Here we go again, and we are in our new studio. We got some extra office space recently, and for the first time in my life, I have my own office. Much more room to do the show, and everything else I do, so I am happy. I was up till 5am getting all set up for tonights show. Don't forget to call, 1-888-488-9050 or 610-738-9050. Also let me know if ya'll gather for ICQ anywhere.

That's wonderful news, Max! Congratulations, must feel pretty good to have your own Waxing Space!

I am all ears and looking forward to the show. BTW, were any of the other songs i sent you on the tape, usable?

Kat, to tell you the truth, I've been going though all the music sent to me all day, and I've barely made a dent. I have been encoding it all for easy access for the show. Yet another endless task added to my life. I'm kind of enjoying this one. I'll get em all eventually.

Aine, I'll look, but I am not sure. What label?

Kevin McGrath, better known as Mudcatter 'McGrath of Harlow' -- He's mentioned that he has sent a tape to you with some songs -- So, I'm guessing it would have been a 'personal' tape and not one with a label.

Thanks for looking darlin', Áine

It makes too much noise (did you hear that?) and I need to be careful how much I have loaded on my machine while we broadcast.

Does anyone know if anyhting can be done about net congestion? The last several shows I've finally given up becasue of it. Thanks, Max, it's okay, whenever you get to it. luvyaKat

I also keep getting dumped out of it from Real Player, which is a new Version 7 freebie. Do they design them to do that on purpose!

Kat, the net congestion has to do with the phone lines between you and Mudcat. The only people who can do anything are the phone company. I've had horrible problems with other places I've lived.

I'm listening to the show live. It's the least amount of met congestion/buffering problems I've ever had. I'm trying to download ICQ right now too, so hopefully I'll do it right and get in the chat room before it's all over...

Great job Max and Bert!

This is my first time listening to the show, it rules! Hearing the Mudcatters perform is so exciting! Max, it's good to hear your Philadelphia accent--makes me feel right at home to hear others that sound like me! Down here in NC it's all Southern accented people asking me where I'm from because I say things "weird." (Sigh) Now if I could only get some of my own music recorded...

max,

surely someone has asked this question before, but i wasn't paying attention. can i send you recordings via e-mail attachment? pre-encoded for your convenience? or would you really rather have a hard copy?

You can send it any way that is imaginable. Carrier Pidgeon even. max@mudcat.org The Mudcat Cafe, 5 W. Gay St. Suite A, West Chester, PA 19380. I forget the lattitude and longitude right now... Please send music. I need it like a drug.

We ended the show around 8:25pm EST or so. I ran out of hard drive space and the archive was being created, and file got kind of screwed up. I am trying to save it now, so it may be available in an hour or so. I think we lost the video of it, but the first 15min (so far) of the audio seems fine. I'm crossing my fingers. Jees, so many things to consider when doing this show.

Take it easy, Max. Whatever you can get is fine, ya know? We still luvya no matter what.

Jeri, thanks for the info, now I will yell at the phone company, although everyday when I go out I watch the progress of the digital cable which is getting laid up our way, then look out!

Dear Max and Bert,

Great show as usual guys! Now, let's work on the decor -- I suggest a fake fica tree, a couple of framed prints, a keg in the corner, a 'Mudkitten' serving drinks in a French maid's outfit, and maybe some funny hats . . . what d'ya think?

Seriously (ha!), you do realize that the last Mudcat Radio broadcast of the century is coming up??? Any special plans for this one -- like maybe a full TWO HOUR broadcast??

I saved all the audio, but lost the video which is OK. Wasn't much to see anyway right Aine? It may be a little quirky, but I listened to the entire thing and it seemed OK.

I'm not falling for this fake millenium hype. Last show of 1999? We'll think of something...

The video portion seems mostly uses arses and shirt buttons as ornaments so I'm glad you saved the audio portion.

All the best,
