A Life Less Superficial, or Why I'm Quitting Social Networking

DateFriday, December 3, 2010 at 8:40PM

Friendster gave way to Myspace.....Myspace was mowed over by Facebook. There will always be someone trying to improve on this concept but for artists, I think that you get lost in the shuffle no matter the host. I wanted to have a site dedicated to my work as a musician. A place where friends, fans, and family could come to check in on me without all of the silly distractions. I wanted to be able to promote my shows in a proper place without getting lost in a sea of weekly "event invitations".  And thanks to the work of the lovely and talented Lindsey J. Markel (soon to be Lindsey J. Gates-Markel), I have just that. Enjoy.
