I expected blogging to go away just like many other “trends” and just like many other tech-skeptics. but I agreed that it was a relatively lucrative marketing platform, so I made a promise that day to find someone or some group of people who would go out onto the World Wide Web and flood the listening ears of the people of earth with Venice’s music. that evening, I had some brief discussion with Luci-lu about what blogging really was – and discovered that she knew just about as much as I did about the subject – and spent a bit of my time scouring the Internet for information about this trend. less than two days later, it turned out that I would become that someone we were looking for....and YOU would become that group.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5052349864268911042&quot;

Playing in L.A. is definitely different from any other place i&#39;ve played throughout the country. And it&#39;s really awesome to know that the same love i get from Philadelphia is the same love i get when i come back to L.A. So, i thank you, Fluff &amp;amp; Fold, Now Hear This and their listeners, 3hm Ent., Flashrock, and all of you who have shared many evenings with me and some afternoons. Much Love and see you on April 17th at The GiG on melrose. By the way, i have a little surprise for you guys at show. NO, IT&#39;s not Money! But it&#39;s just as good.

Context of the sit-down is set to appear in the upcoming February 22nd edition of &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.musicconnection.com/&quot;&gt;Music Connection Magazine&lt;/a&gt;, and will appear online about a week following the print publication release. Martinelli spent time discussing more than just business and the success of his top client, break-out U.S. national recording artist Venice Maki. A display of support for the works and success of its unparalleled and all-access coverage of Maki, the savvy Keynote head dropped a well-deserved shout out to thiswayisout.com! It is hoped that TWIO will appear in the article&#39;s site listings which accompany the column -- it would mark the first placement of the site in prominent print and online publication.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;THANK YOU to TWIO listeners for their continued support and faithfulness to the cause!! Our success continues to sprout new directions and achievements -- including the soon-to-be-announced official launch of &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;now hear this&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt; -- and has steadily helped to build the listener base of Venice Maki.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stay tuned for the February 22nd release of &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.musicconnection.com/&quot;&gt;Music Connection Magazine&lt;/a&gt; (at most news stands and music stores), and right here for more news, commentary, pictures and links to all things Venice Maki.

Rock&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://deloromusic.com/april/main.htm&quot;&gt;April Diamond&lt;/a&gt;, the dance floor was not lacking in willing rump shakers. at the door, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.salvationarmy.org/ihq/www_sa.nsf&quot;&gt;The Salvation Army&lt;/a&gt; Band and the venue box office took in toys of many shapes and sizes for distribution to Southern California’s least fortunate kids this Christmas. on the V.I.P. landing, the likes of &lt;a href=&quot;http://imdb.com/name/nm0000093/&quot;&gt;Brad Pitt&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://imdb.com/name/nm1259103/&quot;&gt;Shin Koyamada&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://imdb.com/name/nm0079894/&quot;&gt;Brad Beyer&lt;/a&gt; joined in support of the event, mingling about as the night unfolded.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;all in all, the event was a grand success! and &lt;em&gt;now hear this&lt;/em&gt; got its grass-roots feet wet, successfully seeding the event and achieving all of its pre-determined goals, leading the event producers to express their utmost appreciation and respect for our efforts and look forward to future collaboration.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;until then, enjoy the holiday season by reflecting on all that &lt;strong&gt;YOU&lt;/strong&gt; have been a part of with us, all that &lt;strong&gt;YOU&lt;/strong&gt; have accomplished this year, and all that &lt;strong&gt;YOU&lt;/strong&gt; plan to accomplish in the coming year!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/6119/2714/1600/880397/happyholidays.gif&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;CURSOR: hand&quot;
