"I was just looking at your events calendar
e-mail, and I wanted to say Thank You for all the great exposure you give me and
my acts!
Of course I speak for everybody on that list, I'm sure. Sometimes I
lose perspective in the constant struggle to make things work in this wacky
music thang, and seeing it there in writing helps me keep track of how well
things really are going."
