Oops, we broke it.

By • Mar 20th, 2009

Hi, “Oops, we broke it” isn’t the name of a band, although I will be the first to admit that it would be a good one. No, “Oops, we broke it” is what we did. Our database fell over and it has taken a while to get it all back where it belongs. Business will [...]



Brock Zeman – The Train In Me

By • Mar 16th, 2009

Brock Zeman is another one of those artists that I have no idea how I found him, I am just glad I did. His song “The Train In Me” off his album “$100 DIFFERENCE” is a gem. It sounds like John Mellencamp and Steve Earle should have written it. Brock is another American story teller [...]

It tickled my sense of humour because they’re doing pretty damn well. Four guys from New York, doing the usual “overnight sensation” grind. Playing every gig they can get and it is starting [...]
