BlowUpRadio.com & Jersey Beat presents 
Folk You! @ the Goldhawk Tuesday July 26th





Message From Lazlo




Hey Everyone,

First up, let me mention the newest update to BlowUpRadio.com

When you check out the Album of the Week page, you will automatically be able to stream one song off of the album right there on the site. This week the album is Chaos Theory's "return to the smokey basement".

Drop me a line at Lazlo@BlowUpRadio.com, and let me know if you like or dislike this new feature.


Of course, just beacause you can hear one song on the website doesn't mean you shouldn't listen to the webcast.

Which brings me to the other thing I want to talk about this week...


Wow, when I decided to start the new show BlowUpRadio.com Classics last week I could not have forseen what a spike that would cause in my listenership. You have spoken volumes by raising BlowUpRadio.com's listenership numbers. I guess you guys like hearing classic Jersey bands as much as I do.

Rest assured I have more "special" Jersey music realted shows on the way. Including the return of a show that was once popular on our webcast. More on that in the near future.


But since I brought up our listener numbers, I thought you might find it interesting to note that while many of our listeners are from the United States, and a lot of them are from the tri-state area, BlowUpRadio.com actually has quite the foreign listenership too. Why in the last month alone we have had multiple listeners in Thailand , Australia, Philippines, India, Malaysia, Italy, Singapore, Canada, Japan, Indonesia, People's Republic of China, Hong Kong, Colombia, Germany, New Zealand, Kuwait and even Vietnam. So New Jersey rock is "Blowing Up" all over the world!


By the way, I am aware some of you are having some problems with the webcast; problems getting onto the webcast, cuts out during songs, etc.; these are all problems that our webcast's host, Live 365 are, I'm told, working to resolve. If you do have a problem with the webcast, please let the people at Live 365 know and let me know. If the problems persist and causes too many problems for too many listeners I may have to seek a new webcast host. but don't worry, these problems will not force me to shut down BlowUpRadio.com. I have way too much fun doing this, and I know how many of you enjoy what I do.

Peace,
Lazlo
