Local Scene Deprogramming is a weekly "podcast" -- an mp3 show -- that features Bay Area bands with upcoming shows at Bay Area clubs.

By downloading and listening to the podcast, you get to find out about notable shows, listen to what the bands sound like, and then decide for yourself. Like most good things in life, it's totally free. We do ask that you check out the web site of our sponsor, Rodent Records.

Each installment of Local Scene Deprogramming covers the three weeks that immediately follow the Wednesday morning that the podcast is posted. The podcast is edited into two parts that are 20 to 30 minutes in length for easy downloading.

Download this week's podcast here. You can also subscribe to automatically receive the weekly shows.

Bands: We would love to hear from you! Please send us a link where we can download your mp3's at least two weeks before your show. But PLEASE DO NOT EMAIL THE MP3 FILES! Just a link is all we need. Thanks!
