EMAIL HELL

Its been a while. Sorry.

I'm in email/ myspacing hell. People ask, why don't we have a Bebo, why don't we have a Facebook? (We actually do, we just don't advertise the fact;-)

The reason is, that on any given day I have five pages of MySpace emails to get through. Requests to play are at an all time high at the moment. I like to listen to every applicant before deciding whether to allow them on. Alot of acts are turned down now. This is hugely time consuming activity. Music begins to sound more and more similar. It can get head wrecking.

Then we have friend requests. We get about 20 of them a day. I like to go through them individually and say hello, thus eliminating spammers. Alot of them are bands who are interested in performing too.

After that the actual BalconyTV email account needs to be taken care of. More requests to play, press requests, BalconyTV expansion and acres of spam. I'm worth about 10 gazillion now due to all my relatives in Zimbabwe who have died in plane crashes.

After that, I need to monitor all the comments on the YouTube video pages. With almost 800 videos archived there are alot there.

So it aint all fun.
