As a podcaster and a webcaster, I have been basically telling my listeners to please visit http://www.savenetradio.org, and get themselves up to speed with what is about to happen in 3 weeks. I use live 365 as my broadcast provider, and any of you that use them in conjunction with your terrestrial radio broadcasts might want to explain to your listeners that the on-line portion of your broadcast will go down on that day. just about all streams will cease. See their website for details. ( http://www.live365.com The major record labels through their enforcement legal arm (The RIAA) continue to claim that we (webcasters) hold no value for them to promote their artists. This is simply the most idiotic of stances to take on this issue. Needless to say, they continue to maintain that position. Fortunately for Podcasters, most of the music that we play is what we call Pod-safe . This simply means that either the recording artist is independent, and has given us permission to use their music in our broadcasts, or the artist has joined the pod-safe music network, over at podshow.com, or some similar music network that supports the creative commons movement for independent licensing structures.

This video is the debut performance of Arvel Bird, (Southern Paiute / Me'tis) and his new band One Nation . It was performed at the Seminole Hard Rock of Hollywood Florida. Arvel Bird was raised in Utah and Arizona where he began his 11 years of classical violin training. He attended Arizona State University on a music scholarship, later transferring to University of Illinois-Champaign/Urbana. There he began to compose and improvise, learning to play bluegrass, Celtic, folk, country and old-time music. Arvel's mix-blood heritage of Southern Paiute and Scottish ancestry is now the inspiration for his own unique style of music. Joining Arvel in late 2006 are the talents of: John LoneEagle, known to his friends as Eagle, is traditional drummer and percussionist for the group One Nation is Chiricahua Apache and Cherokee. Before joining One Nation, Eagle was a popular member of the contemporary Native American music group, Brule. Eagle is a graduate of Baylor University. As a sought-after speaker and presenter, he is a role model to youth, regarding the culture and traditions of Native American people. Eagle currently resides in Tennessee where he owns Native American Legacy, a store selling authentic handcrafted Native American items. He also owns his own line of products at www.loneeagleproducts.com Chris James, is a singer, keyboardist, songwriter, drummer and guitarist in Nashville, TN. Chris has collaborated with Arvel Bird on his two top selling CDs, Animal Totems and Animal Totems 2, and has had songs cut by numerous top recording artists. Chris has performed with a number of entertainers such as Bobby Bare, The Rascals 1988 Reunion Tour, Walter Egan, Al Perkins, the Brooklyn Cowboys, Supe Grande of The Ozark Mountain Daredevils and is mentioned in the biography of Gram Parsons, and performs one of the most memorable impersonations of Jim Morrison ever given. Chris has also performed with the Bill Lloydâs Long Players. Long Players is a play on the vinyl term âLPâ, and the group perform a different classic rock album every show. When not on stage or in the studio, this multi-talented performer is also editor of the most popular music scene magazine in Nashville, called âShakeâ. Vlasis, who hails from the city of Minneapolis, started his musical career in 1979 when he wrote and recorded his first original songs. The son of Greek immigrants, Vlasis is an accomplished musician, his guitar work is electric even when unplugged. Winding out on his Mossman is special to him as well as playing keyboards but Vlasis admits that drumming out is still his favorite pastime. Vlasis has performed in front of thousands of fans all over the country as a solo act as well as the lead guitarist for the art-rock group Blue Canoe and the contemporary Native American band, Brule. Vlasis loves the energy of a live audience and that joy is very evident when you watch him perform. Vlasis has also enjoyed interacting on a smaller stage as a special guest at several Omaha schools, jamming with and inspiring children in special needs classrooms and also for elementary and high school kids. Vlasis is currently putting the finishing touches on his second solo CD entitled White Dog as a follow up to his debut work Plain Sight . The next chapter in his career should prove to be his best as the lead guitarist for the powerful group One Nation while expanding his career as a solo artist.
