Dan Shafer - Leaving Virginia


Never heard of him.  I like the song.  Has a Paul Rodgers' blues-i-ness to his voice.

I'm SO glad you noticed!

He's the first official add to the station from MySpace. I've talked with him via email a couple times and he was willing to give us this mp3 when I told him how much I liked it!

We're planning on finding more and more good new music through MySpace as we can.

PLEASE, if you like the artist support him by requesting it once in awhile. He doesn't have a CD available right now, but for the unknown artists the HOME PAGE and BUY buttons will be active on the playlist.

Of course I noticed!  I will put him on my request list.  I don't have a Myspace account, otherwise I would drop him a note.  Nice to see more of the "little guys" being added. 


Thanks, Riggs!

I liked that song too.  I noticed him while it was playing.  I too do not have a Myspace account but, if someone drops him a note, tell him I liked him also!

EXCELLENT!

I can't tell you how excited I am about the opportunity to discover some of this new music from MySpace. It really is a strong reminder of how limiting regular radio is.

She found and installed the background and got us some friends to get started. The rest is all me. Well, she told me where to go to find the slide show too, but I created it.

She was a big help though, so I'll give her some props.
