Radio Reset Promo PhotoRadio Reset, formed in 2006, in Clearwater, FL, are Andrew Arthur, lead vocals and co-writer; Andy Pardue, guitar, background vocals and co-writer; Mark Allen, bass; Johnny Coryn, drums; and Jake Flanders, background vocals, guitar and synths.

They have continued to perform to both small and large audiences at select dates in the Tampa/Clearwater area as well as other venues across the United States that include "House of Blues," in Las Vegas and the "The Wheeler Opera House" in Aspen, Colorado. In addition Radio Reset has also opened for various national and international recording artists.
The band's sound has proven appealing to all ages. Music critic Eric Snider says,"RADIO RESET is radio ready with a gleaming pop-rock sound driven by the crystalline tenor (and song writing) of Andrew Arthur."

Right from the stellar opening of Radio Reset's EP you can tell that this band is about an off the scale, unsullied acceleration. That is the focus of Radio Reset, creating a sonic force that is a blend of each member's musical influences and style. From U2 to the Beatles to Jimmy Eat Wor 1b70 ld, Radio Reset touches an expanse of musical decades without exploiting them.

This is a place where potential, action and trepidation overlap", explains Robert Langford, motioning towards a peeled back, exposed section of his painting, Latent Capabilities".

The painting could also describe the state of the Charlotte art scene, which for years has been stocked with capable artists, but seemingly limited to small galleries in the South End and NoDa.

Home Ownership: Road to the Poor House
Americans are obsessed about buying a home, says Tom Graneau (Gran-OH), author of a new book: Renters Win, Home Owners Lose: Revealing the Biggest Scam in America. Home ownership has been widely regarded as one of the best means to financial prosperity. Yet, few people have taken the time to understand the long-term, financial ramifications associated with home ownership to know the real difference between renting and owning.
What if this popular, "best investment," choice is nothing more than a dangerous nightmare? While millions of people assume thousands of dollars in mortgage debt, and spend roughly 30 years trying to repay the note, the best they hope to achieve is a zero percent return on their home investment. In the end, most home owners lose money on the deal.

New Ways to Control the Future
Sometimes we feel like life is passing by in front of us. Everybody seems to have everything we always wanted. We feel less worthy than the rest of the world. It is a horrible feeling that devours us every day. Unbearable. Our low self-esteem is due to lack of knowledge. We dont know how to behave, how to dress, how to talk, how to persuade, how to enchant every person we meet.
We dont know how to make our dreams come true either. We dream and dream and everything stays as a dream. Our reality makes us believe this is it, there is nothing else out there for us, only for the lucky ones, the privileged ones, and of course, we are not part of that group.
