Hello!
Would you be interested in playing us on your show? We are a SW Wales band and are ripping it up! Our website is www.arketta.com if you want to hear tracks. White Lies is the track we are currently looking to push in the US.
I look forward to hearing from you.

Am I right, as a non Welsh speaker, that your name is BIG BEAR. If so 'I like it'. You sound as though you have a wonderful life over there. It's great to think that so many people are extolling the Welsh life and the Welsh culture. Are you on Facebook too? John

No worries, I got 7 other stations to do the same, will try and get a few more to do specials next year, if you fancy doing the same I would be more than happy to work with you.

Hwyl

Hey, listening to the replay of your show now!! Tell you what, I aint sure about surviving on just water on St. David's Day;)

Could there be an interest in having a welsh tenor perform in your area?

Bezahn (Greetings),

My name is Ken Lonewolf and I am of the Shawnee-White Madoc Native Americans from the area of Pittsburgh. We were there for a few thousand years, however, we took white prisoners from somewhere down the Ohio River about two or three hundred years before the arrival of whites to western Pennsylvania. We adopted them into the Shawnees.

I have been to Fort Mountain and I am convinced that this rock wall is of European construction.
It actually matches a rock wall that I have seen in the woods near Trier, Germany right down to the sentry stations along the wall
and Native Americans would not have had a use for such a structure.

Mooneyed people to my people are the round-eyed Europeans. My Shawnee people were called squinty-eyed people by the whites, as that is normal for Indians to focus in that manner.
The first whites to western Penna. called my Shawnee people "the half-breeds" due to some of our people having European features, such as light hair, blue and green eyes, etc.
Our last chief in the early 1800's was Chief White Madoc. He sold some of our land to white settlers.
This is not a wild tale, but is recorded in court records.

I have met Dana Olson, author of a small book on PPrince Madoc, aand he kindly showed me rok structures in the forests across the river from Louisville, Ky.

Most people want to believe that a Madog came here in the sixth century, but I am led to believe that the Madog that I trace to came here in the 12th century.

Much is to be learned about this historical anomally in America.

Are there any of these Shawnee-White Madoc Indians left? Yes, most are my relatives.

I dance at our annual pow-wow in western Penna. in the summer.

actually we have a cd and we're in the process of recording another 1.i currently live in florida but will be moving to wales in several months.keep in touch,later.
