First of all, delve into LONG BEACH!
Long Beach is the most
diverse city in the nation, from the mini mansions on the beach to the fashionable jewelry shops and tasty cafes of Cambodia
Town. (Did you read about my tour in 2004?) It would be SO COOL if the LBC could become the prime example of a community
of All Nations living together cohesively,
yes?
THE PRIME SPOT dot COM started out as a newsletter all about Long Beach, CA via AOL. It
contained a paragraph from Justin Rudd back then, who was catapulted on the web when Marc Posch created his awesome website!
On 9/9/99 at 9am Jerry Lee Hudson (creator of Tinderbox -
local live music + mural painting years later) uploaded the very first webpage featuring an artist I supported by sponsoring
his demo: LELDON The major record labels CAME TO LONG BEACH to sign him, MCA won out ;)
ThePrimesRadio Show began @ LBCC (Long Beach City College) in
2000. The goal was to drop off my collection of CD's to play because I thought airplay could extend the exposure.
Students were NOT interest in playing someone else's collection so I "had to do it." (And HATED being solo
in the old station/dungeon with NOone - they all wore headphones on campus! Out of frustration, I moved to CSULB.edu's
KBEACH.org because they were online. When I was invited by MikeStark.net to join Cerritos.edu in Norwalk,
I took him up on it 2 years later WHILE airing on both kbeach.org AND Long Beach Community Television (update: www.LBCTMC.com)
In 2000 I asked Kelly Quinn at the Long Beach Public Library about starting a LOCAL MUSIC COLLECTION
and Kelly made it happen! This is where my extra promo CD's were donated. (I currently have over 500 local LB
musician's CD's in ThePrimeSpot Private Music Collection).
