Just got a copy of a great resource for those who are in an independent band, and are looking for ways to get yourself into the ears of listeners who want to hear your music. (And it doesn't hurt that Coverville is mentioned in the book as one of those methods!)

The Coverville 500 Concert was exactly a week ago, but I'm afraid the past week of fallout is casting a dark cloud over what was really a good time and an amazing experience for me (and everyone else who attended). The concert, which was the culmination of the previous ten months of my life, was what I consider to be a success, and I'm worried that the current issues, which I'm taking very seriously, are getting out of hand and threaten to be the only thing that people remember from that night. The issue stems from a performance by Richard Cheese and Lounge Against The Machine at the end of the...

I've finally been able to recover from the Coverville 500 show Friday, and the several months before that I spent putting together all the pieces to make the show happen. For those of you who weren't able to make it, I would qualify it as a success. I'd estimate that we had an attendance of 550 to 600 guests, and the sole technical issue that came up was the fact that I couldn't record the audio of the show in stereo. Here are some other notes from the show: 1. It would take too long for me to mention all the people to whom I got to talk, but if I seemed hurried or frantic and didn't get as much...

Among all the excellent merchandise that I'll be selling/giving away at the Coverville 500 concert, is a set of six poker chips, each showing a different performer at the concert. The back of each chip shows the Coverville Las Vegas logo, and commemorates the event with the date and venue. (click the image to see it full-sized) Because of the cost of producing these chips, I'm limited to 75 sets available to sell, with 15 of them already pre-ordered. Each set comes in a protective plastic tube (which will hold 25 chips total, so you can collect other chips from the casinos you visit), and sells...

Coverville on the Marc Germain show (7/29)

I was on the Marc Germain internet radio show last night. Great interview with a top-notch professional whose been in the business for years. It's more of a radio-style interview, and there are other guests on the show, but it's worth a listen. If for no other reason than to hear me scramble to answer questions that I wasn't prepared for!

Coverville interview on Lifehacker
| Sat, 26 Jul 2008 23:36
I had the honor of getting to speak to Kevin Purdy of Lifehacker this last week, about how I do Coverville. Lifehacker is a terrific blog that focuses on using technology, logic and organization to make everyday life easier and get things done. I've been a big fan of the blog for over a year, finding out about them through sister site Gizmodo. It was a fun interview to do, with more of a slant on keeping up with email, organizing a huge music collection, and getting through a typical day. I thank Kevin for the opportunity to talk about that, and for the really amazing comments being left under...

The Richard Cheese Superfan Funclub
| Thu, 24 Jul 2008 14:39
I just joined the Richard Cheese Superfan Funclub - and if you're a fan of the man and his music, so should you. If you join now, you get the next three albums, Viva La Vodka, Lavapalooza, and O.K. Bartender way sooner than the general public (and I'm not referring to the 80's ska-pop band). Plus, find out how you can get your name SUNG by Richard Cheese, and/or added to the liner notes of his next album. Click here to find out more.
