Thursday, July 2, 2009



Ahoy Krewe!

Just a quick update this week. I've been wanting to send this out, but keep getting a "beat down" by gremlins and rhum jumbies!

First, the news:
1.  Tonight, Tuesday June 30th, at 9:00 pm.....I'll be interviewed on the Big Burrito Radio Show with Mad Marty, aired on Sandbar Radio (www.sandbarradio.com)  Marty and I talk music, venues, cruises, and poker!

2.  CD Update: The bass parts are done, and I'm hoping the disk is in today's mail. Next up--drums!

3.  Early bird rates for the Puerto Los Somewhere Cruise (January 16-21, 2010) have ended, but there are still cabins available. Go to www.peglegharbor.com for all the details. You don't want to miss this cruise! Trop Rock artists who will be entertaining aboard the Carnival Inspiration include Jack Mosley, John Reno, Hugo Duarte, Kelly McGuire, Mike "Crawdaddy" Crawley, John Patti, and yours truly--John Friday!
Along with stops in Grand Cayman and Cozumel (where Jack, Joe Bennett and I rocked the Margaritaville stage last January!), we will be putting on shows every night, as well as impromptu jam sessions. Ask anyone who was in the library last January how cool those are!! You only need to put down a $200 deposit, and you have until October 15th to pay the rest! www.peglegharbor.com

And now, the schedule:
Friday, July 3rd  6:00 pm    Cheeseburger In Paradise in Ft Myers, FL  http://www.cheeseburgerinparadise.com

TropiCast FAQs

What is The TropiCast Radio Network?

TropiCast is a network of audio and video podcasts as well as streaming radio dedicated to promoting the current and future stars of the musical genre known as "Trop Rock". The Network also features the Trop Rock News Wire, an RSS news feed featuring all the news and information we receive from the artists we play, various Parrot Head clubs and other organizations that like us, have taken up the Trop Rock cause. We also now feature a Trop Rock event calendar that features listings for these artists and events. TropiCast can be accessed from these very pages, iTunes and numerous other "podcast" directories.

What is "Trop Rock"?

"Trop Rock" is a genre of music, or collection of genres all tied together by stories of tropical islands, sun soaked beaches, string bikinis and the search for the perfect boat drink. We take what Jimmy Buffett started and run with it.

Do I need an iPod to listen?

NO! The term "podcast" was coined by Adam Curry (you know, the guy from MTV with the big hair.) who actually first experimented with the concept of an entire program enclosed in one big audio file. The TropiCast Podcasts are MP3 files and can be played and listened to on ANY computer, ANY portable digital audio player or burned to a disc and listened to on ANY CD player.
So when we say Enjoy! We mean it.

As a matter of fact, find an episode on the player up above that looks interesting, press play, give it a minute to download and you can listen right here!
