Hi there all you list members. Since I, the host of "Bear's Den", live
out in Olympia, WA without access to OKOM's vast library. I'd be happy
to feature your new CDs or old cassettes on "Bear's Den". Just send
them to:
BEAR'S DEN
c/o Bruce
Whitehouse
6820 5th Way
SE
Olympia, WA
98503-1426
I'll be pleased to send you a copy of whatever edition of "Bear's Den"
that your group is featured on. Just enclose your address and any
pertinent information that would help me with the featured group. I've
just finished one show featuring the "Hume Street Preservation Jazz
Band # 405" now just referred to as "Hume Street", they are from
Aderdeen, WA environs.
Here are the groups that will be playing at the Greater Olympia
Dixieland Jazz Society dances which are on the second Sunday of the
month at the Olympia Elk's Club on 4th Avenue near "Ralph's Thriftway"
running from September through June, 1:30 PM to 5:00 PM.
Sept. 9 "No Inhibitions"
Oct.
14 "Uptown Lowdown"
Nov.
11 "Electric Park"
Dec.

I'll start checking my mail with more interest next
week..............."Bear"

To Don & All,
As the system is now set up, all Radio OKOM programs are in a queue which
runs, and then repeats. Each week, we add two to four new programs into the
mix. This results in the cycle being little longer, each time around.
These days, we have about a month's worth of programming. During that time,
most of the shows are old ones. The newest being about a month old. The
older ones are years old.
Thanks to the creation of this OKOM Trad Jazz e-Mail Discussion Group (go to
www.okom.com for info), bands can now post announcements about gigs,
recordings etc.). We have stopped announcing events on Radio OKOM since the
Group is up to date. However, our older programs still carry those stale
announcements.
Please understand that this thing is still a work in progress and we are
earnestly attempting to improve it.
Waiting in the wings, is the Radio OKOM programming computer which will
allow us to run certain programs at certain times and days. We're working
on the prodigious task of scheduling the programs and we're desperately
attempting to squeeze in the time to take care of the computer programming
of same.
As for records not being heard for years, that just ain't so. When we get
new recordings, we usually play them within a week or so. True, it may take
a month before they're first heard, but it will not take years. Whether or
not the people who send the recordings happen to be listening when it's
first played, is another story.
Again, we're really workin' hard here at OKOM and we're not about to quit.
Thank you everyone, for your kind words, and thank you Don, for your
understanding of what we're doing here.
By the way, I too, would love to get Radio OKOM in my car. Wouldn't that
be nice.
McN

The only problem with sending CD's to Radio OKOM is that we probably
won't hear them for a year or so. Given their available resources and
personnel, the material (that is comments and discussions) generally are
those recorded in 2002-2005. With the music they play, this is
irrelevant unless they mention a specific event, concert or gig which
may have taken place several years ago. They apparently don't have the
time or people (all volunteer) to do all the technical things needed to
prepare more contemporary broadcast material. It's sometimes
frustrating when you hear something discussed that you could contribute
more information or would like to comment on, then realize the
discussion took place two or more years ago. Otherwise it's a great
resource, and I listen almost every day. I wish I could figure out how
to get it in my car. I guess I could if I had a fancy cell
phone/portable computer set up. Maybe an iPhone would do it.
