The internet is an incredible tool

Today I spent so much time on the internet, visiting a variety of site. Who knows what's going to come of all of this but it's kind of exciting to see the potential of all of this work; the possibilities are endless.
I completed loading my 4 cds into my store at payloadz.
I'm in the process of uploading all of my cds to last.fm
and I'm working on uploading my cds to discrevolt.
I think that's enough for today.

I sang for a half hour....my voice was stronger than ever today. For my husband to compliment me (as a prof musician..he can be a brutal critic)...was amazing.

my new website

I've spent the last week redoing and updating my website and what a task it's been! I still have a long way to go. I added my eventful.com Demand site....see it over to the right...if you're interested in doing a show in your area, let me know!

I also set up my donation sites at Amazon and Paypal.

It's really an amazing process. I'll have to add this to my Consulting business. I can think of so many people and business I know who would benefit from what these sites.

I still have to finish setting up my payloadz store and then set up a few more things...but now I must go to take my 3 dogs for a LONG walk.

Sweet dreams...

To Sing or Not To Sing

I went to a party today......a few people asked me to sing...was going to try out a new song...but it just didn't feel right. Perhaps I was foolish not to take advantage of singing anywhere, but I have to trust my gut.

Susan Santiago is going to write with me...I'm so excited!

I NEED LYRICS....

I need lyrics...it's not my forte to write them, but I do know a well crafted one from one that's not and I do know how to polish it...my expections are fairly high....and of course the better I know the lyricist..the better my music (I write to the lyrics..not the other way around).

It's frustrating to me....not to have a stack of lyrics with which to work.
I might actually have to try writing lyrics again after all of these years....it's not a pleasure for me as is composing the music...but it may end up being a necessity if I can't find someone.
Any suggestions?!

I'M BACK....

I'm back....after a 10 year hiatus. I'm writing songs again (as opposed to instrumentals) and I'm even thinking about singing live again....how I used to love getting up on stage...I lived for it. Now, my nerves are getting the best of me. I know all the components that go into performing...the do's and don'ts...how to grab my audience...but it's been so long..I could get up on that stage and open my mouth and nothing comes out (I remember that occurring the first time I got up on stage) ....my vibrato, uncontrollable...my nerves shot to hell; It's like starting all over again. I also want to build up a new repertoire. My songs from the 70's need a dance band..and my 80's songs still get requests after all these years.... and I do love the songs in Italian I did in the 90's....but I need something new. I just want to sit at a piano and play....simply for the love of it.
