The MIKE ANDERSON PROJECT LISTENER SUPPORTED PICK II - You Decide Who Gets Heard!

The MIKE ANDERSON PROJECT LISTENER SUPPORTED PICK II - You Decide Who Gets Heard!

This is YOUR chance to decide who gets heard on the MIKE ANDERSON PROJECT. That's right, YOU will dictate what I play on the podcast.

Again, I should be completely honest, you get to decide on at least ONE song on the podcast.
Get ready for the LISTENER SUPPORTED PICK II poll!!!


Prior to each new episode of the podcast on the M.A.P. myspace profile, you will find a simple poll. With that simple poll, you will help me pick which group gets the last song slot of the next M.A.P. podcast.

That's right! YOU DECIDE WHO GETS HEARD in the next episode!

For the second podcast, will it be:

1. MY QUIET EARTH - Better World

or

2. The OMEGA THEORY - All These Words

or

3. Uncle Outrage - Xombie

or

4. RED SHAG CARPET - Ground

Please VOTE! Spread the word (tell the bands you voted for 'em) and listen for the next podcast to see who the winner is.

Cheers!

Hey Buddy, Can You Spare a Bassist?

You heard them on the debut episode of the MIKE ANDERSON PROJECT podcast, now you ... can be ... IN THE BAND!

Which band you ask?

SIXGUN!

Sixgun is looking for a new bass player. Do you have what it takes? If you do, or know someone who does, you want to contact Tim today at (780) 481-8705!

Now, what would you be getting yourself into?

Well, Sixgun is finally done editing the new album and then should have it mixed & mastered in three weeks time (well, hopefully.)

Then when that is all said and done, get ready for a wicked Sixgun show with you on stage as a member of the band!

You could become Sixgun's new Robert Trujillo !!!

Coooool.

Oh, and tell Tim I sent ya.

I Need Your Opinion

I need your opinion and I would really appreciate it if you left your thoughts as 'comments' on the http://blog.myspace.com/mikeandersonproject blog with the title "I Need Your Opinion."

Should future episodes of the MIKE ANDERSON PROJECT podcast be themed shows?

What I mean is this:

Would you the listener prefer one genre of music per show (for example, an all metal show, all punk show, all rock-a-billy, all straight-up rock, all pop adult, etc.) or would you prefer multiple genres in each show?

I'd really like your opinion as soon as possible. It may impact the next shows content.

Thanks!


P.S. Bands, I need to hear more of your music! Submit your songs now!

How do you do that? Details: Read our blog titled 'The MIKE ANDERSON PROJECT is NOW LOOKING for YOUR MUSIC SUBMISSIONS' for all the info you need on submitting your music.

Hey Buddy, Can You Help A Guy Out?


Thank you to everyone who has submitted music or given the okay to use their music on the MIKE ANDERSON PROJECT podcast - and a special "Hi!" and "Thanx!" to From The Ground Up - the latest band to submit music for 'airplay.'

The debut podcast was originally suppose to air over a month ago, but unfortunately I have run into delays. None the less, the M.A.P. is coming - some of Edmonton's best will be heard here at home and around the world - very, very soon.

One detail I am ironing out at this time is acquiring a new microphone. The one I want is this:

Samson C01U Studio Condenser Microphone with USB Output - C01U

However, I was hoping to find it for less than the approx. $120.00 I have spotted it for so far.
Now, here is where I am asking for your help.

- Does anyone know where I can get the mic above for a better price than the one listed?
- Can anyone recommend a local Edmonton store that can provide the mic and a cheaper price?
- Are there any sales guys that could give me a price break?
- Or, can anyone recommend another microphone with USB output?

Etc., etc., etc.

I would appreciate any help or opinions that anyone would like to share with me as soon as possible.

Contact me at www.myspace.com/mikeandersonproject or e-mail me at mikeandersonproject@gmail.com. Also, please subscribe to the blog that is updated with more frequency: http://blog.myspace.com/mikeandersonproject

Thanks!
