Experiments in Mass Appeal #43: Indiepalooza

This mostly indie show features a lot of my favorite indie bands that I've played on the show before - a sort of "best of" if you will. I couldn't fit them all in, actually, and the show still ran over. The regular EIMA bands are here and there are a handful of debuts as well including Rupert Lenz, Toxic Smile and new tracks from Dream Theater, Karmakanic and Flaming Row.

Many thanks to my chat guests - Richard de Geest (Ghost), Marco Chiappini (Gandalf's Project), Rupert Lenz, Colin Tench & Gary Derrick (BunChakeze), Adrian Jones (Nine Stones Close) and Sean Filkins.
