Hoedown Closedown

Lets just say that that Hoedown is down, but not out. Read this for a bit of background: Sad Demise of the Beach written by a former DJ. At some point I'll be back, hopefully in the form of a newly created Waiheke Community Radio ... but until we can make this happen I'm probably going to start creating and posting some podcasts. I've started my first one already and hope to have it up by the end of the week. They're going to be called "Son of Country Mike" so keep an eye out here for note of the first one...
