Juanita Family goes down a storm for charity!

Afternoon, all,
just got back from three hectic days at a trade conference, doing what's necessary to pay the rent! The big-hearted individuals who attended arranged a charity auction on the last night, at the function dinner, and amongst the items pledged was a Juanita Family and Friends cd.
The bidding went up and up and the cd sold for £35 ($70). What a result!
In all the auction raised £3200 for a charity sending buses from UK for use in the tsunami disaster area. Well done all!
Now I gotta go get some sleep!

Check out Mojo June 2005

Hi guys,
writing this blog listening to the incomparable Bob Harris on Beeb 2 (Hi Bob!) with the news that Fotomoto's Model album gets a big 4 stars in the review for Mojo by our friend Matthew Collin.Look for a link soon on the site www.audleymusic.co.uk
Got the new Robert Plant album, Mighty Rearranger, today, and together with Bruce Springsteen's Devils & Dust, and Juanita Family & Friends, these cd's have had no rest, I kid you not! The neighbours are considering an ASBO.

Media prices to die for

Hello all,
just finished talking to my little bro who runs Media Weeble. Fantastic prices for all pc media, printable cd's, dvd's - just the thing for home manufacture of your music, which of course, is what we recommend and encourage at Audley Music.
Check out the website at www.mediaweeble.co.uk
If you'd like Audley Music to take charge of your medium or small run cd manufacture, including the graphics, print, marketing, and promotion, drop us an email, mike@audleymusic.co.uk, and let's see what we can do to help.
If you live in UK please don't forget to vote tomorrow, or think it doesn't matter - every single one does.
What will the political landscape look like Friday morning? Who knows?

Man vs Machine

Hi,
sorry I missed yesterday but it was my birthday and we can all be forgiven for the excesses that occur.
One of the presents I had was a pedometer which measures how many steps you take in a day, and to be healthy you are supposed to take 10,000.
Of course, it then becomes a challenge to show the bloody machine you CAN do it!
On Sunday I did 9,600 and today I did 14,600. Quite a good average!
One of the other presents I was given was a bottle of 12 year old single Islay malt whisky and I'm off to sample that in a sec, to counter the good effects of all that excercise.
Looks like the Juanitas will definitely be in UK November time now, and I'm still waiting to hear about Fotomoto but I did get a nice long email from them.
Peakz album is in the final stages and will be available soon. Watch this space.
Bye for now from Bank Holiday Britain.
Michael
