hugely talented George Hrab from Pensylvania.

Geo says, "It's a sort of a weekly cafe concert featuring... me. I'll play tunes in the studio, talk about stuff,have guests, do weird covers, try some call-ins, answer questions...you know, all the things I usually do at a Geologic gig, but over the AIR. Sweet!"

Wailers - Manny's Music Store NYC - after flying in, the first task was to get some back-line gear sorted out.
It was the time of BIG speaker stacks all for instruments except drums. I decided to go for a compact backline to pump through a decent PA and mix it from the front. Of course, at that time we played small gigs so we didn't need huge PA and often the venue had its own PA (of variable quality) so I just schlepped the backline, drums, piano and guitars.
Worked well especially as it was mostly just me and a hired Econoline van. The band personnel at that time were looked after on tour by Benji Foot, who was also based in West London.
Amazing that we didn't loose stuff whilst moving gear in and out of venues. Mike Batlin from Springsteen's New Jersey crew came out on a few gigs which was excellent. A thoroughly good egg but definitely a Springsteen crew member despite a posting on Backstreets.com which claims he was working for Marley at the time. Another post claims that the lineup included Marley and Peter Tosh. I have to tell you that the Barrett brothers (Aston and Carly) were in the band, as was Earl "Wire" Lindo on keyboards and Joe Higgs (replacing Bunny Livingston for the US tour).
More about the tour on a future Suffolk n Cool. I really don't want to sound like an old fart living in the past which I fear I may well. Whether you'd like to hear more or you'd prefer me to shut up - please let me know suffolkandcool@gmail.com or an audio comment via the MyChingo button on the shownotes page.
Great that there is a new wave of great talent emerging in the new world of digital recording and distribution. Linda Coogan from Dublin is a prime example.
Where I belong - Linda Coogan
Linda met Eoin in school, formed a band, later came Darren. Gelling really well together, it was obvious they were the guys she wanted for her album. Together a year. Linda is a solo artist with band available at call. Her repotoire can be acoustic or jazzed up.
Upcoming gigs at:
30 July - The Sunday Roast Sessions, Thoma Reids - 8:00pm
