A bit different take this time around as we have a little fun with Rob Miller, executive producer and John Schneider, co-executive producer and star of the television show "Twenty Six Miles".

The show, Twenty Six Miles, stars John Schneider as a corporate executive who leaves a stressful career, moves to an island, and "gets the old band together". (Sounds like an awful lot of Trop Rock artists that we know!)

Spotlight #16: Young Rebel Goombas

jimmypirate@piratedreams.com (JimmyPirate) — Fri, 5 Mar 2010 22:15:00 -0500

Pete's been working overtime!!!

Goombas hail from Long Island, New York. Tropical rockers, their sound is not so easily pigeon-holed. Each member brings a rich and varied musical background to create the luscious Goomba sound.

Richie Saccente plays guitar and shares lead vocals with his cousin Cosmo Mallardi, who also plays bass guitar. Brian “Uncle Bee” Johnson sings backup vocals and shares percussion duties with Randy Knudsen, also on vocals. Kevin McCann plays guitar and sings backup. Special guests on their debut album include Richie Cannata (sax player for Billy Joel, Elton John, The Beach Boys, etc.) and Bob Cassera on trombone.

Filmmaker Jake Gorst first met Saccente as a student in his guitar studio. Over the years they have worked on many projects together. For the Young Rebel Goomba album, Gorst assisted the band in the production of the CD. Pete talks with Richie Saccente about how trop-rock is all about "FAMILY", and why moving Trop-Rock into the main steam radio is important. http://www.youngrebelgoombas.com/

Our friends at Snoloha were recently named the number one “slacker friendly business” in America by MSN.COM and STARTUP NATION. To celebrate this honor, Rod and the gang at Snoloha have created a great new “Trop Rock” apparel design paying tribute to the music we love so much. The best part about it is that for every shirt sold, a donation will be made to The Paradise Charitable Foundation, a national Parrot Head organization that donates to worthwhile causes, like parrot heads displaced by Katrina.
So check out Snoloha.com and see for yourself. Tell them JimmyPirate sent you and help out a great charitable organization too.
