Johnny Full-Time replied to Chad Nordhoff's discussion 'IBC Time! Who's Memphis Bound?'

Unfortunately it's not in the cards for me to attend this year's IBC. Although I would love to go cover it in person, I'm going to have to do it from home in 2010. I am, however going to be posting updates on my website, and if anyone would like to…

Looking forward to hopefully playing tracks on WUEV. It will be nice for the folks back in Evansville to hear some new material.

Hello, I host a Blues radio program weekly in Southwestern Indiana, and I had a band of young, extremely talented players on my show three weeks ago; and I believe this would be a fantastic opportunity for them to get some exposure. The Robbie Toe…

Johnny Full-Time replied to Coyote Slim's discussion 'How do you promote when you got no money?'

I think it helps to find other people who are passionate about the music, and about your product; like the folks who use this website. At the risk of tooting my own horn, I bust my ass to show people that Blues music is still viable, and still avai…

Chad, next time you make it to Evansville, I'd love to have you on my show. Been meaning to get over to one of your gigs at Ri-Ra's forever, but it just never works out the way I plan it. - Johnny Full-Time http://www.fulltimeblues.com

Profile Information

About Me:

I started listening to the Blues probably high school. i had been exposed to it off and on from an early age, from a couple of my aunts. They were really into Stevie Ray Vaughan, so that guitar driven Texas Blues was my first taste of madness, and I really dug it.
After that, I started to explore. Where does this artist draw his influence? And so on, tracing the music back, and just getting my hands on anything I could find. I've always been a music addict and collector, so my collection grows continuously each time someone turns me on to another artist or band, as well as when I find one myself.
About the same time I was REALLY getting into the Blues and establishing a catalogue, I was deciding what I wanted to do in college and for the rest of my life. It just so happened that radio was that choice. I received two degrees in Broadcasting/Telecommunications, and always fostered the idea in the back of my brain that a Blues show was what I really wanted to do.
Fast forward several years and several jobs later, and I am working in radio, with an opportunity that arises to do some volunteer work on the side at the University of Evansville radio station, WUEV. WUEV and it's staff are wonderful, and they play Blues every Saturday from Noon-6:00 PM (Seems like a natural fit, huh? I thought so, too.)
On June 7, 2008, Full-Time Blues aired it's first episode. (The same day the 2008 edition of the W.C. Handy Blues & Barbecue Festival got underway in nearby Henderson, KY.) I call it Evansville's best kept secret in radio, but that's not a voluntary moniker. I want the world to know we're here!
You can now listen to "Full-Time Blues" during "A Case of the Blues" on 91.5 WUEV-FM, Evansville. The show airs Saturdays, from 12:00-2:00 in the afternoon, and broadcasts online at wuev.evansville.edu, just click the following link.Listen Online

Full-Time Blues features Blues News, a concert alendar, and artist interviews. We love to hear from the listeners, as well.
I'm glad you stopped by the page, and I want you to know if you're a fan of the Blues, a Blues artist or organization, or someone who wants to learn a little more about this original American genre, I want to help you in any way I can.
Need help spreading the word about your music/performance/event?
Need someone to point you toward some interesting Blues references for information?
Need a recommendation on some great Blues music and artists?
I want to be your source. Shoot me a message and I'll gladly provide you with additional contact information. If you're an artist or band, let's do an interview for the show!
And if you simply want to rap a while about music, and the Blues in particular, that's my favorite pasttime.
"I'd suggest you buy as many Blues albums as you can." - 'Joliet' Jake Blues

The Blues Brothers
Stevie Ray Vaughan
Buddy Guy
BB King
Eric Clapton
The Derek Trucks Band

CD Review - Cyril Neville - "Brand New Blues" - MC Records 2009

For this review and SO Much More, Log On To www.fulltimeblues.com

I admittedly don't have a lot of Neville music, by any of the brothers, in my collection. It's not a conscious omission from my expansive music collection, just one of those things you don't pick up on until you have that light bulb moment telling you to get a hold of an artist's work, or you'll always have that hole. Unfortunately with the Nevilles, that's a big freaking hole. I… Continue

CD Review - Greg Nagy - Walk That Fine Thin Line - Big O Records 2009

For this Review and so much more, LOG ON to http://www.fulltimeblues.com

I have been listening to this CD nearly non-stop since it arrived in my mailbox last week: Mostly because it is an excellent disc; but partly, also, because I was having trouble deciding where to begin with this review.

The album is terrific, and gets off on the right foot with the title track. Greg Nagy and back up vocalists belt out "Until we walk that fine thin line!"… Continue

Update on Johnny Full-Time

Hey all, It's Johnny Full-Time! I just wanted to drop a line and bring everyone up to speed on a LOT of things that have taken place over the last couple of weeks.

First off, I was let go from my day job a little over a week ago. I was working a gig doing radio news, and thought it was pretty secure, but unfortunately, that may have been naive. The company shut down their entire news operation, and went to a local TV station for their news content.
I'm not upset in the slightest bit, and I actu… Continue

At 1:11pm on April 28, 2009, Johnny Full-Time said…: "The Last Showdown Before Summer" - Matt Clark & Carl Rodenberg's Dueling Pianos, 8PM Wed @ State Street Tavern in Newburgh, Indiana. Come out 'cause this is the last chance to see this show for a while!

memories and passions are mixed together creating an intuitive
scenario in a theatrical way.

At 11:45am on September 3, 2008, Rev. Jake O'Connor said…: The Blues Brothers don't get enough credit for the resurgence of the Blues. After that movie, a lot of teenagers began to listen to the Blues (and show up at my gigs). It helped breath life into a diminishing art form. The Blues Brothers band was a superior assemblage of performers, too.
