up to date, by the way…

Wednesday, December 24th, 2008

You know, I was thinking…we’ve sorta’ kept everyone in the dark about the changes that are going on. It’s hard to keep up with everything. A person doesn’t really realize how busy indie artists are. It starts with the music, obviously. I write a song (or Sanja does) we bring to rehearsal, we play it, change it, vote on it, keep it, toss it..whatever. But it really doesn’t stop there. Not only do we work on the music, schedule the practices, book shows, deal with the promotional people, design artwork, run a website, deal with iTunes, Rhapsody, Napster, etc. Recordings, demo’s, Radio, Webcasts and magazines…they ALL want some time. ALL that, damn near every day, PLUS now we get a new drummer on board. You know what that means, right? Re-Design EVERYTHING! Up to and including the music itself. *sigh*. I’m not complaining..really, I’m not. To be perfectly honest, I’m actually pretty damn excited about it. It’s like, we get a second chance, we get to breath a little bit. Put on a different hat and change it up, all under control and perfectly planned. See what I mean? Here’s what’s going on…I can’t help it…I have to leak a little of it out there. Besides, you won’t tell, right? We’ve got the new drummer (Eric, okay..his name is Eric), we’ve got a BRAND NEW website going to take off at the end of the year. This thing will have it all. TONS of goodies and a MILLION ways to get you involved in the band. Not just listening to the tunes and telling your cat how much you like “For You”. I mean, getting INVOLVED! You’ll be wrapped up in just about everything that we do AND it’ll get you all sorts of promotions and special goodies. We’ve got a fully functional newsletter (really, almost an e-zine) coming out every month, we’ve got a full blown TOUR in the works (hear that people…we’re coming to get you!), the limited edition CD’s are almost gone and the last couple of hundred or so are going to contain an AWESOME prize. Some really great shows and promo’s are coming up, including the Video blog that we’ve been talking about. Hang with us, people, it’s about to go crazy. In the immortal words of whoever said it….’stand back…I don’t know how big this thing is going to get’
*breath out*

okay..so it’s just between us, right? ;)

Happy Holidays?

Wednesday, December 24th, 2008

I question it, really. Is this going to be a happy holiday season? not for some to be sure. I think we’ll manage okay. The band is up and running again. (for those of you who don’t know, Dan’s out…new guy is in. More details on that to come shortly). I’m think that people are going to have a pretty good season, maybe a little less commercial this year. Maybe a little more cozy, this year. Stay home, hang on the couch or around the table, fix a delicious dinner and enjoy the evening. Anything wrong with that? naah.

So..anyway. Keep your eye on the site, the myspace, be sure to check out the new store with all the goodies and I’ll talk to you again soon.

Friday Night Soul

Saturday, December 13th, 2008

Wow, I have a ton of stuff to post up here. For those of you that don’t know, I was on vacation there for a while up north is Gloriously frigid and snowy Indiana. I’ve got crap-pile of stuff to post on here regarding that (alas, no pictures…they’re too incriminating). I will say, however, that I witnessed a VERY drunk person SLAM their head on a glass window last night and scatter everything in the vicinity. One would think that either A. the glass would break and the person would tumble to the streets below or B. They would get up, shake it off and return to their normal way of life. Neither of these things happened. *LOL* It was [dance, dance] *BAM!!* then a slow, dazed Ooozing down the wall to the floor. And their she sat for at least 5 minutes, no exaggeration. It was Hilarious! Her friends tried to help her up, but she was mere dead weight to the world. VERY funny. Oh, and by the way, go check out our myspace…there’s a very important blog being posted there as well. Something amazing, horrifying and terrific all in one little blurry blast!! www.myspace.com/anyonesguessmusic

Later,
