  1. I stole this verbatim from the banjo group I frequent and have no
    additional information. I am guessing that John and Amy don't mind it
    being posted, but apologize in advance if they do.

    "Hi everyone CNN was at banjo.com and shot about 2hr. of film. The show
    is People in the News and the schedule is Sat 8/27/05 5AM-6AM and
    5PM-6PM Sun. 8-28-05 5AM-6AM ,2PM-3PM and 7PM-8PM. The show is about
    John Drummond and banjo.com and Unicycle.com I my be in it I was playing
    with the band that is me on mandolin I know 3 chords Greg is playing
    banjo, Gary guitar, Perry on bass. John played banjo for a bit. I dont
    know what is going to be on the news I guess I will have to wait it
    out."

    our pets.

  3. Thank you, Raphael. We sent this note out to our unicycle customers
    today:

    Dear Friends:

    We're slowly using up our 15 minutes of fame, with one of those minutes
    being broadcast this weekend. Our two companies, Unicycle.com and
    banjo.com, will be featured on the CNN show People In The News. You'll
    find the schedule below for the Eastern Time Zone. We've not yet seen
    it, but we're grateful that CNN chose to share our story with their
    viewers.

    Thank you for supporting Unicycle.com since its launch just six years
    ago. We hope you enjoy this snapshot of our efforts.

    We also want to take this opportunity to offer a free Kris Holm poster
    to the first 100 customers who place an order of $50 or more beginning
    Saturday, August 27. To quality, just type CNN in the comments box as
    you place your order.

    Best regards,
    John & Amy Drummond
    www.Unicycle.com
    www.banjo.com

    I have it set to record, and I will load it on my computer, and I can
    make a DVD. I have never tried uploading video, so if anyone wants to
    guide me through it, I'll do it. But it would probably be quicker for
    one of these techno types to do it.

    thanx

    have a stab at uploading the video to a gallery
    it's pretty much the same as uploading a pic, i think u just have to
    select uploading a different kind of file from the drop-down menu on hte
    upload page
    john childs will give better advice, i'm sure

  7. Someone help me on this. I don't watch much TV. The only CNN channel I
    have seems to be CNN Headline news. Is there another channel that's
    just CNN?

    At 5pm EST (2pm pst), I set my VCR to tape on the CNN channel, but it
    had only CNN Headline news. I just scrolled through the show and there
    was nothing.

    I just went to CNN.com and looked up the schedule and found the listing
    for "People in the News". The only description that might be Johns show
    was at 5a.m. this morning, the rest of the descriptions at the show
    times shows description of the Windsor family.

    So, did I miss the correct channel and did I miss the only showing of
    the Drummond segment.? I am bummed, if I did🙁
    I am on dial up, so streaming isn't viable.

  8. My cable has 2 CNN's One is Headline News, and the other is CNN.

    I'm disappointed because my guide also say's 7-8 EST Sunday is the 'The
    Royals' not 'The Drummonds'. I hope it's a mistake in the guide.

    I didn't get the nice letter with CNN offer. Wonder why I'm not on the
    mailing list? UDC is great, I could not be happier with their products
    or service. Glad to hear that they are so successful.

  10. I have it recorded on a DVD from my DVR. The segment on UDC is about 1
    minute long. Short.

    I probably won't get time to edit it down and post it till tomorrow
    evening. If someone has it recorded and can get it posted sooner that
    is AOK with me.

  11. I have an MPEG-1 version of the segment in my 'Monster gallery'
    (http://gallery.unicyclist.com/monster). I'll work on making a higher
    quality WMV9 version sometime later. The segment was only 60 seconds
    long.
