SmoothedShredder Posted January 12, 2006 Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 Because of the Hiphop influence, and because JazzFM wouldn't touch our artists with a ten foot pole.... yet. Care? About the company/venture I'm working on... you better believe it... keep it up and I might ask you to pay at the door next time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chameleon Posted January 12, 2006 Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 Hey headz up Skanks...The Chameleon Project is the special guests at the What the Thunder Said Show.We were looking for a chance to team up with these dudes and we'd love to welcome them back to the T-Dot.More to follow....P.s. Smoothedsheddar is right. JazzFM won't touch anyone not in the Toronto Jazz mafia (i.e Faculty formt he local Jazz departments at York, Humber, Mohawk etc..or those they directly endorse) I've been trying to get them to play anything my band does for years. I even went to all those schools. Tough go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
