Keeping on top of it

So, Launch has been launched, and the people who hear it seem to like it. That's all good. Following that, we really have to wait patiently: we haven't got anyone promoting us to radio or anything like that. The only way anyone's going to hear about The James Rocket is by word of mouth, or dumb luck.

On the other hand, there have been some positive reviews online, and that counts for something. And we've got some podcast-type-airplay from no less a monument than Mike Watt, on The Watt From Pedro Show. (August 29, 2012, as well as November 25, 2011.) So we don't feel completely lost in the wilderness.

So now I'll be divided between three things: 

1) getting tracks to Markleford for album TWO; 
2) finishing up some new songs for album THREE; 
3) whipping 1drummer and 2 guitarists into shape to take the Rocket live. 

It's going to be a busy year.
