Hello, I hope this message finds you well. I am extending an invitation to all my MySpace friends to visit my new site at www. reverbnation. com/christoshatzis, listen to 20 new audio and video tracks of my music (also included in the attached tune widget) and add their email address to my mailing list. Members of the mailing list can also download tracks at that site. Enjoy the music.
We just wanted to let you know that we have a new video up on our profile and youtube page (www.youtube.com/nccosf) of the trailer for our special event on January 19th, 2008: REWIND! Pass the word on!
We also added new photographs - a few of our REWIND guest artists and a few of our guest concertmasters this season.
Enjoyed your Superbowl Sunday gig at the Revolution Cafe. Thought your fans might be amused by a song I just added to my page, "Junk Mail." Poorly-executed math-rock -- and a blog posting explaining the math.
“When Emperor Claudius II decided that single men made better soldiers than those with wives and families, he outlawed marriage for young men. Valentine defied Claudius and continued to perform marriages for young lovers in secret. When Valentine's actions were discovered, he was put to death.”
It’s always good to know why this day was chosen to celebrate love. HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY! Bless your bloody little heart dearie....
(and happy snow day!)
p.s.- I put some vox traxxies up - maria and arise- they're older (non-classical-y) but would love to know what you think!
