The latest IPRS, show 66, is now ready to download. A lot of new music in this one, and all great!! I discovered a fantastic band called Atto IV, which I hope you like, and I played a couple of old favourites of mine... two epics; one from Porcupine Tree and one from the Keith Emerson Band featuring Marc Bonilla. And speaking of Marc Bonilla, a listener corrected me on my prononciation of his name. It seems I've been prononcing the "ll"s while I should have prononced it "boneeya", so I stand corrected, and thank you Wayne for pointing me in the right direction.
Another thing: I've been really busy listening to music, taking notes, and preparing this radio show, apart from from "real world" job, and I still haven't had time to write down my CD review. I hope to do this during this next week. Thank you for your patience.
In other news: NEARfest has announced yesterday that it has cancelled its 2011 edition! Imputing this cancellation on low ticket sales, the 5 members of the NEARfest organizing comittee have acknowledged that it may be because of the state of the economy in the US. As my friend Peter wrote on Facebook "Where have all the Prog fans gone!" Well, prog fans are workers, tax payers, and are affected by the economy as much as the rest of the population, so I am inclined to believe the NEARfest comittee about this, which is a shame since they had a great line-up for 2011. I sincerely hope that NEARfest will resume operations in time for a 2012 festival.

Classic Rock Society Awards Show
Hi everyone! this week's show concentrated on the CRS Awards, so for the first two hours we had music from the winning bands. Which left the last hour for new music. After having aired on Sismico and UK70s Prog Rock internet radio stations this past week, the show is now available for download (Podcast no longer available). Newswise, the big news this week was that Phil Collins decided to retire from the music business. Originally reported last Saturday, the news was somewhat changed from what I originally read out on the radio show. Phil Collins now says that he wants to spend more time with his family. Of course, the fact that he has to tape his drumsticks to his fingers to be able to play is also a reason. I wish him a great retirement, well deserved, as he was for a long time the hardest working drummer in the music business.
Oh, and by the way, during the show I say that I will get back to you with the title of the next Pendragon album, but I never do, so here it is: the CD will be called Passion, and I reeally am looking forward to it.
The playlist is as follows:
1. For All We Shared, by Mostly Autumn (Go Well Diamond Heart, 2010)
2. Go Well Diamond Heart, by Mostly Autumn (Go Well diamond Heart, 2010)
3. Satellite, by Panic Room (Satellite, 2010)
4. Sandstorm, by Panic Room (Satellite, 2010)
5. Comatose, by Pendragon (Pure, 2008)
6. Change, Part II, by arK (Wild Untamed Imaginings, 2010)
7. Stronger Than Friction, by IQ (Frequency, 2009)
8. XXV, Part I: Twenty-Five Good Honest Men, by Pallas (XXV, 2011)
9. Rainland, by Tiny Fish (Big Red Spark, 2010)
10. Metamorphosis, by Curved Air (Air Cut, 1973)
11. The Battle of Epping Forest, by Genesis (Selling England by the Pound, 1973)
12. Unorthodox Behaviour, by Brand X (Unorthodox Behaviour, 1976)
