HELLO! HELLO! So as you can see in my new pictures I'm rocking out with a band these days! And not just any band.... I am jamming with the 3 coolest guys on the east coast! Tom Hopke, Brian Spitzer, and Spencer Cohen! Make sure you check out my shows and catch the next full band show so you can rock out with us!!
Let's see... a little about me.... I'm about as down to earth as they come, and in love with life. I love waking up with a smile on my face, sounds goofy, but try it sometime...when you open your eyes in the morning...just smile....and see how the rest of your day goes.....Hardly a day goes by without me noticing something small and wonderful that makes me happy to be alive. I have been blessed with my voice and if you are as lucky as me to have found what makes life worth living I celebrate with you...and if you have not found it yet...keep searching...you have the whole world waiting to be discovered!
I love what I do. Not because I'm in the spot light, but because when I'm singing, my body and soul is taken to another place, and I just can't get enough of wherever it takes me.
I would like to pay special thanks as always to Mary Mathers for so kindly updating my page when she has a break from being inked in the tatoo parlor!
what an awesome page and your music is such a blessing look foreward to when you come back to columbus~~what you are doing is so wonderful... and such an inspiration... blessings to you my friend....
I’ve been a music journalist for more than 10 years. Over the years, many artists and managers have asked me what the best way to break into the European music market is.
Here are some things you can do:
Publish artist press releases, news, and tour dates to the CountryHome Forum on MySpace, http://groups.myspace.com/CountryHomeMagazine , CountryHome Forum is part of CountryHome, http://www.CountryHome.de , Germany's Premier Country Music Online Magazine. Everything you publish to the CountryHome Forum will be published in my weekly Newsletter which has over 80,000 readers.
Send me CDs and DVDs for review and set up an artist interview with me. All reviews and interviews will be submitted to the magazines I'm writing for. More information for which magazines I'm writing can be found at http://www.MySpace.com/ChristianLamitschka
Upload artist videos to http://www.MyVideo.de and http://www.ClipFish.de . Both websites are like http://www.YouTube.com and uploading videos is free. The websites are completely in German. If you don’t speak German and need assistance, I will help you open an account and upload a video for 25 Euro. Each additional video upload for the same artist name and at the same video website is 10 Euro.
If you have more questions about the European music market or about any of the information I send to you today, please contact me at Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de too.

On heavy socializing days I like to give helpful advice
So I'll share tape #1 from my series
"How To Become Cool Over Night"
"Flirt Work Exercise"
Before putting in flirt work
Jog in place Do several jumping jacks with loud hand claps Clear throat with goat like sounds After witnessing all of this If, she is still around Prepare to let some clever words out Put on bifocals See the words, correctly Really focus And speak "Hi How are you doing?"
Now consider yourself an expert Who should never have to seek advice on this subject again Proceed to next tape "Getting the first date in"

Would you send a kiss to save the world To keep someone, maybe you, from dying in it?
Would you send a kiss To save your favorite girl?
What would you kiss that you would put on this list?
We all think we know what we are fighting for Until something hurts us Then generations later Still asking ourselves Was it worth it Seem to go through the same thing We can wake up from a bad dream With screams Or when we reach for a kiss For that we open our eyes And say I want more of this And we go through that day Longing for that kiss Could you imagine saving the world With a simple kiss list?
I kiss my pen And it bleeds So that maybe We wont be leaves Blown away In a win-less storm
I kiss my friend's bliss And they say they love me Year after year of this Loyalty Inspired by spirit kiss
Would you send a kiss to save your favorite video game?
You name What would make you aim your lips And send a kiss
Hendrix kissed the sky Would you kiss the child in you You hide the cries And truly say I'll be OK Today I'll make myself my own baby And kiss me bliss 'Til no pain can stay
And once I'm entrenched In the practice of this I'll see clearly What I love And put that on my kiss list
I once blew a kiss to hate And watched hate become confused And wait
What is on your wish list? That you consent to bliss kiss? A kiss for your business? For your dreams? For your favorite sports team? Sports hero? Your favorite car? I'm blowing you a bliss kiss So maybe you'll put something On your wish list Hoping maybe we'll build up enough bliss To offset all war With a simple kiss
Call me a fool But some things are worth writing for
Today I would like to let you know about two print magazines in Germany I'm writing for.
"Living Line Dance", reporting about line dance and country music, and "Folk Magazine", reporting about folk and country music. The magazines are high respected in Europe. They offer you a good chance to publicize yourself in Europe and Germany.
For more information, please contact me at MySpace or send email to Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de with the headline "Advertise at Living Line Dance and Folk Magazine".
