Our first CD enters production

For the last month Lynn and Dan Miggler, the designer at Noiseland, have emailing pdf's and corrections back-and-forth of the artwork for our first CD "Blue-eyed Boatman". A week ago she went into their office and sat with Dan for an hour and a half to go over the last major issues.

The last two corrections were sent yesterday and the final proof came in email today. It was OK. - Lynn approved and it's going into production today.

Manufacturing will take about two weeks so it will not be ready for the MBOTMA Winter Festival but we will announce the 'sales' outlets as soon as we know. This is exciting!

As I was writing this, the cover image came in:

Update

Compared with some months, this February has been quiet for the Bob&Lynn band- our church's annual talent show 'The Lynnhurst Home Companion' is coming up this Saturday - we're doing 2 numbers with the 'Hot Dish String Band' (a once-a-year band) and one duet: Louis Collins - from Mississippi John Hurt. Lynn is also doing a number with the Women's Quartet and playing piano for the Choir Number (while Bob just sings tenor).

Lynn is busy working as an accompanist for the Perpich Arts High production of HMS Pinafore. The performances are in mid-March. She's also been the main coordinator with the designer at Noiseland for our CD - it is looking good and she's going in to work out final details next week.

In March, we're performing at the MBOTMA Winter Bluegrass Weekend (8:45pm Sat March 7th) and will probably be playing for TwinCitiesRadio.net (details to come). There is a chance the CD will be done by then, but this is not a deadline - we want it to be as 'correct' as possible. Danebodium is playing at Tapestry for the Contradance on Sat, March 28th. That's probably it until the MBOTMA Homegrown Kickoff - we're starting a major remodeling project any day now AND our oldest son is getting married on May 9th.

We will probably be setting up some Farmer's market dates for the summer (these are usually arranged in March). We also will be doing an official CD release, but given our current schedule, probably not until summer.
