Dang....That is my Song Playing!!!

Hi everyone. So, yeah, I know I promised to blog more this week but whew.......this has been the craziest week for all of us preparing for the Cd Release Saturday. There has literally been something to do every hour. Having said that, I had to find a few minutes to blog tonight about my experience today.

I went yesterday to Tangi 96.5 and taped an interview with a wonderful guy, Al Toups, who DJs as The Bayou Wolfman. Al agreed to have me on and to play Louisiana, from the new cd. I met him about 5 P.M. and we recorded the interview. Al set up the time for the interview and song to play where my schedule would allow me to listen.

So, after my fourth hour class exited my band hall, I grabbed my keys and headed out to my truck. Because I was in Denham Springs, the station was going in and out. So, I drove around in our parking lot until I found a place where I could listen and hear the signal clearly. I am sure that some people must have been mused by me driving around the parking lot seemingly with no purpose. When I stopped, I turned up the volume and listened to Louisiana. I can't describe the feeling of sitting there listening to my song play on the air waves. It was awesome and it charged me up to get ready for a huge marketing campaign which will include us pushing Louisiana and the project in many different directions. After sitting there today, I am energized to work even harder. I got a taste of what that felt like and I liked it a lot.

Tomorrow is the big day and months of planning has gone into preparing for this event. I hope the weather holds and everyone who comes out really enjoys their evening at the Weightless Release. Hope to see you there.

Gregory
