We have people for that. We are those people. Also sympathy for the postman.
I forgot how much 'stuff' there is to do with putting out a CD.
I still have several days worth of video from our last tour to cut and upload oh yeah and we're doing a live version of Everywhere feels like home next week I have to finish some video for. Did I mention that? I didn't, did I.
You know why? I am in Logistics Land. I hear tales of an age where someone would say, 'No, don't risk a paper cut, 'we have people for that'.'
Of course in the age of the self propelled musician, we are those people.
we are those people
Sounds like a brilliant new Stephen King Premise, to whit:
'A band, releasing an album, finds themselves transported to the universe of...the Mail Room'
I say Thankyou Frank, our local Haberfield Postage Agent because he is the BOSS. He's been sending out our stuff for OMG 8 years. He knows how to tag'em, bag'em and get them there, when I can't remember which form is the customs form, or how to lick a stamp.
We both comiserated today that the days of the CD are numbered, that so much communication has gone digital and that we may be sending less and less stuff. 'Putting me out of a job' he says mirthfully, but there's a truth to it.
Sympathy for the postman.
Meanwhile, lick, stick, pack, send. mmm...gluey.
(EDIT: Top Professional Tip - Don't lick the self-stick-pre-adhesive ones, they taste funny)
