Toastcasting

I finally got around to having a good play around with Audacity last night, in preparation for when I get around to lashing a proper podcast together, if only to stop Dan pestering me about it (actually, mostly to see if I can come up with something interesting). It's ridiculously easy to use, and definitely a lot easier than I thought it would be. I was able to throw together twenty minutes of a decent mix with dialogue and tracks in about 45 minutes. I reckon a half-hour show would be just about right, which means only about 5 tracks per show, with some banter and stuff in between. I'm trying to get Andy on board to be the co-host, as I reckon just me talking and playing tracks would be interminably boring. I may be wrong, but I don't think so. Babs will also almost definitely make a guest appearance or three (I haven't mentioned it to her though, and how do you make an 'appearance' if no-one can see you anyway?!).

Audacity-logo.jpgAnyhoo. I probably won't get a chance to actually do the recording bit for quite a while (at least a couple of weeks), so in the meantime, I'm putting some stuff down on paper. If anyone has any requests for tracks (that aren't something everyone's heard before) then let me know at the address at the bottom of the page. I've got quite a few ideas already, but I'm totally open to suggestions. If I have more than enough for two or three shows before I make the first show, well, there might even be a second show. But we'll see how the first one goes first.

Crunchy Nut Cornflakes on standby.

And I meant to ask... who was the Irish band we saw outside the hotel again? I really liked them, if you have any...

That would have been Eoin Dillon of Kila. There's a small snippet of every Kila song off every one of their albums on their website. Which is nice.
