What a finale of So You Think You Can Dance!...This is my first season watching it and I did enjoy it greatly.
Congrats to the winner, Joshua...I was a Twitch guy personally and even voted the last few weeks. But Joshua is an incredible talent...totally untrained, yet he did the 'structured dances' so well.
I can't really talk about this stuff, but you know who can?!?!?!?!?!
That's right...head over to TRAVIS' and get the educated rundown of the finale...

So, recently I was contacted by a PR firm that represents a ton of musical artists. These are not arena type artists, but people and bands trying to make it on the circuit.
Just about everyday I get an email with a new artist featured. I then go and listen to their music and see what they are all about. We will be booking a couple of these people for the Radio Happy Hour in the coming months, but I thought I would give you, my wonderful guests, the opportunity to perhaps find a new favorite or two. I have found some artists that I really enjoy. Some not so much.
Today I am going to introduce you to some of these artists, even those that don't make me get my groove-thing on, because your musical tastes might just be different than mine.
Figured this was good for a Friday so all y'all have the weekend to come back and explore these artists...and give you a chance to rate them. Let's be fair and honest now...
Also, let me know if you like this feature and I will continue to share.
ENJOY...
NEAL FOX....
Neal is from Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. Take one shot of David Bowie, a shot of Billy Joel, a splash of John Lennon, pour into the glass and stir with one ice cube and you can imagine what you will get listening to Neal Fox.
This is "Is Anybody Home" which is strongly influenced by Bowie, but there are times when it sounds like John has added vocals. It is a tad eerie to be honest...

"A Cold Day Is Coming" let's you hear the Billy Joel/Bruce Springsteen influence. I do like his lyrics on this one...
"What The Hell Were You Thinking?" A little Marc Bolen/Warren Zevon/Joe Walsh vibe on this one...
THE STATES...
Frontman Chris Snyder, bassist Previn Warren and drummer Joe Stroll are from New York City. They list their influences as U2, The Mars Volta, Radiohead, The Dismemberment Plan and Muse.
Their website can be found HERE and their myspace is HERE (there is more music there). They only had one song available for preview. It is called "The Architect" Not something that rocked my boat. I didn't hate it, so I guess I would say I needed to hear more...
