Lazlo's Corner

I spent the last few weeks working on something that could have been awesome, a sort of BlowUpRadio.com Jukebox of New Jersey music.

Sadly, several attempts to make this work have ended in failure.

Many hours worth of work, with nothing tangible to show for it.

But I'm not giving up.

For now, I am tabling that idea (though if anyone has any thought on how I might be able to make it work, I am open to listening to them).

I am working on other smaller scale ideas to promote local music in other ways.

As of this month, I've been doing BlowUpRadio.com for 16 years. I've watched bands and venues come and go (and in some cases, come back again!)

I've seen good times and bad, both for BlowUpRadio.com, and for the local music scene.

I know I can't change the hearts and minds of people who are more interested in hearing what's popular, than the amazing local music happening in their own state.

But have I given up?

Fuck no!

Sometimes I think I believe in the quality of some local musicians' music more than they do.

And that's why, even 16 years into doing this, I don't rest on what I've done in the past, and I don't give up.

I keep searching to find new ways to promote good music...and I have some amazing things I'm working on for 2017!

For even failure helps spur on new ideas, and one of these new ideas I hope to start rolling out in next week's newsletter.

Stay Tuned!
