The Road Ahead...

So no, I didn’t really quit The Limelight Hour team. Much like the fabled faked death of Elvis, I did it partially to get attention for the program (my work as a top secret government agent can not be discussed here), and as an (apparently) failed gag. No disrespect to The King, of course - may he rest in the soulful soil of Memphis. I would not simply leave the family that is The Limelight Hour, as I love every one of them far too much. But that’s enough warmth & fuzziness for one day!

I am, however, quite taken aback by the responses I have received from this little media stunt! Emails and messages of surprise and of life lessons on winners and quitting abound! It was nice to know that there is a listening public out there who cares. This is a personal thank you for listening from me, and also from the team that work so hard to make Melbourne’s independent music accessible to you.

In fact, The Limelight Hour team is far from quitting, with many dreams and schemes yet in the works. Whilst we continue to bring you both The Limelight acoustic showcase series, and The Limelight Hour, there are several ideas currently at inception that I am personally very excited about!

However, not wanting to spill the beans prematurely, I thought I’d throw it out there to you guys instead…! Tell us, either by commenting on this post, or by emailing thelimelighthour@gmail.com what you guys would like to see us take on next? Is it a TV show or web cast? A magazine? More and different types of events? Or something completely left of field? Let us know!
