Zox:
Zox rocked my day with not only a keychain, but a button and a bumper sticker as well. This marks keychain number 10. Out of 70 queries that's not a bad success rate I would say.
Thanks Zox!

Zox Rox and I'm Not Dead

Not dead, just busy with a real job now.

Zox:
"Hamilton,
Thanks for writing! I apologize for the delayed response, but we’re on a lengthy hiatus from touring and I haven’t been checking my band email account very frequently. I remember our York shows very fondly (along with our evenings trying to find something to do in town after the shows), and it’s nice to know that you’ve been keeping an eye on us too. And I do remember sending you the soundbite for your project — hope your prof was impressed :)
We’re spread out all over the place at the moment, but we’ll get a keychain in the mail to you as soon as we can — good luck pursuing the record, and rock on....

I'm Back

Between going to an out of state wedding over the weekend and starting a brand new job on Monday, I haven't paid much attention to this project lately. I haven't sent out an new queries and I haven't heard back from any of the old ones. I still plan to keep this project going though, at least until I reach 100 queries. It just might have to be more of a weekend thing from now on.
