Save The Date: March 1st
While march 1st isn’t any sort of voodoo holiday that I am aware of, there will be two Fancy Pants Gangsters shows returning from the dead on that auspicious day.
The Film Army, gone these past many months, will be returning in a new, monthly format. This new longer prep time will allow us to go much more in depth with our features and interviews and put a level of polish on the show that doing a weekly show wasn’t allowing us to do. The new Film Army will release on the first of every month.
And while I could say something along the lines of everything I already said, I’ll let Courtney do the talking here…
At the risk of sounding cliche, change is good. That’s why over at the Midwest Ska Moment, I’ve been refining, regrouping and retooling your favorite ska podcast. Some things will stay the same (same host, same podcast network, covering the same great genre of music), however, the changes will be vast improvements. I have expanded the scope of the show to cover artists, bands, DJs, and bloggers who have contributed to the overall national ska/reggae/rocksteady music scene, not just the Midwest. The show format will change from me prattling on about bands to me interviewing the bands directly. Since interviews take longer than a usual episode, I have decided to expand the length of the episode from around 10 minutes to about 45 minutes. This is why the show will no longer be called the Midwest Ska Moment. So instead, it is with great pleasure to announce the beginning of the Flyover Ska Show, giving you an in-depth look at the world of ska, reggae, and rocksteady in the US from right here in flyover country.
So there you have it. Mark your calendars for March 1st as Fancy Pants Day (as opposed to No Pants Day, which is nearly every other day here at Pants Command).
