whyyyyyyfi

i'm at starbucks, trying to use their "free" wifi, and it's not working out too well. chances are this po...

...new location. had to move. connection was way too slow.

Anyway, I feel like it's been a while since a business-related post (business meaning music)...and I think I have a few updates. Hurrah!

1. SIDEWALK CAFE SHOW (New York). Thank you to everyone who came out. It was a lot of fun, and my drummer friend Jon definitely made it awesome. What a cool place. They were so nice! I definitely want to go back.

2. BITTER END SHOW (New York), July 15, 2008 at 8pm. This is the next "public" show I've got coming up (I have a few private functions in between). I'm really excited. The Bitter End has hosted quite a list of incredible people. I know the music industry is changing, and more and more everyone and anyone tries to be a musician. So it's almost like everyone and anyone can play at these places. But I like to think that I'll be one of those that someone else will look at years from now and say "this is cool, LAUREN ZETTLER played here once." A girl can dream, right? Right.

3. HOTEL CAFE HOTEL CAFE HOTEL CAFE (Los Angeles, July 30, 2008 at 7pm. I wrote a letter to myself last year...it was a list of all the things I hoped to accomplish in the next five years. Playing at the Hotel Cafe was one of them. This is a dream come true for me, as many of my peers and mentors take to this stage every night. And it's just so damn cute. Anyway, it's less than two months away and I am getting a head start. I'm going to make this one one to remember. I'm opening for the Bowman's, who were on the incredible Cayamo Cruise I posted about earlier this year. So that's super exciting for me.

4. MALONEY AND FOX JINGLE. There is a great company in NYC called Maloney and Fox. (Maloneyfox.com)....pretty soon, they're relaunching their website, and that website will be full of cool information, including a few songs by yours truly.

5. MTV placements. This is stiiiiiilllllllll in the works, so keep sending out good vibes and thoughts. I'll get there soon, I can feel it.

6. NEW WEBSITE!!!! Almost finished. I'm excited, because it's like a clean slate - nice and simple and fresh. And easy to update. :)

Six is a weird number to end on, but there you go. You can count to ten if it'll make you feel less unbalanced. I won't laugh at you.
