Now... say how "hippie" I am... and how gay I sound... and how I suck... I\'m ready for it. It\'s not unexpected. :disco: It\'s like a one trick pony for this forum.
We need more hippie around here... gay deemsters can\'t even get any love on this forum anymore! (seriously whats the world coming to)
Jeff you gotta play some more hometown shows so I can lazily drag my ass off the couch and over to Pearl St or the Elevens or something. I\'ve actually only seen you with Somebodys Closet and .. pardon my lack of memory, but whatever band you were in at the Hilltown Fallfest in Cummington. I thought you were good after that but in the last few weeks I stumbled upon your solo prog-piano-electronica stuff and let me just say that is some good music to light one up to!
I can easily picture Metropolis taken to redic levels with Bujak on the keys. In fact I have this imaginary ish stuck in my head right now.
I want to go see at Mill Street but wed night is a tough pull for me... verdict\'s still out on that
......
For everyone else... have you checked Jeffs website / myspace, etc etc, livebuj.com ?
Question Part 2::: Have you ever seen somebody so on the ball when it comes to promotion? I work in advertising and I must say I\'m impressed.
......
Last question... are you in the band yet? ??
peace
Don\'t get me wrong, I love this town (city) and I love the vibe here, but electronic music and jam rock music isn\'t given the time of day in Northampton. It\'s all about folk rock, karaoke, indie rock and DJ\'s. I do play in town once and while. You\'ll be the first to know when I book something.
I take what I do seriously. Promo, booking, managing... I do it all. But it\'s the bands that I watch and follow that teach me what to do. The Breakfast, for instance, has a stand down hell of a community of supporters. Lotus, U-Melt and Ryan Montbleau Band... same thing. Like them or not, you have to hand it to their fans and community... they get shit done when it has to get done. I watch their managemen and I mimic every step taken to boost promo and get the word out. So, even though I do work hard at what I do, I have to give these bands, their management and their community almost full credit.
That was Shokazoba Afrobeat Battalion at Cummington Fairgrounds. I don\'t play with many any other bands right now. Somebody\'s Closet once and a while for higher paying events, but I\'m flying solo for a bit. Thanks for your support. If you\'re going to a show in town, let me know... I got to a lot of shows in town when I\'m here.
i believe he is telling me (Face) that i am an oldschool bujak tour kid (as in, a kid who was on an oldschool bujak tour)
it took a me a few looks to decipher that one as well
Well done! :yay: I need a decoder ring.
hey jeff, never seen you live before, but definitely dig the tunes you have on myspace.
Many thank yous.:biggrin: Check out http://www.livebuj.com for live stuff... but back to the Breakfast... keep playing damnit!!!! I can\'t wait for the Southbridge and Albany shows. I\'ll be there for sure.
See you in Albany! (I also happened to see on your tour list that you\'re playing in Amsterdam, NY. That\'s my hometown, and certainly not an expected musical destination!)
I love playing Amsterdam. It\'s a venue in someone\'s big basement. One of my favorite places to play. It\'s a good locale for Utica and Albany heads. I went to the mall in Amsterdam once... it was empty. Seriously... empty. No stores. An Army recruiting center and a post office. I was like... "no shit... they get you when you just want to mail a letter."
