The 19th annual Soundwaves Christmas Party went off without a hitch Saturday, December 6th and once again, the goal was to help those in our communities that are less fortunate. The result was an awesome show with great entertainment, some surprise moments, one or two touching reunions and the true finale to Soundwaves' 25th season celebration!
But the real reward was the h… Continue

Tis the season!
For the 19th year, Pacifica Community Television and Capricorn Entertainment will present the SOUNDWAVES CHRISTMAS PARTY, a food, clothing and toy drive that has grown from (very) humble beginnings to the centerpiece of our holiday calendar! By "our," I refer to the growing family of friends, colleagues and volunteers that power this noble little fundraiser, a list that grows longer every year.
Hence… Continue

It all comes down to this.
On August 16th, the cast and crew of Soundwaves assembled for one final shoot, a wrap party that celebrated a quarter century of great times and that inimitable SW spirit! On screen and off, people told stories, reflected on events and reunited under a very… Continue
We want to extend a big hearty SOUNDWAVES THANK YOU to everyone who contributed to this final season and helped to make our final episode/wrap party a rousing success!
This past season was also quite an emotional journey as we reconnected with old friends, revisited old memories and created a whole lot of new ones! From our Big Announcement to the long fin… Continue
It’s Sunday, September 28th as I type this. The final episode has at long last rolled off the Avid onto a master air copy. I still have to create a digital master and DVD master but those are formalities.
The final show is done. The series is done.
And after five months or producing, scanning and digitizing footage, writing, shooting, and editing the whole mess into a 12-hour story, it feels kind of strange to not have another show to immediately begin working on. It feels awesome and freeing… Continue

I am Soundwaves. Soundwaves is me.
If you’ve never been on film or TV before, there’s a surreal aura that surrounds you when you’re watching yourself on a big or small screen.
Usually the “you” on the screen isn’t really you. If you’re acting, you’re usually portraying a character that someone else has created.
If you’re hosting though, especially on a show like Soundwaves, you do bring a lot of yourself to the table.
I appeared in around 150 episodes over those 20-plus years, and when I pee… Continue

The next-to-last show was always designed as the last act reveal. With one more show until the end, nothing left to hide, no more music labels to suck up to and a lot of stories to tell -- Dennis Willis and Steven Kirk sit down on the opposite side of the microphone from Steve Wagner for a funny, surprising and very candid interview.
Wagner and Willis co-hosted FilmTrip from 1993 and… Continue
