Hi Everyone,
I was really dismayed when I read this post because I realized that it was
my error in judgment that caused Steve to miss out on the news. As some of
you who have been a member of this list may have realized, I haven't posted
about an IPO show in about a year. I used to post before every IPO show
with news about the schedule, etc..., but over the years I started to sense
an ever increasing apathy, possibly due to newer members who weren't
familiar or weren't interested, or to long-standing members who no longer
cared. I'm a sensitive person, and it hurt me when I would either get no
response to my posts, or would get a joke response to one of the show's
lineups (thankfully, not having to do with the quality of the bands, but
maybe some pattern in the band names...).
Anyway, I need to remember that when it comes to IPO I'm supposed to be
first and foremost a festival promoter, and I forgot that, and I let my
emotions get the better of me. Also, I assumed that anyone on the list who
did have an interest in IPO would check the website and/or myspace page
without my having to prompt them. I was wrong, and Steve, I do apologize
for that, and I apologize to any Auditeer who has missed my posts.
I will resume posting about IPO. Hopefully some of you unfamiliar with the
festival will check it out. I'm sure you'd be glad you did.
