FREE DOWNLOADS (4 CD's/52 songs)



Just wanted to stop by and give everyone an update. Since completing this blog for my Crazy Like A Fox album, I have released 2 more CD's; Folklore & Superstitions (2013, 15 songs) and The Hollywood Blacklist (2015, 17 songs). Both albums have done very well and I am even receiving FM radio airplay here in Tampa Bay at WMNF 88.5. I even took a chance and auditioned for NBC's The Voice in January, 2014. I didn't make it to the live rounds, but I did very well. It was a very fun experience! As of this writing I am currently in the process of writing/recording my 6th Independent album release The Fools Mask. If all goes well, the new CD will be released in 2017. I am considering starting up another blog, to keep everyone up to date with everything. Before I go, I have some huge news to share! As my way of saying Thank You for your friendship and support, all of my music (4 CD's/52 songs) is available as free downloads at CD Baby. 


For those of you who haven't had a chance to hear my last 2 album releases, I have a treat for you. I am including the CD sampler video for my most recent The Hollywood Blacklist CD. This album is easily my most professional and groundbreaking release ever. It even includes a few notable guest appearances, which include world class saxophonist Butch Thomas (Sting, Lenny Kravitz, Jaco Pastorius). The CD sampler video contains 30-50 sound clips of all 17 songs and plenty of theatrical/freaky photography and effects to keep you well entertained along the way. The video is my 3rd most viewed video at You Tube. It ROCKS!! 


I also recently released a 2 part Foxman Theatre series which includes live commentary, live performances, breaking news and much more. Part 2 centers around my 2 most recent album releases; Folklore & Superstitions and The Hollywood Blacklist. This video is a great way to get introduced to the albums and it is also very fun and entertaining (I am an animated person). 


I hope you enjoy the videos and all the free downloads. Thanks Again & Keep Rockin!!

FOXMAN UPDATE (2-15-14)

I had totally forgotten about this blog that I had written which documented every step of the release of my "Crazy Like A Fox" Cd. I just rediscovered it today (2-15-14). It was a very important moment in my life and the blog does an excellent job of sharing the thought process and amount of time/work that it takes to do what I love to do. Some of the personal additions are also entertaining. Well to give you all an update on everything, my 4th Cd "Folklore & Superstitions" was officially released on April 1, 2013 and the feedback has been massive. I have managed to reach a whole new level of global fans to which I am very thankful. The new Cd features 15 songs (2 are remastered versions of "Sweet Adelaide" and "Same Old Troubles"). I have also been releasing many music videos, which are all worth your time to check out. In late 2014 I am going to begin working on my 5th Cd, titled "The Old Weathered Cog". It is hard for me to document everything I do, like I did in the past with this blog, but you are more than welcome to join me at my Facebook page: www.facebook.com/FoxmanMusicHome My home website at www.foxmanmusic.com is also a must see. I have worked very hard to get this site to where it is now and I guarantee you will find it to be one of THE coolest Independent music websites on the planet :) Thanks again for all your friendship and support. Keep Rockin !! ~ Brian Fox (Foxman)

Thank You

THANK YOU TO ALL MY FAMILY, FRIENDS AND FANS !!!

Some will say that Rock-n-Roll history is all about raunchy parties, drugs, decadent behavior and a wide assortment of very easy women. I think the accepted phrase has always been "sex, drugs and Rock-n-Roll". In one way or another, I suppose we all have a sweet tooth for a little good old fashioned debauchery. I am sure that the temptations will always come my way, but I am very thankful that I have enough years under my belt that I will always know what is really important. Ultimately ... behind all the illusions, fantasies and distractions it all comes down to good family, close friends and the ability to write catchy songs. If the listeners can relate to your tunes, then they will become fans. When I started this project back on January 1, 2010 (New Years Day), I really had no idea how everything was going to turn out. With no excuses, and utter determination, I set out to create one of the most unique, groundbreaking Cd's to ever be released. With the release of "Crazy Like A Fox" (on October 1, 2010), I accomplished this goal. This blog captures the entire process from start to finish. I hope you enjoy it !

My "Crazy Like A Fox" Cd was officially released on Friday October 1, 2010. It is available for purchase at http://www.foxman.etsy.com and http://myworld.ebay.com/foxmanmusic2005 . Cd lyrics are available at my home website www.foxmanmusic.com

UPDATE (2-16-14): All songs from my "Crazy Like A Fox" Cd can be heard in their entirety through the tune player below.

The Finish Line !!!

This will be my final post for my "Crazy Like A Fox" blog. I will return to finish the post once the Cd is officially released. If all goes well, I am hoping that this will be around the first, or second, week of October. Just in time for Halloween, and the holidays !!!

8-30-10 (6:00 a.m.) I had to keep riding out the momentum wave. I just spent the last 3 hours adding the "Crazy Like A Fox" Cd lyrics to my website (www.foxmanmusic.com). The site now contains the lyrics for all 32 of my songs (from 3 Cd's) and 1 poem. Once the Cd is replicated, I will upload a photo of the front cover to my site. There will also be plenty of links to my art studio (www.foxman.etsy.com), where the Cd's will be made available for purchase. I am going to charge $15 per Cd, which includes the S&H fees. The in person charge will be $13.

9-16-10, I just gave my final approval for the Cd to be replicated. It will take about 2-3 weeks until the copies are available through my art studio. I have everything completed with the copyrights, and my application to join ASCAP has been received. All the Cd lyrics are available at my home website. Once the Cd's arrive I will send out 2 copies to set up digital distribution through ReverbNation. This will allow me to sell my tunes as downloads through iTunes, Amazon, Rhapsody and others. The Cd lyrics are already available at my home website (as advertised in the Cd sleeve). I think I pretty much have everything finished. All I have left to do is to finish up with ASCAP (once I am accepted), and that's it. Yes !!!

9-18-10, YES ! I just got accepted to ASCAP !! All I have to do is register my works through my members access page and that's it, I'm good to go !!

9-21-10, I am going to have to do some editing to my various websites to include the new Cd release. This won't be overly time consuming and it will give me something to do while I wait for the copies to arrive. I am happy that I have chosen to keep things nice and simple. The Cd will only be available through my art studio (www.etsy.com). I will need to make sure that all of my websites have a link to this site.

9-23-10, I've pretty much got the websites up to date. I'll just have to make a few adjustments once the copies arrive. I'm still waiting for the ASCAP members package to arrive. For fun, I was working on some Graffiti art at my brother Tim's house today. So far I've spray painted a Rays logo and a Bucaneers logo on the wall. They wanted to try something different on the walls in their rec room, and I was up to the challenge. I can't say the work is anything professional, but it is a lot of fun.

* An interesting aside: I received a friend request a few days ago from American Idol at My Space. Today I received a friend request from Ryan Seacrest. I am starting to wonder if maybe an acquaintance of mine sent a Cd to them ? It's flattering to think about, but I don't have the vocal range to compete on Idol. Besides, I've already released my own Cd's. If this is what's happening, then I am already starting to generate some notoriety. Yikes !!!

9-27-10, I just received word from Jennifer at Total Media that my Cd's will be available by Thursday, or Friday, of this week (today is Monday). This means that my "Crazy Like A Fox" Cd will be officialy released on October 1, 2010 ! I have also figured out how to register my songs with ASCAP. I am very happy because this will give me a project to work on while I wait for the Cd's to arrive. The timing of everything is absolutely perfect !

9-30-10, I didn't realize that tomorrow (Friday) is actually October 1. I have a feeling the girls at Total Media will be giving me a call, at some point, to let me know my Cd's have arrived. I had one little detail to take care of with my Pay Pal account. I needed to add my confirmation code to validify my credit card. About 3 weeks ago I authorized Pay Pal to make the $1 charge to my account to generate the code. The 4 digit code then appears on my credit card statement next to the payment info. Well my statement arrived today, I entered the confirmation code into my account, and everything is good to go. Once again, the timing is perfect. I have also decided that I will also make my Cd's available through ebay. I think this will end up being a wise because most people probably aren't very familiar with Etsy. With both outlets, Pay Pal is going to be an important element for the transactions. I'm glad to have this minor detail taken care of. One other decision I have made is that, besides selling the "Crazy Like A Fox" Cd for $15 individaually, I will also sell a set containing all 3 of my Cd's for $25. I am also going to deactivate all the artwork in my Etsy site, so that the Cd's will be the featured items. Once it gets closer to the holidays I will reactivate the artwork.

10-1-10 (4:20 a.m.) Dang, here it is, the day that my "Crazy Like A Fox" Cd gets released. Since I have to be at Total Media around 1:00, you would think I should be sound asleep by now. Wrong ! I decide to stay up until the wee hours of the morning getting my websites ready to. You Tube and My Space are completly finished. I also have the profile bio's at Etsy and ebay completed. My priorities after I get home tomorrow afternoon will be to update ReverbNation, IMRadio and Bebo. This will only take about 1 hour. After that I need to take a photo of the new Cd and one of all 3 Cd's together, so I can start stocking my shops at Etsy and ebay. Once I get this completed it will be time to start posting the Cd's official release on Facebook, Twitter, My Space and Bebo. At ReverbNation I will send out an e-mail to all of my fans announcing the release. I think it sounds like a pretty good plan of attack for day #1. (11:00 p.m.) I picked up my Cd's and am totally pleased with everything. Total Media did an excellent job. I've pretty much got all my websites up to date with links to etsy and ebay. I sent out as many emails as possible to announce the release of "Crazy Like A Fox". The only setback I have encountered today is that my home website www.foxmanmusic.com is down. It's kind of a bummer, but I'm not going to let it ruin such an awesome day ! I sent an email out to the Yahoo's Web Hosting team and I'm sure they will get back to me when the weekend is over. No matter what the situation is, I will get the site back up and running. The negative is that I may have to totally redo everything, including rewriting all the lyrics. Oh well, it will give me something to do. Well, that's it for this post !

* Everything is alright with my home website. It ended up being a temporary glitch that occured at Yahoo over the weekend. Everything at foxmanmusic.com is now up to date and ready to roll ! I am very thank ful I don't have to type in all those lyrics again ... whew !

UPDATE (2-16-14): All songs from my "Crazy Like A Fox" Cd can be heard in their entirety through the tune player below. Please make sure to also visit my home website at: www.foxmanmusic.com

Copyright

As with my previous works, I will also copyright this Cd through the Library Of Congress. I believe the appropriate form to use is Form SR (for sound recordings). I think the fee for this is around $75, or so. Technically, once a work is completed it is already copyrighted. I just like the extra protection of formally doing so through the Library Of Congress. I will also do a poor mans copyright and send a copy to myself ... one can't be too careful these days !

7-11-10. I did read up a bit more on copyright forms. I wanted to make sure that I was doing everything correctly. Basically there are 2 forms that apply to recording artists. One is Form PA, which copyrights a particular performance of a song, and the other is Form SR (sound recording). For what I am doing Form SR is the correct form. This form serves 2 purposes, it copyrights both the sound recording and the underlying works. What I will need to do is to send the completed form, 2 Cd's (as they will be heard on the Cd), copies of my lyrics and the $75 fee to the Library Of Congress. I will send everything certified mail so that I will have a return receipt confirming that the package was received. It takes a long time for the material to actually be processed, but the copyright is technically valid once it has been received. The post date on the certified receipt, along with the return receipt, will serve as the official date of copyright. Once a work has been copyrighted, the author has the right to post an official notice on their work. In my case, I am going to use "2010 FOXMAN MUSIC. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED". To the left of this caption will be the official copyright symbol, which is a circle with a small "c" inside. My official notice will appear on the back sleeve of the Cd, and on top of the actual Cd disc.

8-25-10, I went to the local library today and made copies of all my song lyrics. I also printed a copy of Form SR and got it filled out properly, and legibly. All that is left now is to finish the masters (only 2 left, will be done within 1 week), burn down 2 copies, and mail out the package to the Library Of Congress. I will also burn 1 extra copy which will be sent to myself as a poorman's copyright.

8-29-10 (8:35 p.m.) YES !!! I did it ! The "master" copies for the Cd are completed. I put together both copyright packages today, and I will mail them out tomorrow. Well that's it for this post. All that is left now is to join ASCAP, and finish the Cd replication.

8-30-10, I did a 3 1/2 mile walk today (in the heat), to my bank and then a postal outlet. I am proud to say that the copyrights, and ASCAP application, are in the mail. I saved all the receipts for my records and made copies of everything. Technically, the postmark on my certified letter receipts will serve as the official day of copyright for my release. All I need now are the signed return receipts to cement the process.

9-8-10, Just got back from my California vacation. Before I left I had received my poor mans copyright package through the mail. So, that part of the process is finished. I am a bit concerned that I haven't received the return receipt from the Library Of Congress copyright. I'll be patient, there was a holiday Monday (Labor Day), so maybe that's why it hasn't found its way yet.

9-10-10, I am going to have a barcode added to all my Cd copies. This will give me extra copyright protection and assist in Cd sales. Thanks Jennifer (Total Media) for bringing this to my attention.

9-11-10, I still haven't received the return receipt from the Library Of Congress copyright. Well, that's the postal service for you ! Good thing I did the poor mans copyright to cover my ass. The other thing is, if they did receive it and the receipt is lost, the canceled check will show up on my bank statement. Like a return receipt, this will also confirm the copyright. I will definitely be keeping an eye on my bank statements.

9-12-10, Yes !!! I got the return receipt back from the Library Of Congress. Now everything is official and I don't have to worry anymore. I will still save the canceled check statement when it comes in. Well that's it for this post !!!

UPDATE (2-16-14): All songs from my "Crazy Like A Fox" Cd can be heard in their entirety through the tune player below. Please make sure to also visit my home website at: www.foxmanmusic.com 


ASCAP or BMI ?

I am definitely going to join either BMI or ASCAP. Before making my final decision, I will need to spend some time researching both of them. I will use this post to share the information that I have learned. Both groups are designed to protect songwriters rights and to allow for the collection of royalties from air play. Hearing my songs play on the radio would be an absolute dream come true. Being able to also collect royalties from this would be amazing !! From what I have read so far, the fees for joining both groups are very minimal (around $35, or so).

6-25-10, I researched both and I think that ASCAP (American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers) sounds like the wiser option. They were founded in 1914. It is entirely owned and operated by its own members. They provide full financial disclosure to their members and the general public. Royalty checks are sent out 8 times per year. The payments are made about 6 months after the performance quarter (BMI is 7-8 months). The cost to join is a $35 processing fee, and that's it, there are no annual dues. After that, ASCAP collects 11.3% from the members royalties for operating costs. I still have to research a few more things, but what I've read so far sounds pretty good. The 11.3% is cheaper than what iTunes, Amazon and others deduct for their services. What's cool is that once I join, and submit my music, they do all the rest. All I have to do is sit back and collect the royalties. If I start gaining notoriety, I will already have myself set up to start collecting royalties from airplay. How cool is that !!! Any way I look at it, I have to join this group.

8-25-10, I printed out copies of the ASCAP application. I will probably still register online, but it is nice to have a physical copy that I can review beforehand. I have only one week left until my California vacation, and there are only 2 songs left to master. My priority before the trip is have the Cd completely finished (masters) and the copyrights sent out. Once I return, I will join ASCAP and visit Total Media to have my work replicated.

8-29-10, I guess I am on a roll ! Last night I finished up the final touches on the graphic design. Once I finished, I saved everything down to a memory stick. Today, I finished up the final "master" copies of the Cd. I also got both of my copyright packages together. Since I have to go to the post office tomorrow, I figured I might as well add one more letter to occasion. This letter is my application for ASCAP ! It will cost me an extra $30 to register by mail, but at least I won't have to deal with my credit card company. I am very proud of my decision to join ASCAP, and I look forward to becoming a card carrying member.

8-30-10, I sent out my ASCAP membership application today. I don't foresee any problems, at all, with my application being accepted. I imagine that there will probably be a letter of acceptance waiting for me when I return from my vacation. I will keep my fingers crossed anyway.

9-8-10, Just got back from my California vacation. My return receipt from ASCAP was here waiting for me. Now I'll just have to wait and see if I'm accepted.

9-18-10, YES !!! I just got accepted to ASCAP. The confirmation arrived through my email address. I guess they are also mailing out a welcome package with my membership card, and #. Once I receive this, I will be able to register all of my songs on line.

9-28-10, OK, I'm an idiot. I didn't need to wait for my membership card to register my works. I already had my membership #, I just needed to enter my full name correctly and come up with a new password. That is all done now and I am ready to roll. Since it is 2:15 a.m., I have decided that I will start this project when I wake up. I just received an update from Jennifer at Total Media that my Cd's will be available for pick up by Thurs, or Fri (today is Monday). The registration of all my works with ASCAP is going to coincide with the release of the "Crazy Like A Fox" Cd perfectly. (6:45 p.m.) Well that wasn't too difficult. All of my songs (even the new ones) have been submitted for registration at ASCAP. All in all, I have a total of 32 tunes that equal up to 2 hours, 7 minutes and 30 seconds of music ! My shortest songs are "Won't Be Home Again" (2:40) and "Hard Times" (2:45). My longest songs are "Simple Minded" (5:26), "Halfway To Memphis" (5:24/Songs From The Gallery Cd) and "Oh Desiree" (5:23/Songs From The Gallery Cd). All I have to do now is wait for ASCAP to process the song registrations, and I'll go from there. At some point in time, I'm sure that I will have to send them copies of my 3 Cd's for their records. I also still need to receive my membership card. Now that this is done .... Go Rays !!! Price is pitching, we're playing at home and are 1 win from clinching a playoff birth. We also still have a shot at winning our division and home field advantage throughout the playoffs. At this moment we are neck and neck with Minnesota and the Yankee's for that honor. Go Rays !!!

9-29-10, Yes ! The Rays are in the playoffs for the 2nd time in 2 years. We are 1/2 game up on the Yankees and 2 on the Twins (5 games to go) for home field advantage. Tonight is the last home game of the season and they are giving away 20,000 free tickets. I was thinking of going until I saw the lines of fans, outside the stadium, on the TV. I just got done checking my ASCAP page, where I was surprised to find that all my songs are registered already ! All that is left now, is to wait for my membership card to arrive and this post will be complete.

UPDATE (2-16-14): All songs from my "Crazy Like A Fox" Cd can be heard in their entirety through the tune player below. Please make sure to also check out my home website at: www.foxmanmusic.com

Cd Replication

This post will be for the Cd replication process. This is the point when the actual copies are made. This process will be a bit costly ($1,500 for 750 copies, or so). Once I get to this point the Cd is completed in its entirety (graphic design and recording). Despite the cost, I will be very happy when I get to this point. I think it will probably take about one month, or so, for the copies to be finished. So, I will need to have the "Crazy Like A Fox" Cd totally finished by about mid September. At the beginning of the year, I set my target release date for this Cd to be around Oct-Nov. If all goes well, I will be back to this post around early September.

7-4-10, How cool is this ... I completed the graphic design for my "Crazy Like A Fox" Cd on the 4th of July ! This day also marks the end of my 2 month storage unit rental, which means that all my vocals are officially completed.

7-11-10, I have just finished recording the last track on the entire Cd. All that is left now is the mastering ! Talk about timing, my studio monitors just arrived a few days ago.

8-29-10, YES !!! According to my first post, I am about 2 weeks ahead of schedule. I finished up the "master" copies of the Cd today. Last night I put the finishing touches on the graphic design. After all these months of hard work it all comes down to one memory stick (graphic design artwork) and one Cd ("masters"). In 2 days I going to visit my brothers in California for one week. As soon as I return, I will call my friend Dan at Total Media and make arrangements to replicate the release. YES !!! I can see the finish line ! Tomorrow I am sending out both copyright packages, and my application for ASCAP membership. The Cd replication is all that is left to do. (10:00 p.m.) I sent a message to Dan, letting him know that I will ready to replicate the Cd, around September 9th (Thurs), or 10th (Fri). This will all coincide with week 1 of the NFL ... YES !! I have 2 fantasy teams ready to take care of business. This will keep me occupied while I wait for the copies to arrive.

9-8-10, I just got home from my California vacation. Tomorrow I will give Danny a call at Total Media and set a time to meet him. I still have the radiator problem with my jeep to deal with, so I may have to use my parents car to drive there. One way or another, I am going to get this done.

9-9-10, I brought my jeep to a local garage today. Hopefully it is just going to be a hose, or the radiator. I also called Total Media and made arrangements to come in tomorrow afternoon (going to use my parents car). Danny is out of town for 4 days so I am going to work with Gary, the company owner. Before I go to bed tonight, I will have to listen to the Cd one more time and make sure everything recorded alright.

* Yes ! The NFL season starts tonight (Saints vs Vikings). The last time I watched a Saints/Vikings game it was the playoffs this past January. At that point in time I was just starting my Cd. Now, here I am 9 months and 14 songs later, getting ready to have the Cd replicated ! I am also proud to say that I have 3 fantasy football teams ready to take care of business.

9-10-10 (12:00 a.m.) I am listening back to my Cd, to make sure everything recorded alright. While in California I played the Cd for my brothers. The only problem was that I had to use the DVD player, as a result I was at the mercy of the speakers as they were (no EQ that I could adjust). To cut to the quick, the Cd didn't sound very good because the speakers were loud on the low end and the high mids were obsolete. I do have a bit of a husky voice, so the speakers didn't compliment my work very well. Anyway, I am really enjoying hearing the Cd through my PC. Everything sounds good again ! (5:00 p.m.) I had a very good day today. I went to Total Media to start the Cd replication process. Gary was gone for the day and Danny is on vacation, so Jennifer and Sarah helped me out. Everything with the graphic design looks like it is going to be alright. Not having the actual disc design in the right format wasn't a problem at all. The specs on everything else should be perfect. I am also going to have a barcode added to the copies (on the back panel), for resale and extra copyright protection. Once they have checked the audio on the Cd and put the graphic design together they will email me a copy for my final approval. Once I give my approval the Cd is sent out for replication. I was happy to hear that the replication will only take 2-3 weeks, instead of 1 month. The total cost to have 1,000 copies made is going to be $1,440 ($60 below my projection). I left a $700 up front payment with Total Media, the other $740 will be paid when the copies arrive. The other good news is that my jeep has been repaired and the cost was only $282. The problem wasn't the radiator, is was actually a worn out o ring in one of the hoses. All in all, I spent $1,722 today, but it was money very well spent.

9-13-10, I talked to Sarah at Total Media today. As it ends up I saved all the graphic artwork in the wrong format. I had everything in the Bitmap format and it needs to be changed over to JPEG. I just finished converting the pictures and saved them to a memory stick. The girls were just leaving the office, so I will have to make another trip over there tomorrow. Whew ! Just a minor setback.

9-15-10, I made it to Total Media around 1:00. The JPEG version of the pictures will work out just fine. The resolution was still low at 90, so Sarah had to enhance them all up to 300. I think what happened is that I have my camera set to the bitmap, low resolution, format. If I wanted all the images to be 100% perfect I would have to go back and retake all the pictures (in JPEG) and do all the editing all over again. I decided to go with what we got. The images, as they are, are good enough (about 90% perfect). The slight blurriness adds a bit of a mystique to the overall graphic design. I was also thrilled to find out that Sarah is a classically trained musician, who can play multiple instruments ... and plays in a symphony ! I told her that if the occasion arises where I need to put together a band, I may be in need of her talents. I am definitely serious about this. When I go to pick up the Cd copies, I will make sure to set up a day to hang out with her and check out her work. Sometimes life has a funny way of making things happen.

9-16-10, OK ... I just gave my final approval on the graphic design, so the Cd has officially been sent out for replication. I feel like I just handed off the baton and now the entire project is out of my hands for a while. The final prints of the graphic design looked perfect. Sarah and Jennifer did an excellent job centering the design for the top of the disc, so that worked out well. I'm not going to worry, everything is going to turn out excellent !!!

9-19-10, I am totally enjoying all this down time while I wait for the copies to be finished. Thankfully there is a lot of good TV going on to keep me company (NFL, Rays games, Boardwalk Empire, Dancing With The Stars, etc). The Rays are battling the Yankees for home field advantage and the Bucs have started the season 2-0. The season premiere of Boardwalk Empire was excellent. It's going to be a very memorable series.

9-27-10, Jennifer just notified me through an e-mail that my Cd's will be available for pick up on either Thurs, or Friday (today is Monday). It's so cool of them to keep me updated. When it is all said and done the Cd will be completed and available for purchase by the first day of October ! This means that I finished the entire project about 3-4 weeks ahead of schedule ... how's that for delivering the goods ! From start to finish the entire process took 9 months to complete (and it is all captured here in my "Crazy Like A Fox" blog).

9-30-10, YES !!! My Cd's are completed and ready to be picked up. I e-mailed Jennifer and told I would be in around 1:00 tomorrow to pick them up. Once I get back home I will have to spend some time getting all my websites up to date, with links to purchase the new Cd (Etsy and ebay). Friday October 1, 2010 is going to be the official release date for my "Crazy Like A Fox" Cd. I did it !!!

10-1-10, I picked up my Cd's this afternnon ! Everything turned out perfect ! Sarah and Jennifer rock ! I ended up getting an extra 75 copies, bringing the total to 1,075. The total cost ended up being $1,390 (another wise investmebt). We forgot to include the barcode in the graphic design so it isn't included on any of the copies, which is alright. The barcode will just have to be added during the 2nd printing (hopeful thinking). This will make the 1st printing more distinguishable. Thanks again to the girls at Total Media. Well, that's it for this post !
