Blast it! Blast it! Blast it!
I remixed Test Copy 6 of Soul of a Harper to listen to today at work. And I bloody forgot it!!!! Shiite!
I was half hoping to possibly send it out to be duped because I think I fixed all my probs with it last night. Hmm? Debating whether I should run home at lunch. I'm thinking I will.
Yeah, I could listen to it on the way to Louisiana, but Andrew was not super happy with the fact that I made a solo CD (even though I started it years ago). With it still in production, he'll want to give an opinion on it and he's extra critical with things. It always seems extremely one-sided.
Ye know how some people ask for constructive criticism. When he gives it, it always seems more criticism than constructive. Makes it difficult at times. Course, I am very pleased with the end product. So maybe it's time...
KC Trip coming along
Well, I got an instant message from Melissa with the Hamlet of Mid-Missouri Renaissance Festival. I think she may've been surprised with the people who emailed her to ask to help promote my show there. Unfortunately, I friend my keyboard last night... and worse still, I spilled my wine on it... What a waste of good wine! ;)
Thanks for all the cool responses. Big thing I'm gonna need up there is a venue. I'm actually hoping more for a folk club though than a pub... or even a house concert. Not really sure how many people would show up though. I know we've a decent following in KC. But how many would come just to see me? I'd guess at least twenty, but possibly more.
One thing that I'm really looking forward to about this event is that it should be a good test. I know we've quite a few fans in the Missouri area. But one of the reasons we don't book any gigs up there is that Andrew has a base minimum that we need to make. If we're not making it, then we're not making our potential.
I appreciate what he's doing, but I don't entirely agree. Some areas, we have a strong enough fan base to make it worth our while to book something... like KC. Since tickets will benefit the Hamlet, I'm figuring CD sales will pay for my trip up there... Well, that's what I'm hoping anyway.
Depending on how much the Hamlet and I make at this event, we'll determine if we can build a big enough audience in other areas of the country. That's one of the reasons why I'm also planning on hitting Pennsic next summer. It should be another good test to determine if we can make decent money playing at that big event.
Any case, the wheels are set in motion. The only thing I'm wondering about now is... are there any hotels that'd let me bring my kitties too. I'd hate to leave them at home for a week even with kitty sitters. I'll miss them!
