Bring the Soldiers Home

The cobwebs are thick and the beer has gone stale, but my good friend Jason Jarrett kicked open the doors of the U-Turn Cafe to share some passionate thoughts with all of us.

Listen to The U-Turn Cafe #20

Thank you for listening.

The Cure to a Bad Morning

Horrible start to the morning where I had planned on recording this show. Turned out good that I waited to do it because I needed the chilled out vibe to calm me down! *laugh*

Listen to The U-Turn Cafe #19

If you are interested in the Coke stuff I mentioned check out the Virtual Thirst web site.

And don’t forget to swing by Unwind With Anji Bee for some more laid back relaxing tunes.

Sunny Friday Morning

A beautiful, sunny Friday morning in spring so my mood was perfect to record an episode.

Listen to The U-Turn Cafe #18

I also talked about two Flickr sites on the podcast. Both contain amazing Moleskine drawings and I highly recommend checking them out. They are the pages of Neil Dixon and LBeto.

Currently we don’t have a next show scheduled at the Dirty U-Turn Cafe, but I have a feeling there will be some things happening there real soon.

The Shakes

Today we have something special as UK based The Shakes share an intimate live acoustic set recorded just for The U-Turn Cafe. Thank you again to their management and to the band for doing this. Very cool indeed!

It was a lot of fun to do this and I hope more bands start doing sets like this and sending them in. Don’t forget to buy their new single “I Want a Better Life” that came out today!

Also, you must check out Undwind with Anji Bee. This new podcast sponsored by Tylenol PM is a perfect “sister podcast” to this show and I’m happy to be helping her promote it.

Mark is Still Behind the Grill

My buddy Mark wanted to spend some more time behind the grill here at the U-Turn Cafe so how could I say no?

Here at the U-Turn Cafe we have none other then Pacific Coast Hellway’s Mark Yoshimoto Nemcoff stepping behind the grill with all kinds of great chilled out music from some of his best friends. Happy Holidays!

Funny thing was that on the ride back I was thinking that it was time for another U-Turn Cafe, but I guess some other cool people beat me to it! *grin*

Yes the Cafe is Still Open

Here we are entering the third week of 2006 and finally I get my act together and put out a U-Turn Cafe. I appologize for the delay. Life just does that to you sometimes, but you’ll be hearing from me on a more regular basis this year I hope!
