    • Special Links of Interest
     

  • Mama's Pride Home Page   great band from St Louis--played all over Tampa and toured with the Outlaws --check out the last pic on their "photos" page...love that marquis!

    •  
  • WLOF Channel 95 Tribute Page  Site by Dick Camnitz (aka Dick Shane, Dick Shannon) who was a dj at WLOF in Orlando back in the old Orlando Youth Center Outlaws days...

    •  
  • Bird's Bands Player's List   Site by Bob Cara of Casselberry with a running list of people who played in the joints of the Orlando area during the 70's and '80's--some of those folks go way back to the '60s --saw a few familiar names on the list...interesting reading!

    •  
  • Live365.com  Internet radio--offers four "Southern Rock" stations...be sure to check out "43 THE HAWK" out of Charlotte NC...I've listened to them all and this one plays a lot of "not always played" stuff, including cuts off Hughie Thomasson's "So Low" and includes some bands you don't always think of when the label "Southern Rock" comes up (like the Black Crowes but the music fits)

    •  
  • WORJ-FM Orlando Tribute Page (defunct radio station)--note on their list of "Friends" who made things possible at the station are included "The Outlaws", Joe Lambusta and Charlie Brusco and "The Back Door" (there are photos of the Outlaws at this club elsewhere on my website)

    •  
  • Gainesville (FL) Bands Family Tree   Interesting site showing who played in what Gainesville based bands over the years.  Some of it's a little "off" because the bulk of the info is fan submitted (like POWER being listed as a Gainesville band--it's a long walk from Winter Haven/Lakeland to Gainesville)  but it's interesting reading...just the list of names of the bands will give you a laugh...

    Triplearadio.com (The Forest)   This is actually a radio industry site for AAA (Adult Album Alternative) radio stations, predominately Public Broadcasting Non Commercial stations.  The Forest is their "editorial" and commentary section and the guy who writes this stuff is an old Orlando   A self described "post millennial pop culture theorist", his commentary on the broadcasting industry and the government is sometimes biting and other times satirically funny.
     



    Thanks
