About Me |
|
Come sit and watch with me under a beautiful Marula tree in South Africa: africam.com Leopards are primarily solitary creatures. Only seen when they want to be. FRIENDS, PLEASE TRY TO REFRAIN FROM POSTING HUGE ADS IN THE COMMENTS SECTION... my eyesight is not THAT bad. No problem if it's a smaller version of information that you may want to share. I spend several hours every week programming and posting listings on Baystaterock.com. Please feel free to send your listings to me via e-mail at baystaterocklistings@yahoo.com. Thanks. PLEASE SEND ALL RADIO/BAND CORRESPONDENCE, announcements and show listings to: baystaterocklistings@yahoo.com instead of here. I spend more time working out of that e-mail address, than here. In fact, I DON'T work out of here at all. Please DO NOT send work related stuff here, I may miss it. If you need more information with regard to music related questions, please refer to the instructions at the bottom of the cover page at baystaterock.com. Fair? Thank you. Carmelita's local music program 'Bay State Rock' airs every Sunday night from 10:00 PM to midnight on 107.3, now 97.7 WAAF. or listen here: WAAF LIVE STREAM ******************************************* Music, books, movies, animals, Nkorho Pan Stream Watering Hole in South Africa, the zoo (for lack of anything better in my immediate vicinity), photography, travel, maps, good food, anything music and art are a few of my favorite things. Solitude. Social time spent in the company of close friends. I work at a local university full-time during the week and spend a huge part of my remaining time listening to, and programming local music for WAAF in Boston. My show is called 'Bay State Rock' and it airs on Sunday nights from 10:00 PM to midnight. It has been my labor of love for most of my adult life. I also have a program website baystaterock.com. The website includes pretty much everything from instructions for the bands, an updated weekly playlist page, upcoming show listings, venues, photo page, some of my own personal history, and a chat board. I am blind as a bat. I was that skinny girl with the oversized glasses who sat next to you in second grade. Glasses are a necessity for me unless I choose to see the world around me in soft focus. On rough days the glasses come off. If I should not have glasses on and ever pass you by at a show or on the street without a friendly nod, I didn't see you. Try standing about two feet next to me.I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4 |

My Interests |
|
| Radio - I have programmed local music in Boston for longer than even I can remember in an effort to expose independent music that may otherwise remain hopelessly obscure. Well, it still may, but at least a few fortunate ears will be all the more graced.
Music Photography Nature and wildlife Film - with little time to indulge in seeing much these days. ..aries are my favorite. I Would love to produce and direct a documentary or two someday. Perhaps in my next life. Maybe this one. |
