DJ Wave will pop on the chat at 9:00 PM est on Monday's for anyone who wants to listen and chat. If you missed them the first time, here is your chance to catch them again for a limited time!
FYI - Casa of DJ Wave sprung a leak, big leak (in my best donger voice) effecting 3 rooms, the Studio, Bedroom and Living Room...so under construction we go...now here's the good thing the HOA needs to pay for the repairs, so I am under their thumb when it comes to how long this will take. Let's hope it is completed by end of April.
Starting Monday April 4th with an appropriate theme: Home Sweet House!
Additional shows will air on April 11, 18 and 25th!
While the Studio is getting repaired, painted, new carpet and also a new cool desk for the Blue Mic...enjoy great shows from DJ Wave that have not seen the light of day in five years.
