Second Life
Clayton had a lot of fun playing SL Woodstock on 17th August.
Although the time was 7pm in Second Life, it was actually 3am in real life! So there was a LOT of coffee on the go. This didn't stop us from having a fantastic time though. We were so impressed with those of you that stayed awake to come and support us.
The early morning partying didn't stop the audience from having fun, wearing party hats and waving sparklers provided by Mazzie in honour of Ricks birthday! With only the occasional cry of 'Anyone got any ProPlus?' from Ian! LOL!
Road To Elmersville
We have got together with Karen Swanson to create a MySpace page dedicated to the Elmer family, their history and the story of Elmersville.
The CD is still for sale from the Clayton website with proceeds going to the Salvation Army. You can read about why the Salvation Army was chosen on the Elmersville page.
Because this CD was made under the name Callaghan we are continuing to sell it under that name while stocks last. We feel a strong commitment to the Elmer family and to the Salvation Army and feel it would not be in their best interest to discontinue sales of Elmersville.
Please note that the vocal performance on the songs of this CD are by Georgina Callaghan
Lindsay Armaou - (vocals/co-writer)
Rick Mitra - (bass/co-writer/producer) Lulu, Marti Pellow
John Peppard - (guitars/co-writer) Garth Brooks, Trisha Yearwood
Geoff Dunn - (drums/co-writer) Van Morrison, Incognito
Leon Spicer - (violin)
Charles Bowyer - (backing vocals/guitar)

I know that many artists from North America don't have their music videos uploaded to German video websites. The most popular websites are MyVideo.de and ClipFish.de. That means your European audience does not have the chance to find them.
I understand that most of you don't speak German and are not able to upload videos because of the language barrier. If you would like me to upload your videos to the German video websites, please let me know.
Thanks
