The Blues You Can Use show, hosted by John Tibbs will not be broadcast today! John has picked up some kind of “bug” during the weekend and was given some medicine and told to “take it easy and get some rest”, so that is what he is going to do. He will be back on Tuesday, February 9th, broadcasting live and taking your requests and dedications. Today (February 8th) is John’s birthday and he was looking forward to spending it with his listeners, but… he got this “unwanted” birthday present!

detour BLUES is currently experiencing technical difficulties. detour MUSIC will replace detour BLUES until the technical issues are sorted out. Sorry about this! Stop back by for additional updates.

I’d like to invite any listeners or artists of the station to join me at the Freebird Forum. The administrators there have been kind enough to set up a forum for the station there, so I’m going to use this area to keep you posted of upcoming events before they even get listed on the station’s website, MySpace, or Soundclick pages. You can even post your messages or questions there and I will try to answer them for you. Looking forward to seeing you there!

Hi everybody…  the station had a few problems during the month of December. One of the problems had to do with the power company. An accident took out the transformer which supplies power to the station and in the process took out the UPS power supply and corrupted a few of the files that manage the station. Those problems are now fixed and complete backups are standing by in case this should ever happen again. Next time it should only be a matter of a few minutes before things will be restored.

New things are being added for the upcoming year. John Tibbs will be back broadcasting his show, “Blues You Can Use” from 1-5pm eastern time, daily. This is a live broadcast and you can make requests and dedications anytime during the show. Check back… more details to come shortly.

Due to power being out, detour BLUES is currently being replaced by detour MUSIC. detour BLUES will be restored as soon as possible. More details as they develop. Happy Holidays! 12/25/09 @ 6:56pm

During the month of December, detour BLUES will be adding a selection of Christmas songs in the blues genre by various blues artists, along with the station’s regular programming. On Christmas Day, the station will provide continuous Christmas songs by various blues artists. Your comments are appreciated! Have a great holiday!
