Collisionville

Collisionville Didn't work out last week, but this week, we stand a much better chance of getting played on Sirius Satellite Radio, Channel 29, 10AM EDT, 7AM PDT. That's Dave Marsh's program, "Kick Out the Jams." Rebroadcast is Wednesday night, 9PM Pacific.

Once more for good measure, that's "Kick Out the Jams," not "Kick Out the Hams."

Collisionville Thanks a million to the faithful who stayed up late last night to see us, we had a BLAST. In other news, if you have Sirius satellite radio, tune in at 10AM Eastern, 7AM Pacific to Dave Marsh's program, "Kick Out the James" -- we might get played! And if we don't, you still get to hear him talk about the Beatles, which should be interesting.

I have a friend in the radio business who would like a demo of your music to play on air. He also wants to pass your name on to some talent agents in the Vail Valley area. Are you interested? His name is Brad Austin, he is a DJ on Radio Free Minturn (Smoke'n with BBQ Brad). Let me know and I will pass on his info.

We received a review from the Owl Mag this week. Here are the nice parts: "...the overwhelming thing that strikes the listener with I Spied a Spider is not any political message, but Collisionville's readiness to be musically inventive.....
