I’m going to be in New York this weekend, and while I’ll be spending my nights here, I’ve got some free afternoons. So if you’re in the area, come join me for a beer!

WHAT: Dave’s Lounge Listeners Meetup
WHERE: Brooklyn Brewery, Brooklyn, NY
WHEN: Sunday, October 2, 2011, 1:30 PM

To make myself easy to spot, I’ll be wearing my bright orange Carolina Railhawks shirt with associated scarf. Figure there shouldn’t be too many of those in Brooklyn. I plan to take the 2:00 PM tour of the brewery while I’m here, so come and join me for that as well. Beyond that, this will be a pretty informal gathering. It’ll be good to sit and chat with some of the show’s listeners, something I don’t get to do very often.

If you’d like to RSVP on Facebook, here’s the event listing.

Hope to see you there!

Those of you who own the Dave’s Lounge app for iPhone and Android might have noticed that it hasn’t been getting updated properly for the last couple of months.

After being alerted to this by a listener today, I spoke to Rob Walch at Wizzard Media, and we figured out what the problem was. There’s an extra step required to get the app updated. I wasn’t aware of that extra step before. I am now. All the latest episodes should now be available to app owners, and hopefully, this will put an end to the delays.

Also, the way Dave’s Lounge and Liberated Syndication are set up right now may hold a few benefits for app owners in the near future. Further bulletins will be released on Twitter and Facebook as events warrant…

I’ve been meaning to get these photos posted here for a while, and here they are — just some of the many cool people I hung out with at the New Media Expo in Las Vegas last week. (Click on each image for a larger image.)

Hanging out with Roxanne and Shane (a/k/a Secret Cameraman) from Beachwalks with Rox.

Here’s a larger photo of me and Anji Bee from The Chillcast and Lovespirals.

…and with Elsie from Elsie’s Yoga Kula.

This was taken at the Revision3 party with Charles Stepczyk, the new chief at Insomnia Radio.

Revision3 was well represented, with podcasting rockstar Veronica Belmont from Tekzilla…

…and Sarah Lane from PopSiren.

I even got to meet John C. Dvorak! (Ha ha.)

Ariel Publicity‘s own Ariel Hyatt.

As great as Las Vegas was, it was the people that made going to the New Media Expo so much fun. I hope I get the chance to do this again soon.

It seems my recent upgrade to WordPress 2.5 has completely erased my RSS feed in Feedburner. I am looking into this issue and hope to have it fixed very soon. In the meantime, if you would like to download back episodes of Dave’s Lounge, go here.

UPDATE: I think the Feedburner RSS feed is fixed now, and all the missing files should get repopulated in iTunes before the day is over. Hopefully.

I will be attending the New Media Expo in Las Vegas, Nevada, on August 14-16. If you live in Las Vegas, or if you’re a podcaster who is attending this event, and you’d like to meet up at some point during this weekend, send me an email, and we’ll figure it all out.

This will be my first trip ever to the city of Las Vegas, so if you have any advice or any recommendations for things I absolutely must see or do while I’m there, feel free to post a comment here. Thanks.

Folks,

The laptop audio went haywire again last night. I am once again in the process of reinstalling Windows and other software. (I’ve gotten pretty good at it, too.) I should have things straightened out here by the end of the week, by which time Dave’s Lounge will resume its normal schedule.

I almost put another old episode in the feed here tonight, but I didn’t want to do that so soon after the last one. You can download past episodes here.

Just a quick note to let everyone know that I’ve gotten sidetracked from sifting through music submissons for this year’s shows, but I do intend to get past all these distractions and start producing new podcasts very soon.

In the meantime, I hope all of you out there have enjoyed both parts of episode #100. I’ll be back soon with #101. Stay subscribed!

I have no particular reason not to put out a podcast this week, save that I don’t feel I’m in the right mindset to do a show tonight. I’d rather not explain why. I’ll try to have something for you all next week. In the meantime, I hope all of you are enjoying the Dive Index special from last week and at least considering getting their CD.

I resisted joining Facebook for a very long time, just out of general social networking fatigue. However, I suspect a lot of you out there are on Facebook, so I thought it would be nice if I could see your faces.

To that end, I’ve created a group called Dave’s Lounge Listeners, where fans of the show can congregate and talk about music, podcasting, methods for relaxation, or any other topics they feel like discussing. Feel free to join the group and spread the word about the show. Thanks.

Earlier this week, a couple of people purchased “By Candlelight,” the theme song/background music for Dave’s Lounge, and neither of them were able to download the song. Clearly, something has gone wrong with the Payloadz system I had been using.

So I’ve decided to offer “By Candlelight” and a couple of other songs I wrote a few years ago on Amie Street, a new social network for music that prices songs by their popularity. These songs will be free to download in the beginning, but as they grow in popularity, so will their price.

If you like these songs, I’d appreciate it if you would download them and give them some recommendations to others. Also, if you know of any bands on Amie Street that I should check out, feel free to point me in their direction. Thanks.
