Music Success In Nine Weeks #3

The Perfect Pitch
So here we are in Week 2 of Ariel's magical world of Cyber PR, which is all about "The Perfect Pitch". Luckily for me I actually hired a PR man last year who wrote me a couple of bios and I now freely borrow random sentences from those whenever I need to summarize myself within one sentence, however I still went through this section and filled out the three lists which consisted of:

• Artists people think I sound like.
• Artists that influenced me.
• Feelings and vibes that I want my music to convey.

After a couple of attempts at using these lists to create my "perfect pitch" I decided that the one's I'd already been using from the pre-written bios were actually better, so I just used one of those instead, it reads:

"Taking the ramshackle charm of Guided By Voices at their most melodic and adding a boyish enthusiasm that tips its hat to both Weezer and Matthew Sweet."

I said it out loud a few times, and it sounded cool and made me think "I I hadn't heard my music, I'd probably really want to based on that sentence!! I am great!! Grrrrr!!

I then promptly went round the Internet and began plastering it about, if you'd care to check out Aidy.com for example you'll see it proudly displayed on the front page, and next time I make some postcards or flyers, I'll stick it on those too.

I did attempt to test it out on the "fabulous website" 15SecondPitch.com that Ariel suggested, unfortunately after churning away for a couple of minutes it finally came back with:

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80040e31'

[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Timeout expired

/new/createuser.asp, line 276

I tried a couple more times and got the same thing. Annoying, but hey ho, at least I've got my little daily notebook of achievements to get me through ;-)
