My favourite thing is actually not the podcasts, I rarely listen to them. I am always impressed when I do, but it's always a question of time with me, and I just don't have the free time nowadays... My favourite thing is however, the amount of people that post on here that are NOT from North America. I live in Atlantic Canada, and more specifically a fairly culture-less part of the east coast. So to read the thoughts and opinions of people that are based so far away is awlays of interest to me.
I do have a least favourite thing about this place, but as it is a free service and the good greatly out weighs the bad ( more of a slight greivence really ) I feel it would be looking a gift horse in the mouth to complain.
I've heard that about him, very cool...It would be very interesting to hear his take on your song "How 'Bout I Slap Your Shit"!

I'm not much on reggae but I really dig the trad ska/bluebeat/rocksteady stuff from the early 60s...slowly realizin' I dig most, if not all, music made from the early 60s (i.e. surf, vocal groups, pop, r'n'r, ska,...the list goes on baby)
Check out this gem, from 1951 (boogie woogie with the ska upbeats!):

Let me add my own little "Yeah" for Erik, who has been a true indie music supporter for DECADES. The style posers will always come and go, but the true believers like Erik keep this music alive, against all odds.
Erik, the major economic issues you face are faced by us all -- no one is buying much product, but plenty sure are copying and "sharing it" (it's called stealing in the real world). This is putting so many indie labels and producers out of business, but won't stop anytime soon.
So I hope you will keep the faith and continue to put out great stuff! We have no other choice, lol.
"Telstar " and "Night of The Vampire". Although it's not an instrumental, I love "Johnny, Remember Me".
Yes Night of the Vampire is indeed one of Thee most twisted instro's ...
