Been playing catch-up with the Audities Digest this week when I ran across such nice words from James Deem, John Micek and Marty Rudnick. Gosh guys...I'm blushing. I know that I'm not the only one in radio on this list and appreciate the kudos. Mahalo! Aloha, Michael McCartney KEAO FM / KONI FM / KPMW FM / KTOH FM http://www.TheTimeMachine.fm http://www.myspace.com/thetimemachineradioshow Now Playing: "Thirty-One Today" - Aimee Mann Date: Mon, 14 Apr 2008 14:20:57 -0400 From: To: Subject: New Podcast - James Deem interview by Michael McCartney of The Time Machine Radio Show Michael McCartney of The Time Machine Radio Show in Hawaii called me this past weekend. Not only has he been playing my music on his radio show for the past year (unbeknownst to me) he also asked to do a on-air interview with me. He played a couple of my songs, we talked about my music, Charlotte Pop Fest, and I even hung out in the online chatroom for a little bit. It was a blast! I wish there were more DJs out there like Michael playing music just because it's great music! The great thing is the portion of the show I was on is available as a podcast from the show's Web site at: http://www.thetimemachine.fm I also posted an edited version featuring just my two songs and my interview (so I wouldn't get into any trouble with iTunes). You can subscribe via iTunes: http://www.itunes.com/podcast?id=126288866 Or download/stream the podcast in MP3-format at: http://www.charlottepopfest.com P.S. I couldn't resist keeping the last few seconds of 'So Good to See You' by Cheap Trick as part of the podcast because it sounds so awesome having one of my own songs follow a song by one of my major influences. Oh, and during the interview when I site Cheap Trick as one of my influences I had no idea that Michael had played Cheap Trick before 'The Way She Loves Me.' -- Download my album FREE at: http://www.jamesdeem.com http://www.myspace.com/jamesdeem Charlotte Pop Fest - July 4th & 5th, 2008 http://www.charlottepopfest.com ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 14 Apr 2008 15:22:15 -0400 From: "John L. Micek" To: Subject: Re: New Podcast - James Deem interview by Michael McCartney of The I'll second this. Michael was one of a handful of Auditeers who put his money where his mouth when it came to Milkshake Jones. He played our record "Gala Days," like mad last year, and had me on for a radio interview earlier this year. I have found him unflagging in his support and enthusiasm, and can even trace some record sales to our exposure on the show. Thanks for fighting the good fight, Michael. john micek ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 14 Apr 2008 13:45:01 -0700 (PDT) From: Marty Rudnick To: Subject: Re: New Podcast - James Deem interview by Michael McCartney of The I'll third that...he's even gracious to us bottom feeders.
