Hectic Monday. MUSIC-less Monday?

Hey guys so we are already passed the 9th Episode of the Two Twins Show and only have 2 more episodes left!!!



As i mentioned the final four were the Detours, Quincy Vidal, The Peeps, and Second Nature closing out the first season of the Two Twins Show
but as soon as I made this video above, I got word that the Detours had to unexpectedly drop out

this left me at a stand still
I had little to time time to get a band together for the show, it was such short notice that I truely believed I wasn't even sure I could get a band in time

but as good ol' Purchase will have it... I found my musical artist, or shall I say artist(s)... plural

I had asked my Friend and Arts Management Major comrade, Max, if he would want to come on the show and play a little bass
(for those who don't know, Max is an insanely talented bass player)
He told me he would talk it over with his band and get back to me

AT THE SAME TIME.....

my neighbor Brian told me that he could possibly get someone for me and I agreed to his help

within a few hours max confirmed with me that his Band Wool Over Eyes (metal Band) would play on our upcoming Monday Show at 10:30 PTV channel 69 or LIVE via PTV Live stream

When I arrived home later that night Keila had informed me that our Neighbor Brian kept his word and found us another musician and basically neighbor of ours Matty from the Band The Test Tube Casanova Brigade
I have never heard from any of the artists about to play from the show and was worried they wouldn't be talented enough, on top of that my mom was watching! So when the Monday night arrived... I was proven terribly terribly wrong. THANK GOD! ALL THE ACTS WERE SUPER TALENTED AND AMAZING

Wool Over Eyes was incredible! I don't USUALLY like Metal but I really enjoyed what they were giving me. Take a Listen on their Myspace

Then it was Matty's turn to perform and he gave me and the girls a private show, which may never happen again in life... we were really up close to him, you'll see in the video to come but take a listen on their Myspace as well

The show was great. Best one yet! and my talent really beat my expectations, especially for such short notice

I couln't thank them enough. Footage will be up sometime after thanksgiving break of Wool over Eyes and of Matty from The Test Tube Casanova Brigade

Katrina Cunningham on Two Twins

Katrina Cunningham performance and Interview on The Two Twins Show (FULL)

October 11, 2010
Episode 6



Time is just flying by and on episode 6 we didn't have a musical artist, instead we had spoken word artist Katrina Cunningham

She was such a pleasure to have and I was ecstatic to have her on the show.  Keila had yet to hear any of her poetry or any of her work until the night of the show and I was really nervous that she wouldn't like it but after Katrina's poem - Hot off the Press
Keila was thoroughly impressed




I love having the show, bringing in new and fresh talent for the internet world to view and a listen to.  Especially with an artist like Katrina Cunningham who is a dancer, poet, singer, writer and basically everything else.  I want people to take notice of all the talent one person can have and she is truly inspiring even in my life because as much as I love to write poems and sing I am just so shy.  After the show she encouraged me to join poetry circles and made me feel not as insecure.


FULL LENGTH INTERVIEW!!!!


When Keila and I finally got to sit down with her and conduct our interview we both realized how down to earth she was.  She is just full of smiles and positive energy.  I knew how nice she was and she's even a great neighbor! (literally lives right across from me and Keila's apartment at suny Purchase) but when we interviewed her i realized how similar we both were and she's just too cool words. watch both parts of the interview and you'll know what i mean


PT 1




PT 2






FINAL PERFORMANCE




She is such a talented person and performer and the Two Twins Show was more than thankful and lucky to have her grace our studio with her presence and performances

thanks Katrina!
Big things are in store for you

ALSO KEEP POSTED FOR KATRINA'S 1ST ALBUM... IT'S IN THE WORKS AND SURE TO JUST GIVE YOU CHILLS

take a listen to her on Quincy Vidal's album in the song: I SEE YOU

and the I SEE YOU (REMIX)

7th Episode: Backwards Bird (on the way)

Hey all.
So I can and can't believe that our 7th episode of the Two Twins Show has come and gone! and it was a great one at that

backwards bird

"The Backwards Bird is a 5 piece rock group based on Long Island. Their sophisticated blend of Rock, Reggae, and Psychedelic, enhanced by their versatile playing, energetic live performances, and tight three part harmony have set them part from other acts in the music scene.




The have two full length albums Songs of a Collective Age and Chaos on the Rise, recorded 2008 and 2009 respectively. 

For More info or booking: TheBackwardsBird@gmail.com  "



the backwards birdThe Backwards Bird performed and they made me fell like i was on a beach in hawaii, ... nah just kidding but I definitely felt like a surfer rock beach chick in heels (I was wearing heels tonight, as was Keila) Keila enjoyed them so much and was really excited for them to perform

She's a big fan of their song

The show went so well, the songs were great, the interview was real "chill" I think the Twins and The Backwards band bonded. We are great pals now, almost biffles.

check out the Backwards Bird Myspace

and take a listen to them on their BandCamp

Dont forget to follow us on Twitter and LIKE us on Facebook!

thanks again and stay tuned for the Backwards Bird footage from the show

Fall Fest Brawl


So this past Friday at Suny Purchase Fall Fest occured, it's the 2nd biggest Musical event at Purchase hosted by the Major Events Coordinator and this years headliner was Wu Tang's very own Raekwon
Security not doing Anything

You can also check out who played the Fall Fest 2010 Line up HERE

but most importantly there was a Brawl during the Show from a certain someone, not going to mention names but you can definitely find her on an old episode of the Two Twins Show... (wink wink Hint hint)

During the Fall Fest Show at Purchase College Keila and I recieved stage wrist bands to take photos of the artists performing, which includes Raekwon!  So excited to be on stage and photograph, we both didn't know what to expect

From what I saw
The Fight started because The "unidentified girl" was blocking a cameraman's view (He had access to the stage) and the girl did not.  Security wasn't doing anything to prevent all the people coming on stage.  This is unfair because only press and people who had access to the stage couldn't get their jobs done, As a photographer, having people in my way of taking a shot is annoying, for someone who is filming... IT'S HELL!


So security wasn't doing anything, more people kept going on and the guy filming got mad and at one point I did hear him say "I'm supposed to be here." I think they were trying to kick him off first and then realized it was the girl and everyone else on stage causing problems


(The Picture of the camera man punching) I don't know if he is punching the girl or someone else, He must of been trying to get someone out of the way, either/ or... He was mad.  So of course the situation gets crazy and leads to one of Purchase's craziest moments on campus.  The Raekown Freak out/ Raekown Brawl. I am surprise there isnt much footage but here it is... for your viewing pleasure Purchase college

Girl Punching/ Going crazy
I THINK someone tried to take her off stage and she over reacted. Take a look


So this video is probably gonna get out there! take a look, spread it around, more videos and pictures to come
If you have another version on the story, leave your two scents! leave comments.

Leila on the Two Twins Show

Sorry for the slow updates but I finally go almost up to date with all the videos!

On Halloween Week
Monday October 25th, 2010
Musical Artist: Leila

Leila graced her presence onto the Two Twins Show set aka the PTV studios
She performed 3 amazing songs and belted them out like no other! I was really excited to have her on the show because I think it marked a turning point at the Two Twins Show






During the process, the Two Twins Show was going through some changes from being an Entertainment based show, to a music based show. She was also one of the best Talents we had on the show, thus far and it only keeps on getting better






When she makes it... She can definitely say "I was on the Two Twins Show" There is also a interview with Leila coming out soon so check for that on the Two Twins Show designated home on KarlaMeraVideos Youtube Channel





LIKE LEILA?
find her on her Facebook Page, LISTEN to more of her music on Leila's Myspace Page and buy her album. ONLY $4.95 on Itunes!


She was so nice and down to earth, definitely a pleasure to have on the show... Until Next time folks



~COMING SOON~

Tron & DVD

The Hip Hop sensation know as Tron & DVD came to the Twin Twins Show Studios this past October (october 18th 2010) and we are getting the footage from it tonight! hopefully.  Their performances were amazing and they were such a blast to be around

Keila knew Tron (Norvin Van Dunk) from their college days at Mercy College and has been a fan of his ever since, she met DVD afterwards






I was feeling rather apethetic about Hip Hop lately because I felt it had no direction, and no more purchase in the Music Industry,  Don't get me wrong, I am a huge fan of OLD SCHOOL HIP HIP but todays Hip Hop/ Rap you hear on the radio Sucks and underground hip hop/ rap needs to  more adventurous but when I heard TRON and DVD prior to being on the Two Twins Show, I was a little bit more encouraged and when I heard them perform on the show it was like I was watching history being born.  WHICH I WAS! keep an eye out for Tron and DVD, they are talented artists who really know how to perform and please a crowd, not to mention they are funny as hell.


and for a side note: I am not a fan o drake. he doesn't do it for me, and definitely doesn't do it for Hip Hop/ Rap... really Weezy? you picked him? drake? really?

Check out Tron's Soundcloud, Myspace, and Facebook

Troubles and Upcoming artist

Hey everyone
So I am having trouble with the 3rd episode of the Two Twins Show
I uploaded it to my USB and apparently only 20 something minutes recorded!!! I hope I can fix this problem soon because I wasnt to get footage of Conor Wenk and Sugaloo up soon





NEXT WEEKS ARTIST: KATRINA CUNNINGHAM
Next Monday Dancer/ Poet/ Writer Katrina Cunningham will be gracing the PTV studios. I was first intrigued by Katrina when I saw a video of hers on Facebook and was astounded at what I was hearing
I am not impressed by most poets but the way the words come out of her mouth come out strong, somewhat sultry and give off a sense of life. She gives her words life through sound, making them sounds, making them more than just words

Here is a good example of what I mean when I talk about Katrina's work

WHAT YOU DONT SEE



beautifully done. With her use of rhythm and words provide wisdom and a world unknown and unseen by most of us. She is a powerful speaker and her work makes me just want to sit down, close my eyes and listen
I am definitely a fan


I love how Katrina Cunningham is not afraid to speak her mind, her art. As graphic or harsh the material may be... her poems still exude beauty

Take a listen to Marta's Daughters and you'll understand what I mean by harsh material but if you listen carefully and thoroughly and let the poem empower you and take you whole, you'll be taken to a different part of your mind


(performing at South bay Cabaret at Purchase College)


There's so many more videos of her on her that I can't embed on here but I can't wait until she comes onto the Two Twins Show and performs.


HOT OFF THE PRESS




You can catch Katrina Cunningham on the Two Twins Show this upcoming MONDAY  November 1st at 10:30pm on PTV channel 69 or you can view it online via live stream at the PTV livestream here!

Great Show Tonight with Leila!

I can't tell you enough how excited I am for tomorrow's show!
Probably the Biggest Show I am having to date

MY MUSICAL ARTISTS is.... singer/ songwriter Leila she is fantastic, her voice could make angels cry
don't believe me? take a listen to her myspace

Leila Hegazy Myspace

Leila Hegazy singer songwriter


This Pop/ R&B artist from Staten Island has this breath taking voice, her vocals are powerful and make you want to just listen.  Her soulful and sultry voice is unique and can stop you in your tracks.  She is underground right now but most likely not for long.  Her sound makes Leila's music stand out of the Pop/ R&B genre and it's exactly what music needs right now!



Leila is considered to be Purchase College's NEXT BIG THING and people compare her to Regina Spektor status and for some of you who don't know, Regina Spektor graduated from Purchase College.  I mean this is no surprise, she is talented, gifted and beautiful
In my opinion...
you guys better keep an eye out on this chick.... She is going places

YOU CAN EVEN BUY HER ALBUM FOR UNDER 5 DOLLARS ON LEILA'S ITUNES
Another great artists giving you, the reader/ listener great cheap music!


Follow her on Facebook

You can see the show tonight! at 10:30pm - 11:00pm on Channel 69 PTV or if you are not at Purchase College you can view it Live on the Live Stream HERE
