Open Mic Scout Podcast

I thought I’d consolidate the last couple of blog entries into one neat and tidy one.Here’s the news:

• The First Edition of the Open Mic Scout Podcast, Recorded at Zilla Sake on October 23rd, 2007, is online.  The sound quality rocks for most of the songs, sans some minor technical difficulties.
• You can subscribe to the Podcast with this link: Subscribe to Podcast
• The Podcast, as of Sunday, October 28, 2007, has been downloaded 184 times!
• You can stream the Podcast by clicking the “Listen Now” button to the left (it will open a new window so you can continue to listen after leaving this site.)
• The artists on the first Podcast: The Crow’s Feet, Sallie Burgess, Kevin, Matty V, Piepo, Cameron, Warra Hugh, Heather, Grace, Mathew Gilbert, Elliot King, Kayla.
• We have a logo which I designed.  I am not an artist.  Please, if you are an artist, design one for me (similar dimensions please) and I will love you forever and probably give you a special gift (said gift yet to be determined.)
• If you want the original multi-track recording your song, please email me.  If your an artist, you should already have my email address from the multiple emails I sent out.  I’m not charging for these recordings per-say, but I would a donation of any size would greatly help me keep doing this project (currently I am doing it for free and without ads.)
• Please, if you like what I am doing, donate using the pay pal button I soon will put up. Any amount will help, from a dollar to one hundred, every little bit helps.  This podcast is a lot of work.  To give you an idea: it took 3 hours of setup and recording per podcast and over 14 hours of mixing/mastering to post the first edition.  I love this work, but I need to bring in some money to keep this project alive and updated regularly.
• Comment!  I would love the artists and listeners to be active in the blog!  Artists: Tell us the names of the songs, or the stories behind them.  Or if your name was misspelled.  Listeners: Tell us your favorite songs!  Comment on the sound quality of the podcast.  Tell me you love me!  Really, I could use all the encouragement I can get at this point.

The next 2 recording dates are as follows: Tuesday at Zilla Saké on NE 18th and Alberta around 7-8ish (dress as your favorite dead rock star!) and Wednesday at the Hawthorne Theater (its my first time running sound there, so it might be a little touch and go.)Thanks for all the music and all the support!Your friendly neighborhood recording engineer,E Einowski
