Alas, I got my first blog out of the way. Not sure if it's a masterpiece, but hey, everything gotta start from somewhere. It's interesting to be able to express oneself from writing a blog. Kinda cathartic. So what's next?

Just had another long day in the office. More problems. I guess it is a norm with the music business nowadays. Nobody buys CDs anymore & digital business models sucks (except for a few countries). Everyone wants a piece of the artist managemen
