ITS BEEN A WHILE
-----------------------------------------------------------------
It's been a while since our last correspondence. We were going to
send you all a newsletter wishing you Happy Christmas, and a
Happy New Year, but we noticed our own email account being
divulged with mail, so we felt we better hold off to give you
some breathing space.
It's hard to believe it's 2010. I expected more flying cars,
hoverboards, and hydrateable pizzas:-)
We think 2010 is going to be an amazing year for music and with
that, BalconyTV. Already there are a number of great and nutty
developments...which you can read all about in this mail. We hope
you enjoy it.
If you have any comments or feedback, just drop us a line.
On with the show!

HELP 'BALCONY TV' GO TO NUMBER 1
-----------------------------------------------------------------
This really is a bit of a mad way to start the year.
Once upon a time, Balcony TV Dublin welcomed a singer songwriter
to play a song on the balcony. His name was Niall Boyle.
Niall enjoyed his Balcony experience so much that he decided to
write a song called 'Balcony TV' ! Not only that, but Niall
recorded the song, and to much fanfair released the song as
single with a big party in his home town of Drogheda last
weekend. (Yes we think he's slightly barmy too!)
Now Balcony TV is used to welcoming artists who are desperate to
sell CDs, singles, EPs, you name it. Now we know just how it
feels. We are hungry for chart success!
So baring in mind the chart deadline is Thursday midnight, we
need you all to buy the single, in order to beat the mighty
Boyzone to the top of the pops.
(That's some good campaigning right there!)
So if your in Ireland, you can download 'Balcony TV' by Niall
Boyle from downloadmusic.ie by texting 'music 4279' to 57501.
Make sure you download the song, or your purchase wont register.
Then tell your friends...and get them to tell their friends...and
so on and so forth...
For those outside Ireland who are just as curious...Balcony TV is
available on ITunes.
Enough of this shameless campaigning...
GREAT NEW SHOWS

RATINGS SUCCESS
-----------------------------------------------------------------
BalconyTV had it's 9 Millionth Video View on Christmas Day, which
was nice timing.
We expect to hit the magical 10 Million Video View very soon:-)
When that happens we'll shout all about it.
BALCONYTV NASHVILLE, AUCKLAND, NEW YORK and MILAN on the way!
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Well we hope so. We are quietly confident that BalconyTV
Nashville will be here very very soon.
After that, Auckland, New York, and Milan balconies are looking
good.
If your interested in launching BalconyTV in your own city,

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Thank you to our sponsors for all their help...especially
Duplication.ie [http://duplication.ie], who are good for all your
CD and DVD duplication needs.
And for bands and others visiting Dublin, if you are looking for
a cool place to stay, may we recommend Kellys Hotel
[http://www.kellysdublin.com] as the place to be. The hotel has
the rocknroll edge most places in the city lack, and best thing
is, its close to all Dublins main music venues. Just call, and
quote BalconyTV, and they'll give you a great deal.
And that's it from us.
Keep Watching The Balcony!
