Here's my dilemma ...

May 10th, 2008 (11:29 pm)

Here is my dilemma: Now that the remix CD is done why do I bother promoting my music ?

I mean I'm quite happy with the remix CD and I'll send a few out to the band members and sell them on State street but do I really have to try to tour and promote it on websites ?

I mean it is on http://www.myspace.com/artpaultheremixproject

But life is fun where I am so maybe I shouldn't waist time and energy trying to get somewhere and failing.

BTW if you do want a copy of the remix CD and your not one of the musicians or bands that remixed my song then please send $12 to:

Art Paul Schlosser
5510 Pheasant Hill Rd
Monona,WI 53716

Dude, it's totally up to you how you go about promoting your stuff. You're obviously someone who makes music because you love doing it rather than because you're trying to "get somewhere."

Actually I was trying to get somewhere and am still but only if it is a sure thing because I can't afford to loose money trying to play places that don't pay.

You promote all your other CDs, why not this one?

Well actaully I already promoted it.

I sent songs to Dr Demento and I might still send him some more and I sent it to The Mad Music Archive and CD Baby so it will soon be on Apple iTunes check out my other songs there at:

But I guess what I am saying is now that it is done I don't feel the need to make any more CDs or try to go on tour.

Though I already have been doing things. Since this post I have sent out blurbs getting people to request my songs on both on Dr Demento at http://www.drdemento.com/request/

and on the Mad Music dementia Top 20 at: http://www.themadmusicarchive.com/top20voting.aspx

Or at:http://www.themadmusicarchive.com/artist_details.aspx?ArtistID=315

I guess if I knew I might get David Letterman or something I might try harder but with gas prices and airplane prices and Scifi Conventions not really offering to pay me anything I think it is easier to just play on State street.BTW I sold 4 Remix CDs last week there.
