We're all going on a erm..summer holiday!

Well OK, not exactly summer but a certainly a holiday. I'm writing this at work (quickly looking round in case the boss is about) as I slowly wind down at my last day at work for two weeks. Tomorrow I fly from London's Heathrow Airport to the "Windy City",Chicago. My laptop is coming with me so I can keep this blog habit going, keep an eye on emails but also to be able to listen in and catch at a more reasonable time, taking account of time zones, one of the best alternative internet radio stations, Wholewheat Radio. Netcasting from a shack in Talkeetna, Alaska, you won't hear Britney or Top 40. What you will hear is an eclectic mix of "Americana",folk, blues and music with the obvious Alaskan leaning. I found out about the station from my good friend Victoria, manager of Three Blind Mice over a year ago. I've not really listened to conventional "terrestrial" since. For my humble endevours I run two Live365 stations, one playing independent music and one playing blues. Jim and Esther however show how webcasting should be done.

If all goes to plan the next stop will be the Cass hotel in Downtown Chicago.
