Aural Moon Shows

[Rick and Roll]

Hi, I'll just chime in so I can a) receive the emails as the posts accrue, and b) throw some ideas down because I have some personal crap to attend to this weekend.

I've no idea of where this will go, but I'm good with whatever happens. The only consideration of whether you want three hours or two for my show is if it's not too much of an intrusion. It takes me about the same amount of time to construct a show of varying lengths.

Most other stations of this type are heavy on the shows, and the themes. My original basis of the show (laid down in my first RS post) guaranteed different themes and genres, and that will not change. I find locking into one genre limiting.

Other shows that have specific themes are always welcome. there was a space music hour that was good but got shelved due to time.

The DRH is an interesting idea. Methem - I actually like most of the same prog rock as most others. It's just that I'd rather play something new or something different.

Is Interzone and Prog Shores a current entity? I never see them around on a regular basis.

The new show idea is a MUST.

In summary, for my show, whatever opinions are always welcome, and I'm sure Jim will contact me with any decisions that result. I enjoy the time slot, the length, etc but am always amenable to new ideas. I really do want to take more time off but there's always so much to play!

Rick,

Thanks for commenting. I wasn't aware about Interzone and Prog Shores... if they are not around then - I withdraw my comments.

I do like your show... and - more importantly - I agree with you about different music... exposure to other artists, genres, etc have be really good for me as well. I am a die hard ELP fan, who was recently introduced to YES and Rick Wakeman because of Aural Moon... I had never heard of Spock's Bear and Neal Morse, until I started listening to this station... I love Neal Morse's stuff... again, because of Aural Moon.

I was reacting to Jim's comment about having to get rid of shows - to make room.

Keep exposing us to new stuff and working on the themes!

As I mentioned... I do appreciate what you are doing - the knowledge you share with us and effort you are putting into the show. THANK YOU!!!!

You ROCK!

Back to your regularly scheduled...

From Texas,
Ted
