Episode 1: Phantom Bowling; 11/15/06- AT THE STARTING GATE: Dagmar 2 dips its toes into the watery netherworld of open mikes at the bedazzling Milky Way Lounge & Lanes in Jamaica Plain, MA, where beers are cheap and bowling is free after 9 pm
Episode 2: Unchainable Squawk; 11/28/06- ON THE FRINGE: Dagmar 2 discovers the unhindered utterance of 21st century beat poets and the jubied wonders of the Squawk Coffeehouse, perhaps the off-beatest open mike in the country.
Episode 3: Cartage; 03/06/07- IN THE TRENCHES: Dagmar 2 runs the complex bird's-eye-low-down of a NYC gig schlep from their Greenpoint, Brooklyn studio to a show at The Living Room on Manhattan's lower east side.
Episode 4: GlitterBugs; 05/23/07- INTO BUGS: An exclusive peak into the secret life of Dagmar, and the making of Dagmar GlitterBugs, followed by a Halloween Night gig, Dagmar2's first performance at The Lizard Lounge in Cambridge, MA
Episode 5: Music Under New York; 05/23/07- ON THE BUSK: Dagmar2 auditions before a panel of 30 judges in the middle of Grand Central Station hoping to be one of the 20 artists selected (we were) from the 70 auditioners to be granted a lifetime license to power-busk in the primo locations of the NYC subway system. Featuring "Subway Idol" THEO EASTWIND, with his "Ten Rules of Subway Artistry"
