Oh, by the way…the title of this post is a reference to what I will be doing tonight on this anniversary of the Technology and the Arts podcast. I will be at The Stone Pony in Asbury Park, N.J., with my friend Christian Beach to take in a performance by one of our early musical influcences, Todd Rundgren…who released a CD back in 2000 called “One Long Year.”
I would love to get a quick interview with Todd for our podcast, but I don’t think that’s going to happen. However, that would be one cool anniversary gift!
Once again, thank you for reading and listening during this past year. John and I really appreciate it.

UPDATE (12-14-2007) – Because I had actually written this before posting the special “Night with Pandora” podcast, I left out our most recent guests from the honor roll above…so allow me to correct that now…
- John S. James, editor/publisher of “AIDS Treatment News” and computer programmer
- Chris McGrew, videographer for Pandora and drummer for the band Griddle
- Kevin Seal, host of the “Pandora Presents” podcast and vocalist/keyboardist for Griddle.

Congrats to you both on a successful and interesting year of podcasts. I consider it a great honour that you interviewed Evan and I about our little poetry project. Hope the Stone Pony was fun.
Thanks for the well wishes, and thanks especially to Dave and Janie (and Evan) for participating in the content of our year of podcasts. Happy Holidays!
