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.

Yo The W.Alan Hall Bandasaurus. I just found out that we're related...and as a special family only present we've made a new song for you called "End of Days" (start doing backflips now). It's an epic instrumental opus to the moment when our ancient Dino relatives saw a large fiery object plummeting towards them. Please come to our page, give it a listen and let us know if it makes you feel like something catastrophic is gonna happen. If the song upsets you too much we will be holding several s support groups (read: comcerts) in the near future. Check our page for locations, dates and times.
I got to see one, count em, ONE, friend while I was there. Certainly hope I am not sooooo busy that when my friends come here, I can't make time to see them!!!!! Ya, I am not having a good day, missing everyone and ready to have Steve home. Just got the word yesterday that my son will be leaving for at least 5 weeks, then maybe moving south and my daughter will be leaving in about 7 weeks to move south. It's gonna be a long winter.
I should have waited to go down there, over 100 and the swimming pool was closed! We went to the Spur to listen to the band, have a couple of drinks and maybe do some dancing, HAHAHAHA, the band!!!! OMG, where do they find these people? Everyone that requested songs got the same answer-----"we don't know that song, it must be country!" Dear God, where did they think they were, Texas!!!!!
p.s. it was great spending time with the family though!
Our first single, Drunk Tonight EP, and our first DVD Drunk Rock Videos DVD is now available for pre-order from the store section of our website. Click the above images for info.
Today I like to inform you, that you can read and watch interviews with your favorit country stars in Enlgish, German and French at http://www.CountryHome.de/Interviews .
Warm regards

If you think that our representives in Congress, who are trying to decide what Health Care is best for Americans, I think that they in a "SHOW OF GOOD FAITH" should drop their currant health care and use the same as they think we need. After all don't we employ them? If you would like to have your voice heard let them know go to (http://fleming.house.gov) IN GOD AND THE CONSTITUTION WE TRUST!!! "W"
