Sent out the requests for reviews of Butch's Chicago shows and WOW! got a reply from the NYTimes! Not just the computer-generated "Thank you for your recent inquiry....", but a follow-up email from an assistant to an editor. I know, I know, it's not much, but he did say the Cultures editors would look at the request. So, fingers crossed! Although Bibi used the NYTimes email as a model for the other two, each was crafted with a view toward each publication's ethos; think I hit points that each will (hopefully) respond to.
Bibi feels good about the work put into the due diligence for review requests. On other fronts, gave away another Butch Walker card yesterday to G who sold me my new phone, the Sony Xperia. (No complaints, so far.) She seemed amenable to at least watching the Synthesizers video on YouTube. Didn't have any of the Mixtape cds with me (what a bad fan I am!!), but did give Mixtape IV.2 to one of the profs today. He's from Georgia so he was intrigued by my recommendation of Butch, interested to see how another Georgia boy is expressing himself.
No pictures of Bibi exhausted, so inserted one of Hendrix.
You get the idea.
Am curiously fatigued by all this fan activity, although in a positive way. Butch is busy in the studio--GREAT NEWS for all of us--so there's much anticipation in the Butch fan-world. Maybe he'll play some new stuff at the upcoming shows?
