Show #5-Recap.....

Hi,

Thanks to everyone for their support yesterday. We did not get to hear much from Scott bc he was running around playing IT dude. We have been trying to record our shows over the last few weeks and guess what....we did it! Well Scott did it. I can't take any credit except for the part where I handed him a paper clip to eject the cd out of the tray.

We drove home and listened to the show. Very cool. It is hard to listen to yourself however I am very excited to have an archive of the work we are doing.

Ok we played songs from the upcoming Midtown Dickens cd "Oh Yell!". This cd will be in stores on May 15th. You can order it online at www.307knoxrecords.com. It will also be available in the future for download on many sites including iTunes, eMusic and Rhapsody.

We chatted a bit about laptops below are some links:

We chatted a bit about some folks worrying that bloggers(everyday users) might not respect copyright or larger media firms and don't present 'true' news. However, everyday users were named as the person of the year in 2006 Time magazine's issue because of the mass amount of contributions made to media, etc. Person of the the year was "you".
