Basking in the success of the last one ... I've decided to put on another ... ;D

Kick-off is this Friday @ 8:00pm GMT.

See you there and start posting those requests !!

Cheers.

Don't take this as a complaint cos I love Yes, but I have been listening to your broadcast at work all morning and considering you are about to embark on 24hrs of Yes I am surprised to hear so much Yes music being played prior to this. Maybe it would have been a good idea to drop Yes from the playlist for say 24hrs so as to give the session more impact.
Just a thought. Keep up the good work ;D

Fair point Silver :-[

The truth of the matter is I have been spending most of this week concentrating on the migration of the website to the new server and haven't paid much attention to the current playlist ...

Under normal circumstances, I would have cut-back on the number of 'Yes' tracks prior to the marathon - as I did before the last one.

The good news is that the migration to the new server has now totally completed and all of the minor 'quirks' have been ironed-out. Everybody should enjoy a much faster page-loading speed and, when I have the time, I am going to be adding the much requested 'what's playing now - what will play next' section to the site. Again, this is now possible because of the new server.

Apologies for the 'Yes Overkill' but I hope you can appreciate, it's been a very busy week !!

Cheers for now.

Hey, I'm perfectly fine with an overkill of yes. They are arguably my favorite band. I loved that interview you put up a bit ago - quite a find! ;D

I came across your broadcast / shoutcast when browsing to make my own. And I must say... this is one I hope to stick with, even if I get my own up and going on a regular basis.

If you have any words of advice for me, I'd be more than happy to listen. (Probably within the realm of another subject in the forum).

Keep up the yes. Keep up the prog!

Cheers

Hi there LonMelJr !!

Thanks for signing up to the forum and welcome !!

I'm glad you've enjoyed the 'Yes Session' !! So far, so good.

Feel free to post any questions regarding Internet Radio Streaming. I would suggest starting a thread under 'Tech Talk'.

I'm still listening, and still enjoying. Wonderful interviews. Even though I've bought almost everything, I always love hearing what other people think is good. Plus, I'm considering buying that Chris Squire album... it's catchy!

It seems everything's working now for my own shoutcast, so no direct questions necessary to post over tech talk. Of course, a pointer or two wouldn't hurt... ;)

Thanks for the Yes session. What of it I was able to listen to I really enjoyed. Especially liked the interviews. Nice touch to break up the music. Any thoughts on who will be given the honour of the next session?

Hey Silver,

As usual, I'm open to suggestions. However, it will have to depend on the amount of material that I have for any particular group / artist. Bearing this in mind, how about either 'Pink Floyd' or 'Genesis' ??

Genesis would be hugely appreciated! ;D

Out of the two, Genesis would suit me too ;D

Post by silver on 20^th Dec, 2004 at 7:44pm

Agreed, Genesis would get my vote too. Including solo projects there would be a huge amount of material to choose from.
Bring it on! ;D

How about a session of some kind on Christmas Day or Boxing Day?

I may even call round for a beer! :D
