WOW! My first internet radio show on TRM Radio is now history! What a kick to be broadcasting on a network originating in England - The Land Of My Dreams! Sadly, if you missed it, TRM at this time does not repeat broadcasts, so you'll just have to tune in to Toby Chicago's Musical Potpourri every Saturday (or Sunday, for those Living In The Future)! Check the days and times for all of my internet radio shows on the first page of this website. Now it's Sunday and I am already working on the playlists for the upcoming shows on both Q-Star and TRM Radio. Each show averages two to three days apiece of my gathering the music, placing it in the right order so that it "flows correctly," adding the promos and sweeps, and making sure that my listeners get the very best show possible. Your input is always welcome - My shows are for YOU! Thanks for listening!
Well, I have a new ASUS laptop that seems to be doing a better job at broadcasting my internet radio shows than my former laptop, but I'll keep the former one as a back-up if needed. The BIG news is, in addition to my show on Q-Star, I will be broadcasting a new show every Saturday on TRM Radio out of Manchester, England starting this Saturday, February 23rd! The times are 2 PM Pacific, 3 PM Mountain, 4 PM Central, 5 PM Eastern, 10 PM London, and 12 Midnight (Sunday AM) in Johannesburg! This newest show will have a broader format - basically anything that tickles my fancy, from 30's Swing to 40's Big Band and Jazz to 50's Rock and Roll to 60's British Invasion to who knows what?!?! Indie Artists for sure on both shows - That's a given! Feel free to contact me here (use the form on the next page) and let me know what you'd like to hear and on which show (or both) - and if you like the shows. You, The Listener, help me to do my best and that's exactly what I want to do for you! Thanks, and Stay Tuned! www.qstarradio.com and www.trmradio.co.uk are where you can find me!
WELCOME to Toby Chicago's Blog! I hope to be erudite, witty, concerned, and truthful.
February 8, 2013 This has been a year of ups and downs so far - and it's only early February! The Ups are of course getting on the internet as a DJ (Thank you Jorie and Mario of The PondHawks!), having healthy kitties in the house, and certainly not last and not least knowing that my Intentional Family of good, true friends is always with me whether they live nearby or are literally thousands of miles away. There is a roof over our heads, food on the table, clothes on my back, and plenty of love to go around. The downs are some health concerns of mine - which are being addressed and taken care of - and knowing that there are still homeless and hungry people and pets living in this great country of ours. I volunteer to help them as much as I possibly can and hope that my listeners will also think of those less fortunate and reach out to them to give them a hand up, not a hand out. No matter how terribly things are going, please note that there is always someone, somewhere, who is worse off than you. We are all on this planet to help one another. . . |
