Nah, didn't think it was a complaint - just wanted everyone to know the schedule we were on so no one would get worried yet.

Dad's doing great - should get to go home tomorrow. Thanks for the prayers folks, they are appreciated.

I hope lo-fidelity keeps it up. Not a bad release yet. I'm sure their popularity will grow as more and more people become aware of them.

Thanks for the kind words. The plan is to continue and have this grow and not just be a "flash in the pan" sort of thing.

As far as people hearing about the label...the truth is I'm open suggestions. The internet is only so big, and with the high volume of spam, I've noticed that people tend to ignore email that isn't from someone they actually know...and who can blame them? I do the same thing. We have so much digital static in our lives..and it's hard to rise above that and get a decent message across when you are competeing with 30 other emails (per day) touting, porn, penile enhancements, and get rich quick scams.

Magazine promotion isn't much better...CCM (to me) is a joke, and REALLY expensive to advertise in...and HM, I'm really undecided about HM...I've never really read the mag cause I'm NOT into metal, but I do know they branched out...plus, they aren't cheap either. I think Paste is probably the best bet...but since they are quarterly it's hard to advertise for a release that literally comes up out of nowhere...like the Christmas EP. I don't know...where do you all get your music news? Like I said, I'm open to suggestions...

Much love,

I just checked out your site and then told all my buddies over at www.iljboards.com about it. For the most part they are the CCM crowd but I'm working on them and several of them went to the Cornerstone festival last year. I get my info at messageboards for the bands I like. That doesn't help you though. I know many people hate www.radrockers.com but I do know that they do deals with small labels. I buy a lot of stuff from them.

I used to buy from RadRockers all the time. I've slowed down considerably. I did just open my fabulous Terry Taylor Christmas CD - it's #196 of 500.

Posted by Joey T. on 12-17-2002 at15:09:

I buy from radrockers every so often. A lot of times I'll order like 10 different 3 dollar cds.... They probably lose money off me... Tongue

What got them the nickname of rad "robbers" is their onesey and limited edition section, I won't go near there.....

Posted by brdhsnyrsoul on 12-17-2002 at15:54:

I have puchased one or two things from the onesis area. Usually I stick to imports and indies. I usually already have the stuff I want in the bargain bin.

Posted by dorfsmith on 12-17-2002 at15:55:

I love the $2.00 and $3.00 CD's. Human Condition, Kevin Clay, The Dell Griffiths, Elder, Steve Scott, The Throes, Velocipede...I could go on and on about all the great CD's I've got there for under $2.00

Posted by EdHead on 12-17-2002 at16:42:

$2.00 & $3.00 CDs Rule!

yeah, good for the fans, but bad for the artists..... Crying

Posted by brdhsnyrsoul on 12-17-2002 at17:48:

that's why most of the groups in the bargain bin don't exist anymore. Crying

Posted by dorfsmith on 12-17-2002 at17:54:

At least their art didn't die.

Posted by brdhsnyrsoul on 12-17-2002 at18:02:

and we're not looking for worldly treasures anyways, right?

Posted by dorfsmith on 12-17-2002 at20:29:

Woo Hoo!!! I just got mine. 164/500. I'm listening to song 2 right now. really nice so far!

Posted by Author of the Post on 12-18-2002 at08:37:

Am I the only person who ordered from the webstore who still hasn't received the new TST EP? I could have walked to Wentzville and gotten it faster. Frown

I want my new CD.

I'm assuming that you are. Sorry, dude. I'd let you listen to mine if you lived closer.
