songs2play, one of the things we had when Mudcat radio was on once per week, was chat at the same time. So, it became a habit for a lot of us to meet at that specific time, just as we've done for the virtual song sessions on Paltalk.

So...one of the things you might try, is posting a thread with a specific, pre-planned time to chat and see how many takers you get. Do you have chat ability away from work? If so, your evening and late night would probably get a few takers from your side of the pond and here in the US. That seems to have worked well for the song sessions, esp. on the weekends.

Thanks,
