Tarnation! The sign up requires a valid Canadian postcode. On the one hand fair enough, they're looking for music that chimes with a local audience. On the other hand (as dafttart would say) what NUMPTIES! I'm assuming they stream to the web, and do they really think people only find new music from a local broadcast station?

Mr Bongo, sir: I've not registered with a bogus postcode. I figure that would be counter-productive if a bunch of us did it, but you may want to have a word with them. Music is international. They should be.

Bongo I've tried up, down, backwards, sideways and bloody diagonally. I eventually got to log in to supernova by giving my valid postcode and the name of the next village as mine wasn't on the list only to be told that I couldn't vote because I don't live in Canada.

You know I would vote if I could.

As Smudge says "Music is international. They should be."

Good luck though Bongo and keep it coming please!

Voted and done, Bongo! But that sign up was quite a workout, and I live in Canada. I really admire our UK friends for their efforts. Now that I'm signed in, I'll make it my daily routine to vote.

And Bongo, all this time I never knew you were a fellow Scarberian. I had to read your little blurb to learn that? I should have guessed it from your video in the hydro field. Somehow the act of playing a banjo in a hydro field has a real Scarborough vibe about it.

Keep up the great work. This here Markham&Lawrence posse is cheering you on.

Sorry I didn't know they make it such a hassle. Thanks a lot.

I will have to do something cool to make up for this.

You people are the best.

I love both your new songs and I really hope they're coming out on Amazon or i-tunes soon.

Great to hear that!

I am trying to decide which to put on itunes. I like em too, I dig the sloppy vibe some don't.

All the Time in the World Blues is my fav...Jack White inspired.

I did Jet Blue for ya...whad a ya think what new ones for itunes ?

(Really appreciate you Folks.)

Nutters care more than any of my "friends", music can teach about life I guess.

BIG LUV !

[quote="BongoBoy"]I did Jet Blue for ya...whad a ya think what new ones for itunes ?[/quote]

Bongo I love them both but I'm going to be uncharacteristically (is that a real word? I expect I spelt it wrong) bold and say that I like All the time in the world as much as I like Jet Blue.

So if there has to be a choice then I'm going with that one. (Crap! I sound like a bloody X factor judge!)

Can't we just have them both? ...Please.
