Title: Excellent new idea!!!
Post by: lfmusiclover on April 01, 2008, 09:11:01 PM
Folks, I just hatched an excellent new idea for the forum. I'm not going to go into detail right now, but lets just say it involves getting our beloved artists to come and chat with us here at the forum.  :twothumbs:

FYI, I was standing in the shower with a head full of shampoo when the idea came to me.  :rofl2: :rofl2: :rofl2:

I hope they come and join! Artists can sometimes be nifty about chat forums.

I think it was the shampoo! I think it was something about the part where you massage it in.  :lol: :rofl2: :rofl2:

I was gonna suggest something like this awhile back, and even putting the artists in their own "member group". But I never did, because I figured that artists would bet billions of PMs per day of song requests, and such. IIRC, Mark Krurnowski joined TWCC back in January 2007. Maybe you should ask him to join.

Mark is on my list.  :twothumbs:

I'd love to give the musicians their own member group, but I'm not sure it can be done.  :(

As for the PM issue, I made a rule that states that artists may NOT be PM'd. You aren't allowed to PM the STAR Team at TWCC, so I feel the same should hold true for the artists, unless they explicitly state that they wish to receive PM's.

Post by: lfmusiclover on April 03, 2008, 01:13:35 PM
To update you guys, I have heard back form the following artists, all whom have said they will visit:

Ken Gregory
Doug Markley
David Becker
Art Ruprecht
Ralph Diekemper


Don't confuse this to mean that they are joining. That is not necessarily true. They just said they would visit.
Title: Re: Excellent new idea!!!
Post by: Localonthe8s on April 03, 2008, 01:14:57 PM
Very cool! Doug Markley did request for his music to be in the TWCT music store,am i correct?
Title: Re: Excellent new idea!!!
Post by: lfmusiclover on April 03, 2008, 01:15:30 PM
Yes, you are correct.
Title: Re: Excellent new idea!!!

Doug Markley is on YouTube. He once messaged me thanking me for using one of his songs on an emulator video.

Everyone: Feel free to contact artists yourselves if you wish. I've only contacted a few myself, so it would certainly be a huge help!

I'm a little bummed that Ryan Farish is the only artist (of those that I contacted) who decided to join us.  I was hoping at least a few others would. :(

Maybe I can some more to get in touch with. I can't imagine why they would tell me they are checking the place out, yet not join.   :wacko:

T Starks asked me a few weeks ago if there were any good TWC forums that he could join. I pointed him to TWC Classics and Here. :yes:

You guys should try contacting some of the artists with harder-to-find music, like Jeanne Ricks, Mark Krurnowski, Mick Mahan, Leon Ayers, Steve Glotzer, etc.

I'm kind of scared of contacting any artists about joining. I don't wanna make it sound like I'm some kind of spammer. :no:

Post by: Localonthe8s on April 07, 2008, 06:50:57 PM
I saw Joe Loskota is a band member in Myspace. I'd like to contact him too but i will need to add a friend request to the band first. Also Patrick Yandall and Jeanne Ricks and Boney James are my friends on myspace too.

You don't sound that way. You sound like a guy who wants an artist to join a TWC forum that your4a member of.  :sunglasses:
