Made a few little additions to the site this week. Now the journal entries are separated into batches of 10, so it won’t get too overwhelming. The Photos page has been updated to accommodate a new section, containing fan photos from ProjektFest 2002. I thought it would be a little nicer than pasting them into the Journal… Also added a new link in the Interviews section, and fixed a dead link by just hosting the content ourselves. Fun, fun, fun!

I’ve started hearing back from a few of the fans who attended Projekt Fest 2002. Its so nice to know that people enjoyed our show! We weren’t sure how folks would take to our jazzy new sound, but it seems like it was a success. And my kazoo was a big hit!

Looks like we might have a half dozen shows set up this year when everything is verified. Big stuff, for us! We’re thinking about adding a few more songs to the setlist, perhaps some more electronic stuff?

Cool! I see our mp3.com page has gone well over 100,000 plays this month. I always wonder who listens, if the same people keep coming back over and over, if they listen to every song or not, and that sort of thing. I tend to download the songs I like by other bands, and play them in my iTunes library. I like to make stations, too, like my Dream-Pop Losing Today-inspired stations. Hey, that reminds me, I recently updated my Live365 station, “Lovely Ladies of Electronica,” with 3 totally new hours of music. Look up “Anji Bee” at www.live365.com to hear it.

Wow! Got a few pre-release copies of the new album today and they look great. We’re both really pleased with how the artwork came out, as well as the CD itself. It feels really good to have created the whole CD ourselves from top to bottom. Its been a lot of work, but I think all the love really shines through. I can hardly wait to send everybody who helped us out a copy!

After long consideration, we decided to do the ProjektFest Bazaar show. Ryan had hoped to just fool around and see Philly, but I think it would be good for us to play twice. We’ll get the chance to meet some of the fans and be more personable than we would be the first night, too. Sam hopes we’ll do a totally unique show, but I don’t see how we can with only one album. We sure can’t do acoustic versions of our Ecstatic EP material, haha! I think we’ll play a few covers, for fun, and to spice it up a bit. Still working on our main live set, so no time to plot the acoustic set out just yet. Always working, it seems….
