Tuesday, April 15, 2008Another Month, Another Update
So there's been a lot going on since the last time I updated. I want to try to keep this website at least somewhat relevant so I'm going to give a brief run down!
As mentioned before, we were getting some airplay on 93.7 WSTW out of Wilmington, Delaware because of the awesome support of you guys, aka our fans, aka the Jets. I'm not sure if it was the force of our fans or the offer of cupcake cones, but Mark Rogers of Hometown Heroes did us the great honor of inviting us in the studio to co-host the show with him on Sunday, April 6th. It was a really awesome night. Our first real experience with being interviewed and really treated like a "real" band. If playing the Fire in Philly didn't make us a legit band, than this did. Right? Anyway, if you missed it and you'd like to check it out, you can download the podcast at http://www.wstw.com/heroes. As I said, we were there on April 6th so of course that means to hear us you download the 04/06/08 podcast. It'll be up until next Sunday, the 20th. After that, it'll be available to download somewhere on this site (hopefully). If you come here after April 20th and you can't seem to find it on here, just email us @ jenell_music@yahoo.com and we'll personally email the podcast to you! It's pretty awesome! You'll want to hear it! We rocked 3 songs live and "Favorite Face" got it's first radio play! And I displayed my sexy radio voice! I didn't actually know I had a sexy radio voice, but everyone (including my own grandmother) told me that I had a radio friendly voice. I admit, I was nervous and I was trying to not sound as annoying as I think I sound, and I've now learned that I should always speak that way, I guess. Or at least when I'm tryin to pick up dates! Hooha! Furthermore, thanks to everyone who tuned in and has given us support these last few months! It's been awesome! Stick with us! We're attempting very fervently to go places!! We were also involved in WCUR's Grand Ram Band Slam competition. I use the word "involved" loosely. The Grand Ram Band Slam is a 3 round competition to win $1000. Well, we made it into the contest and then we made it through the first round and then we very nearly made it through the second round, but lost by a nose. There was online voting and though we killed in round 1, round 2 was a little tougher. Jamie and I put out the word to everyone and pushed hard, but at the end of the day of voting it was 324 to 311. SO CLOSE! And though we didn't win, we did gain a lot more friends/fans and made some new connections so it's not a total bust. And we got to see the Jets in action! People were posting up bulletins and trying to get their friends and family to vote and I for one was definitely blown away by the sincere efforts of others! I know that next time we have this kind of thing, we do have a great group of people backing us. :) And lastly, we finally got a new mailing list! We signed up to ReverbNation and they have an awesome fan outreach which includes a free mailing list! I haven't gotten to use it at it's full potential, but it's new and I'm just getting the ropes!
