"Nickie's Niches," will be doing a Prog Folk show as a guest offering on Chuck Simons’ “Top 10” show, tomorrow, 10 October, from 8:00 AM - 10 AM PT, on Progrock.com.

This show is kind of a primer on the San Francisco Sound and discusses how this music influenced Prog Folk in it's own time, and to this day (at least in my opinion).
