Well, it's been a busy week here at blowupradio.com. First, the people have spoken. It appears that everyone would like CD reviews on blowupradio.com, so a new CD Reviews section is now up and running. I will attempt to review a CD a week and post it to that page. Currently there is a review of Where's Mary's self titled EP. Please do not bombard me with requests to have your band reviewed on the site. I wish I had time to do a review of everyone, but there are only so many hours in a day.
In addition to the new CD Reviews section of blowupradio.com, there is another new section called, Ask Lazlo. I get a lot of E-mails with questions about the NJ music scene and I figured others might be interested in the answers. Feel free to E-mail your questions to lazlo@blowupradio.com. I don't know the answers to everything, but I'll do the best I can.
The one question I was asked most this week is, "Do you have time to do CD Reviews on top of everything else?" It's true, I keep myself very busy as is, but I believe in giving the people what they want, and helping to support the local music scene in any way possible. What started out as a little hobby in December of 2000, is now a full-time job for me (in addition to a regular full-time job that pays the bills). But you know what, I wouldn't have it any other way. This is one of the most fulfilling things I have done in my life, and as long as people are checking out the site to learn about the scene, I plan to be doing this.
Let's keep the NJ music scene alive!
