Show #2 -- 10-11-08 -- I'm still here...

Well hello there listeners,

I completed my second show this morning.... wooooo hoooooooo! There were a lot of random goodies from local acts this show. I'm very pleased with all the talented musicians I have been finding here in Orange County. If you know of any bands that are local please let me know and I will try to play them next week.

This week's show I celebrated the Japanese Motors' new self-titled album. It came out last week so I played songs from the album throughtout the show. Also, this show I played old and new tracks by Venus Infers and found out that Trisha (previous lead singer of Venus Infers) has gone solo. Her new name is HoneyPie and her new music is quite great.

Thanks for listening you guys! Please email me if you want to talk music or if you have any comments: ashleyeliot@yahoo.com.

For homework, go to a local venue and check out the sights and sounds of your awesome Orange County musicians. They're working hard to get their music out into the world so the least you can do is listen. ; )

My playlist is below. Feel free to listen again to past shows on

Press Pass Music is officially on the air!

Hey Orange County music lovers,

The Press Pass Music show airs on KUCI 88.9 FM this Saturday, Oct. 4, from 5 a.m. to 7 a.m. I know it's super early but I just became DJ and I have to pay my dues. I'm so happy to have this opportunity to feature local independent music.

Press Pass Music will focus on Orange County musicians, the actual music biz and what the heck is going on in our community. We have so much talent here and they deserve recognition. The Press Pass blog is dedicated to music news, interviews and upcoming shows.

I'm way nervous for Saturday because I really don't want to mess up and break something. Gosh, technology. Otherwise, I'm stoked. Check out the show and if you miss it because you passed out early ( lame!) or you're too drunk to turn on the radio, then no worries I will be uploading the shows onto itunes.

Let me know your thoughts on our local music scene and if you're a musician, send me your music!

You can email at ashleyeliot@yahoo.com or add me on the myspace: myspace.com/presspassmusic

Me love you long time,
