I got the idea when my monthly royalty check came in from CDBaby this month. Apparantly, there are people out there who don't require a tangible CD. They prefer to just download a song or even an entire album directly into their iPod. My question: What happens if your iPod "crashes" like a harddrive? Is it possible...to lose...all those songs you paid for?
Well anyway, I have so many cool songs from "before my Golden Arrow days." What if I provided them for download under an assumed name, a virtual artist. This "artist" would never have to tour, press and purchase CDs, or hire office staff to ship them and manage inventory. The songs are not bad, just silly or fun or pretty - what I call "time wasters." Some people like to waste time, so why not on these songs? I could finally make some good use out of all that work I did when I was younger, instead of keeping them just archived for old time's sake. Hmmm...If you ask me nicely, I'll let you know the assumed name so you can sneak a listen at some of the old music I used to do. Some people have been curious about my music past. It might be fun.

Place me on the list of people asking nicely for your virtual artist name. Please.
Hm. Nicely, nicely... I can do that, I think...
Milady, would you grace me with the favour of membership in the august company of those who, in all likelihood, can ask for song access more nicely than I could?
:) How's that?
Hello Donna,
It was such a gift to hear you sing at Christ the King Parish this past Divine Mercy Sunday in Oregon. I have been a fan of your sung prayers ever since I moved to the Portland area two years ago. It would be a blessing to listen to other songs you have done.
Thanks again, your fan in Christ Jesus,
Michael Jensen
I'll let you know when they are ready - a few months?
I am crushed...I did not know...will you let me in on the secret now? : )
