Are you hoping for a serendipitous recording/release schedule by one or more of these artists, or do you have a plan to speed up the process?AndréA little of both actually. If the timing is in the cards with a major we'll see, but I also have a couple of other trajectories in mind. I realize fully that most of the path after it leaves my hands will have little to do with me, but I'm gonna do my damnedest to make it happen.Best,Cisko

Hi Cisco,I think it's a great idea... mostly because I did the exact same thing when I re-started my music journey back in 2004. I started an email newsletter to friends and family called "The Tin Ear Society". The idea was that everyone was going to "go along for the ride" and that, for better or worse, everyone would see how things progressed as I floundered or flourished, as the case may be.One thing that I might suggest if possible. The email newsletter is something that people respond to more (because it comes to them), as opposed to a blog (where they have to make the effort to go to it). On the whole, it's an excellent idea and it's a lot more fun if you're taking all your friends and family along for the ride.

This is the kind of thing that I hoped would be part of the process. It's great to have the support and guidance. Thank you to those who have PM'd me with their support and suggestions as well. It is soooooo much appreciated.Best,Cisko

If you decide to add things to your blog, and you do a quick update thru Twitter, a lot of people find out about you very quickly. It's all out there, waiting for you brother.
