The M.A.P. LISTENER SUPPORTED PICK IV - Time for a 3-Way!

"Time for a 3-Way!?!"

You bet it is!

It's time for the MIKE ANDERSON PROJECT LISTENER SUPPORTED PICK IV - BATTLE OF THE INSTRUMENTALS and YOU decide who gets heard!

"What?"

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

You can find the LISTENER SUPPORTED PICK IV survey on the M.A.P. profile right now!

Let's recap:

Prior to each new episode of the podcast on the M.A.P. myspace profile, you will find a simple survey. With that simple survey, 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 4th podcast, will it be:

1. FRACTAL PATTERN - Airlines Provide Sharp Objects

or

2. THE JAMES T. KIRKS - Robot Death March

or

3. Veil Maker - Exhaustive Tribute to the Machinery of War

Take a couple of minutes to check each band out on MySpace, listen to the songs and then please VOTE! Spread the word (tell the bands you voted for 'em) and listen for the next podcast to see who the winner is.

The MIKE ANDERSON PROJECT LISTENER SUPPORTED PICK III - The Search for a Highway Hit!

No, it's NOT the Search for Spock, it's The MIKE ANDERSON PROJECT LISTENER SUPPORTED PICK III - The Search for a Highway Hit and YOU decide who gets heard!

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

You can find the LISTENER SUPPORTED PICK III survey on the M.A.P. profile right now!

Every band ventures outside the borders of it's own scene and city to tour and play across the country. For members of Edmonton's music scene, some of these trips are down the Yellowhead or the QE2 or even Death's Highway - the dreaded 63 north to the land of the oil sands - Fort McMurray!

Of course, the highway runs two ways and these bands come to our fine city to play and then become honorary members of our scene.

So, this week they get a shot at landing on the M.A.P. with the LISTENER SUPPORTED PICK III!

Let's recap:

Prior to each new episode of the podcast on the M.A.P. myspace profile, you will find a simple survey. With that simple survey, 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 third podcast, will it be:

1. STURGIS TRASH - Beer Cans

or

2. JUNIOR PANTHERZ - Jammer

or

3. STAREWELL - Blurrier

or

4. ABANDIN ALL HOPE - You Want It

Take a couple of minutes to check each band out on myspace and then 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!
