Forget the Alamo

The Alamo Drafthouse, that is . . .

Specifically, forget about my hopes of playing "The Ballad of Joss" at the Alamo Drafthouse's Firefly marathon this September.

I can't believe they turned down my offer--I didn't even ask them for money. It's like no one will respect or value what I'm trying to do.

Mrrrrr.

If it's any consolation I tried for three years to get some sort of attention from TheOneRing.net after I Middle Earth CD came out. They've consistently ignored us.

Ah well. Sorry

I'm sorry Cedric! I know it seems like no one really gives a s***, but I promise many people do. The world is full of lasses fair attitudes and to see you actually *do something* to fix what you feel is broken is very moving. And I'm not trhe only "jenny" who thinks so ;-)

Thanks, Jenny

Well, to be fair, the owner of the Alamo was very kind in his note turning me down. He mentioned that he liked the songs and was hoping to get us there for some other event. I wrote back suggesting that we could play for a Serenity movie event if he decides to have one, and he said he was negotiating that with Universal. Considering that Universal has been really supportive of grass-roots efforts to promote the film, I figure there's a good chance they'll get to do an event. Whether we get to play it or not . . . Well, we'll see.

"It's like no one will respect or value what I'm trying to do."

Except the, wait. what was it? Oh yes, 3,000 plus people who have listened to it already, and the loyal fan base who hangs on to your every word.

Silly man..

Be safe on the road.

Awww...seems like that would be a great venue.
Perhaps we should start another e-mail campaign...seemed to work for the hand kissing!

What exactly did they turn you down for - the shindig thing? I can't believe they'd turn down free related entertainment for the movie itself. Dang - my respect for the Drafthouse just dropped several notches.
