Closing out tonight's Virtual Forum is a great song about love by Zach Freidhof. Zach says, "My new record came out Sept 11, and I have attached a video of me playing my single, Geodes for your virtual forum."
It's so fun, enjoy and we hope to see all of you in January!

We are almost done for October, but not first without hearing from our good friend, Cory Webster - who says, "This is a song I wrote many years ago about shipping calves in the Fall. I know it’s not a spooky song but it’s an October song." and that is all we care about Cory!
Enjoy, "They Won't See Their Mother's Anymore"

Well, if it isn't our Satellite Team down in Mexico chiming in with a bit of swampy fun! We love this one and just know you will too!
Deb sent along a note:
"Hi everyone! It got swampy around here over the past few weeks. We decided to get all "Cajun" with something spooky for Halloween. Oh, and in the song, "Méfie-toi" is Cajun for "beware." We hope you enjoy "The Ground Beneath Your Feet." Thanks for listening!"
