media media media
I'm at work and looking for time to kill--as I'm caught up with my work--
or wait now that I think about it maybe I'm not... ok, work in a second,
now that I've committed to this.
I've been busy running around today doing lots of different media things.
All to advertise 'Landscapes' and the show we're doing Sunday (which I talked
about in my last post, and which we've been rehearsing for... everything is
sounding great... it's been fun with Tyler and he has even influenced us
to change up 'Cowboy Song' just a bit, so be sure to check out the show!)
so now, I suppose this post is either a) telling you about all of this media
or b) advertising the media that I'm doing...
so perhaps this is media, being media, for other media.
(as a media student, I'm not sure how I feel about that.)
first, I went in and talked with Nicole (I'm pretty sure it was Nicole)
at the Gazette, quite quickly, about the show on Sunday--with more of a
'Habitat for Humanity' angle and less of a 'concert' angle as I'm used to. Which was nice I suppose.
Then I went out with the Gazette's Corey Standford to take some photos across
campus... he had smile in the photos... it was a bit cold, but fun.
...after checking out the photos back at the Gazette I wandered next door
to see if Alicks or anyone else was at CHRW... she was, I could hear her voice
down the hall. We had a nice chat, then she asked me if I wanted to do an interview
for Local Music Month at CHRW, I said "yes" and she got Casey Wolfe, who was chatting with us, to do the interview... putting both of us on the spot. Casey was very cool
and asked some nice questions about arranging the songs, along with the standard questions you ask a musician... I suppose... (this interview should air later some time...) after that we recorded a radio ID... which was fun. Casey edited together different parts of what I said to make something much better than what I said... I can't upload audio to this... so you'll just have to listen to CHRW more and more to have a listen.
so that's media three and four... (if you count interview, photos, interview, radio id)
(for five) TONIGHT I will be live on CHRW's 'For the Folk' with Alison Brown doing an interview and performing some solo versions of some songs on 'Landscapes'...
that will be at 8:30 tonight (Wednesday)
so CHECK IT!
if you missed it, go listen to it later!
I think that's it...
hope all is well,
and see you Sunday.
lots of love,
-Sam.

Show Jan 17th / Tyler plays guitar
Dear friends,
let me first invite you to join me on Sunday January 17th
at the Spoke at UWO for a performance I will be doing with
all of my friends.
The show benefits Habitat for Humanity UWO and is called Hands Up for Habitat.
the doors are at 8pm
and it's free to get in, however there will be donation jars around so that
you can help out in anyway you can!
very exciting.
so.
Sunday, Jan 17th
The Spoke at UWO (inside the UCC)
8pm
free admission, donations as pay what you can
exciting.
please comment with questions
or email
or go here
ALSO
Truly one of my best friends for a long time, Mr. Edward Eaglesham,
is traveling back to Europe, and will no longer be playing guitar with us.
This is sad because Edward is a great friend and great guitarist.
In brighter news, our good friend Mr. Tyler Heffernan, who plays guitar in A HORSE AND HIS BOY, will be joining us for all up coming future shows. And of course we're all very excited about that, as Tyler is also a great friend and a great guitarist.
So lots of love to Edward for his future, and lots of love to Tyler for his future with us.
lots of love to all!
see you Sunday!
