Here I sit on the front porch, enjoying a beautiful fall day in Montana and all the while playing the music I love.
Does it get any better than this? Maybe.. if our station was more powerful and more people could hear us more clearly.
I can't give you specifics, but I can tell you that we're working on it. Hard.
I'd like to take a moment to say thank you to my son in law Pete Young for filing in for me when Marie the beautiful took a trip to Seattle and Vancouver Island for our 30th anniversary. He did a wonderful job!
The trip was fantastic! Did you know that there's a Radio Cafe in Spokane? Two commercial stations; not the same concept at all - but nice folks. They gave us a tour - as is true with probably all commercial radio stations - they make more that this from porch operation for sure!
I'll be telling you about the trip in the days to come - stay tunned as they say!
Cheers,
Scott

Well,
I'm ashamed to admit it, but I've done no blogging for over a year! Ah well, enough of the past and the associated guilt. I'll just start new!
The past weekend was over the top great! Friday night saw the Montana Radio Cafe music series concert series bring in Mike Dowling. A Grammy award winning guitarist/vocalist/song writer, he packed the house to overflowing at the KM Theater! Great concert is all I have to say.
Thank again to the King and Queen of the KM - Bill and Jana Goodman. They're wonderful people, patron's of art of all kinds, sponsor's of the Montana Radio cafe and owners of one of my favorite places - Red's Wines and Blues.
Saturday morning was Mike Dowling teaching a open tunning and bottle neck guitar workshop at the Noice studio and gallery on main street in Kalispell. What an opportunity! I think about 16 or 17 guitar players took advantage of the chance to learn from the master.
Later that day was the Flathead Blues Society end of the summer party down at Lake Mary Ronan. It ROCKED! Great time and great music for everyone.
The raffle for the Fender Strat was a success too - Gayle - service manager a the local Harley shop won the guitar; thanks to bluesman and superior guitar builder Al Kempton for the Stat.
There, that's the catch up blog. I feel better now, I hope you do too.
By the way, we had a great summer with the Depot Park music series. Thanks so much for all that support music here in the Flathead.
