Thanks for listening Tony!

GT is on at 11 pm EDT/GMT-4 making it a brutally uncivilized 4 am in GB
and 5 am in western Europe! Someone (I forgot who) told me that there's
a guy who records my shows and puts them on-line (I forget where) so
Europeans can listen on demand. If you find out who and where, please
let me know so I can spread the word. Technically, it's illegal so I
can't do it myself but it would be nice to be able to tell people that
it's being done.
I can recommend:
electro-music radio: http://radio.electro-music.com
Still Stream - your place for solace: http://stillstream.com
This week, Thursday through Saturday, Stillstream will be broadcasting
the third annual City Skies Festival <http://cityskies.com> from Kavarna
coffee house in Decatur, near Atlanta, Georgia, USA. My duo Howard
Moscovitz and I (Twyndyllyngs) will play on Friday at 8 pm EST/GMT-4.
Lots of great music all weekend long! If you're in the neighborhood,
please come to Kavarna. If not, see you on the net.
After returning home, Howard and I will continue with Chez Mosc every
Saturday at 6 pm EDT/GMT-4 on electro-music radio.

Try finding an iParty or similar device.

I have one but it's not quite up to my audio standards. I have the
transmitter connected to my computer with a mini-to-mini cable and a
mini-to-mini barrel connector. The receiver connects to the audio
system in my bedroom. Like you say, put on music (Stillstream or
radio.electro-music) and play it all night long at a low level with the
lamp dimmed.
Cheers,
Bill
