Collected Thread

It’s still Tuesday, if only by a few minutes, but the video interview on Collected Thread is now online! Ali interviews Lindsay Zodrow as she tells Uncovering Oklahoma about their handmade and vintage offerings. For pictures and more information, visit our Shades of Fashions episode page. I’ll have even more pictures up on our Facebook page later on.

Today, I took a business trip (I totally get to say that now) to Norman. I took pictures from some of the past places we had visited as I plan to reformat all of the episode pages to match the style of our sixth episode. I also did some research for two of our upcoming episodes, one on art galleries and the other on the mystic and metaphysical realm. Stay tuned, especially if you want to watch our bloopers from our fashion episode.

Violet Avenue Boutique

Next up in our fashion episode installment is the Violet Avenue Boutique in Norman’s Campus Corner. In the video Sasha interviews Becca Chansolme, the owner of Violet Avenue, as she talks about her affordable boutique and gives us a highlighted tour of some of her store’s items. Be sure to visit the Shades of Fashion episode page to see pictures and learn more information.

Sorry it’s a day behind (okay, technically, it’s much later). I blame zombies. The Violet Avenue segment is fantastic so watch it! I have an interview for another shop planned for later on this week. Perhaps you’ll see our new title credit sequence then?

Mister Rabbit

Instead of featuring a bunch of places in one video, for our Shades of Fashion episode we’re going to give each place their own video. To start, we’ve got the One-of-a-Kind vintage store, Mister Rabbit, in Oklahoma. Follow Sasha (not the white rabbit) as she takes a journey with Keri Marie through her store in Oklahoma City. Hop to the episode page for more information and pictures of our visit. There are even more pictures in our Facebook page.

Tomorrow: the release of our visit at Violet Avenue Boutique!
Later: the release of the Holiday Family Jam video!
Even Later: the release of a yet to be determined fashion store!

Second Wind

Uncovering Oklahoma visited the volunteered ran coffee shop, Second Wind, last Friday. Watch the video to see volunteer Josh explain Second Wind followed by interviews and clips of Sean Barker, Joe Hopkins, and John Calvin and the Tin Canyon Band.

However, as a special treat, I have two full length performances from the show Friday night. Watch Joe Hopkins play “Reaching” and Sean Barker play “Build It Up”.

As a reminder, Uncovering Oklahoma will be at the Holiday Music Jam in Tulsa this Friday so next week we’ll have videos from that adventure. Then the week after that we should have our sixth episode, which will focus on fashion shops, online for your viewing pleasure.

Episode 5 Released

In Episode 5, we visit Kamp’s for Robotic Wednesdays, Groovy’s for some funky times, and Paradise City where they’re not responsible for one night stands. The episode runs at about 15 minutes. If you want to learn about some great places to dance in the city that are outside of the Bricktown area, this episode is for you. By the way, for this episode the bloopers play at the end during the credits.

Not only is Episode 5 finally online, but we now sport an awesome new look for the web site. Though, it’s what’s on the inside that really matters, right? So there’s also some new content in the Date Guide, which is now broken by cities and features suggestions for picnic spots. I also fixed some errors on the page for Episode 1. There are more sections in the works for the site. We are already working on our next episode, which is dedicated to the metro’s fashion shops.

Now, go watch our latest episode, tell your friends about us (especially if they are rich and want to sponsor our show), and visit some of the places we’ve uncovered for you.

I’ve completed work on the new special video featuring Midtown Deli’s Open Mic Night on Tuesdays. Watch the video to see the owners, Dan and Bridget Lindsey, explain Midtown Deli’s offerings followed by interviews and clips of Josh Cox, Justin Witte, and cOnspiracy of Angels.

Plus, I added the Acoustic page to our Music section. I added information about Josh Cox and Justin Witte there.

Go rock out!
