Here are some details about the site at the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batanga.com">Wikipedia</a>. That's right -- Batanga is bigger than AOL Latino and Univsion.com! <br /><br />I've been a Mana fan for about three years now. So of course I'm really excited and telling all my friends I'm covering the show tomorrow night for Batanga. Well, my white friends have no idea what I'm talking about. All I can come up with to explain the power of Mana is that this band is like the Mexican equivalent of U2. There's just nothing like Mana's sound! <br /><br /><div style="width:150px; height:150px; background-image:url(http://widgets.batanga.com/stations/en/iluvbatanga.widget?uid=09082007202459629149); overflow:hidden"><a target="_blank" href=http://myradio.batanga.com/Player/player.aspx?PlaylistID=63839&promo=100003 style="display:block; height:125px; padding-left:150px; overflow:hidden">Batanga Pop Radio</a><a target="_blank" href=http://www.batanga.com style="display:block; float:left; padding-top:25px; width:75px; overflow:hidden">Batanga.com</a><a target="_blank" href=http://widgets.batanga.com/default.aspx?id=3 style="display:block; float:left; padding-top:25px; width:75px; overflow:hidden">Batanga Widgets - Share Me</a></div><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Get the full experience with some YouTube videos: </span><br /><br />I don't know the artist joining them in this song though.

This really feeds my need. <br /><br />Unfortunately I won't be watching the VMAs as they happen. It's OK; we all know that MTV will replay them over and over for two weeks straight. Instead of watching the debacle live on cable, I'll be at the Mana concert here in Phoenix.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6697424619500428501-4568895370933977506?l=themusicstalker.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Heather Larsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09762042836183414904noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6697424619500428501.post-18986163967333660812007-09-02T13:18:00.000-07:002007-09-02T13:24:48.643-07:00As I launch this blog plus the website Themusicstalker.com, you're probably wondering why I'm calling it that and what it's all about. Basically, I want to cover music I like the way I want. In other words, I am choosing to work independently for myself. <br /><br />I have been stalking a Phoenix rapper called Grime all summer and finally got to interview him yesterday for my podcast at <a href="http://www.melodytrip.com/Community/blogs/melodytrips_first_podcast/archive/2007/09/02/melody-trip-s-22nd-podcast-interview-with-phoenix-rapper-grime-getting-ready-for-the-virgin-festival-and-the-world-s-first-carbon-neutral-album.aspx">Melodytrip.com</a>. <br /><br />As I was e-mailing him for probably the 200th time to track him down, I realized I <i>am</i> a music stalker. I stalk artists, news, blogs, iTunes, Soundpedia.com, radio stations, online radio, MySpace, podshow, Virb, music festivals and more searching for music to quench my musical appetite. And I love ALL kinds of music...save for Michael Buble. <br /><br />I'm a music fan to the point of being a stalker. Sure I get away with it as I've been in radio for ten years now and stalking gossip and news about any and every artist is, well, sort of my job. Normal people don't do what I do...do they? If you do, you're welcome here at The Music Stalker blog and the soon-to-be-online website. <br /><br />Check back for updates. It's going to be a place I can post whatever I want, whatever is on my mind, podcasts, blogs, articles, interviews, etc.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6697424619500428501-1898616396733366081?l=themusicstalker.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Heather Larsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09762042836183414904noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6697424619500428501.post-74989059751950051872007-08-28T14:55:00.000-07:002007-08-28T14:56:28.839-07:00Right now I'm stalking Small World of DTP, Grime, music festivals, Brother Ali, Ledisi (whose new album is out today), Madi B, and Mana.
