James Turecamo. In 1850, the latest in a long line of 13-year-old boys began a job as a “hoggee” – leading mules towing barges along the Erie Canal.

GLENS FALLS – You may have heard before the old adage “Violence is not the answer”, and perhaps there are a lot of cases where this might be good advice. However, in this particular case we’re not talking about that blowhard who stole your favorite parking spot or the person at the show who gave […]
Wet Specimens Interview. We reached out to Colin from the band Wet Specimens. I had questions, and he had answers. RRX: Your demo is great, raw, and I usually don’t see demos on Bandcamp.

You are father (Tom) and son (Tim) and you both have remarkable experiences in the realms of both the paranormal and UFOs, which I’ve been very interested in for a long time. Tim, what’s your area of expertise? Tim: I am […]
Frankie Cavone. It’s funny how you get into the creative arts. In Frankie Cavone’s case, it was very physical, on four wheels, with grinding and ollies. This would, in a series of fortunate incidents, put him on the path to video production and entertainment news outlet Mirth Films. You may know his work; in fact, […]
We are getting back to school, and that might just mean a little free time for parents to, of course, read the Xperience Digital Edition. This month featuring videographer Frankie Cavone, The Skatalites’ Natty Frenchy and punk/metal band Wet Specimens.

As a broadcaster, former broadcaster, check that; once a broadcaster always a broadcaster. That’s like once an asshole, well you get the point. As a broadcaster I absolutely HAD to keep up with tech […]
