Re: [celticpromotions] Switchback

Thanks for the heads up about both issues.  However, I wonder if the groups would be more incline to send Marc some music if several fans email them, any thoughts?

Yes. Many groups are more inclined. But it's better to separate it over time. And make it sound like a fan asking. It's all in the phrasing. Like when I'm asking ya'll to send out a message, you can say, "Marc was asking for some great Celtic music, and someone suggested your name. I'd love to hear you in the podcast." Or something like that such that they get the idea that it is a fan interested. But I've found that when a bunch of people do it all at once, it gets annoying.
 
Now is there anyone on the list who is willing to write up some promotional press releases?

I have someone who said she can put one together. So I'll see what I can do. Ultimately, I'd like someone who will really take charge of it. though. Might even be good to put out on with every show or so. I have to think about that though.
