Sad News

Hey Everyone,
I'm sorry to report that my show on WBT.com has been terminated. I'm really going to miss it. I've been thinking about all the great times I've had, all the awesome guests I've interviewed, and excellent musicians I've jammed with, and emails from you guys about the show- they just brightened my day, and I'm definitely going to miss it.
Who knows what else is going to happen, though, right? I've just sent out my demo CD to a few people, and hopefully something will come of that!
Thanks to all of you who were regular listeners of the show, that means a whole lot to me.

Sorry to hear that Alana. But hopefully one door closing will lead to another door opening
Keep the positive attitude and good things will eventually happen

Thank you very much. Something good will happen- God's in control, and He has always come through for me and given me more than I could ever ask for.
I will keep everybody up-to-date!! |

I'm so sorry. Keep your chin up, you are very talented and I'm sure you will have a good opportunity come your way. I will miss your show. It was a great inspiration and fun. |

Alana,
It all happens for a reason. The last band I was with just split up after nine years out of the blue one day. I was really down about it. But everything happens for a reason. Two short months later I was hired for my first full time job as a musician. So just stay positive and it will all work out.

You guys are all so encouraging. I'm gonna stay positive, cause I know something good is going to happen. Thanks to folks like you it makes it easier to stay up. I'm so happy that you all loved the show, and I'm glad that it made some people happy- that's my goal. |

As the one that was blessed to be Alana's producer it's hard to see this project end. I'll have her final show posted Monday Nov. 9. You will still be able to listen to the older shows for a while.
Although she started this in February the total time of the podcasts is equal to less than 3 weeks of a normal on-air, Monday-Friday talk show. In light of that, Alana's progress was phenomenal. I have no doubt other doors will open.
I'm proud to say I had a part, however small, in this endeavor. |

Producer Mark, I can't tell you how much your helping me to become a talk host has meant to me. What an awesome experience the whole thing was, and I will forever look back on this as one of the coolest opportunities God has ever given me.
Thanks to you, and to WBT for being so supportive of me. I couldn't have asked for more. |

That will be WBTs loss, but as someone already said, its happened for a reason and you will see a great opportunity opening for you, Put me on the list for your CD |
 | WBTBanjoGirl Says: Tuesday, November 10, 2009 @6:04:45 AM
You got it! I'm really praying that my music will take off. Graduation is May 15, and after that I hope to be doing music FULL TIME. |

Wow, sorry to hear about the show cancellation Alana. You are a very bright and talented woman, and something better will emerge. Look forward to hearing what is next for you! Thanks for all your hard work and efforts on the show and with your band! |
