DJV: “Almost 3 years ago I started myspace I found a lot of bands when I heard them that made me go wow I love this music. As I found more and more I dicovered internet radio started listening to it and going in the chat rooms to talk about the music. After a while one DJ asked me if I might be interested in becoming a DJ. I saw this as a great opportunity to help bands that I had made friends with. So I agreed and after 2 years I have helped many bands with my show. I see my show as support for the bands it has and always will be about support of the bands.”
