I'm glad you guys liked it, i just noticed this thread today which mentioned the show as some people followed the link to the podcast. I also love Black 47, some great stuff, i have the kids CD, well from itunes so not really a CD, and will be loading it on the new iPod nano my daughter will be getting for xmas.

Hope you all enjoy the podcast...

Cheers,
Aaron

Something interesting for you all. There is not a podcast radio station in San Fran, my show was broadcast yesterday (show 18) 6 times throughout the day, I've uploaded more, so hopefully it will be getting the word out more.

Cheers,
Aaron

QUOTE (Macfive @ 15-May-2005, 05:43 PM)
Thanks for stopping by again Aaron!

Yes, the content that Celtic Radio plays is a mix of independent and label. We can do this because of the fees we pay to our provider.

Podcasting really does not fit well with the model we have decided to build our site upon. We would have to get licensed again (duplicate) just to podcast the songs we play.

Perhaps there are someways we can work together. Drop me an email when you get a chance! thumbsup.gif

Thanks, I'd love to be coming in more, and I will try to...I really am just deluged with things at the moment...If someone wants to send me $50k i'd be glad to take the year off and just work on this stuff smile.gif But since the odds are pretty small on that one I'll just keep slugging through things as I can.

Hey, since u can play label stuff, that I cant, how about adding some spirit of the west to your playlist? smile.gif I can't play much due to legal concerns.

Sadly even if u wanted to fork out the $ for licensing there isnt any way that you can as of yet, but I will be watching that as well, it would open up my playlists quite a lot.

There definately are ways to work together, and I will be getting to you on that in the near future, I am working on organising some of them. My most immediate priority right now is finding a good way to organise my information that I have right now.

Thanks,
Aaron

Hey all, i noticed by the links coming in that I was being mentioned here again, sorry I don't get back as much as I would like. This is Aaron Drake by the way, I run the Celtic Music News Podcast.

On the legality of music on podcasts, there is only one way to play music on podcasts, that is if the artist owns it completely, and if they give permission. There is no way to obtain licensing for it in a traditional or webcast sense. The RIAA has stated that podcasts are not covered by anything yet.

Every artist on my show is approached individually, it used to be by me, but now James Douglas of the band Callanish has pretty much taken that over from me. There are a LOT of things going on behind the scenes right now that I am trying to get organised.

Actually contacting you guys who run this site is on my list of things to do, and I thought I would have to be doing a lot of explaining but since you guys are getting the concept I think we will need to have a talk sooner rather than later. Contact me at [email protected], I will be available most of monday and tuesday for talking, leave me a # if u want me to give u a call.

Actually, anyone here interested in particapating, please emaill me as well, see below for more.

Replying to Dfilpus:
Soundseeing tours can be great, I did attempt one a couple of weeks ago, and here is a lesson, do NOT take your 2.5 year old daughter with you smile.gif As anyone who listened to the show heard she tends to babble, so I didnt get much of the soundseeing bit done...Adam does get some good ones but Father Roderick does rule at this.

The interviews, I have more to come, lots more....but while i did the first one using skype, skype became problematic, I will be getting some hardware to handle this in the near future, but its been a couple of tight months on the finances, maybe I will just say the hell with it and do some more with skype.

Listener Contributed Content. This is a biggie...a very biggie I think, and I really want to get this going more. Or maybe less of a "listener" contributed and more of a having a dozen or 2 people in different areas to go to shows, interview people, do reviews, etc. This is one I am working on, and want more people for this. I have one person in Calgary who will be doing this soon.

and to your other post...on we can use more....ok if more is what u want smile.gif Seriously....I want to do more....but let me say that the amount of work to put this together is staggering....you have to contact every single artist, and a lot of times thats not enough, u also have to talk to their manager in cases, or their PR guy/girl, and email them lots of details, then follow up, wait for a response, not get one, follow up again, be told to talk to the manager, have him forward u back the the band, etc...then assuming that they do own all the rights to the music, and u dont happen to own a copy, wait for the CD to get here as well. It is not always that bad to be sure, sometimes its, Sounds fantastic, where can we send music?

There is a big problem as well, Marc Gunn and I discussed this a couple of weeks ago, that most of the rock type bands do get it and understand that this is a good way to promote themselves, but the more traditional an artist is the more likely it is that they wont "get it".

Ok, It is way past my bedtime, and I hope i havent bored you, I will make sure to check in again, probably tomorrow, but maybe on monday, like is said, you guys who run this site, please contact me, and anyone who wants to participate also contact me as well. If you have ideas let me know them.

Cheers,
Aaron

Hey all,
This is Aaron Drake from the Celtic Music News site. Thanks for the kind words.
If anyone is wondering my old computer died which is why there was no podcast this last week, the new computer arrived yesterday, so I'm getting back up to speed.

Just an FYI on artists. Deep Blue Sea isnt one, but there are a bunch of others as well, and the list is growing....

I will be having more special shows as well. If the planning works out I may be able to announce one soon, and it will be BIG and VERY VERY cool.

A couple things to ask you all...
If anyone is an artist and would like their music played, let me know.
If anyone has any requests for artists let me know as well, the first requested artist will be played on the next show.
If anyone has any ideas for the show let me know.
And if anyone wants to help or participate also let me know

I am working out a lot of ideas to expand at the moment.

Thanks all, I hope to hear from you,
Aaron
