You know, sadly, this time I believe you.
I was offline yesterday, found a full inbox of Auditeer messages this
morning but then looked at the subject lines...and that half of the posts
were from bob...ohhhhh, boy.
Straw breaking camel's back? Perhaps. But I know you've been trying to get
off this mortal e-coil for years and we wouldn't let you. Now we have to. So
before I say anything else, may I say THANK YOU MICHAEL for ringmastering
this circus and putting up with its petulant children for so long. I've been
here so long it's going to be absolutely bizarre not to have it around
anymore. I have years of great memories, hundreds of songs I never would
have heard and have met dozens of you in person with a 99% success rate.
It's like being evicted from a house you share with a bunch of people (whom
you mostly like) because the house is being condemned. Your first impulse is
to recreate the house exactly so you can comfortably teleport into the next
one with minimal effort and change. But maybe this is an opportunity to
design that new house. Albeit quickly. :)
I have neither the time nor patience to craft a Yahoo list or some such area
in this short a period of time. My schedule won't permit it and frankly
there might be better options I'm unaware of. I'm hoping someone out there
with the talent and time can take the reins and build that new house so we
can all move over. Maybe a place where the musicians on this list could post
MP3s or artwork or we could archive mixtapes(discs) of the end-of-year poll
winning artists. But at least a place to meet, chat, exchange opinions and
tout artists we like and ask about ones we've merely heard of.
Just PLEASE don't make us a MySpace group.
cheers
