Up, Up, and Away….

Wednesday, November 11, 2009

Testing, testing. Check, check, one, two. Is this thing on? Oh, it is? Oh good…

Well, here it is. My official jump into the blogosphere. I’ve got my parachute and I’m ready to fly. And since you’re reading this, that means it’s not a total disaster. I’m blogging and someone is out there reading.

David and I are always looking for new ways to include all our amazing friends and fans in our touring experiences. If I can stay on top of posting, this will be a great place to check in on our adventures around the country. From video to show updates, and info about the upcoming release of “Orchid,” I will keep you in the know. For the most up-to-date info, consider subscribing to the blog’s RSS feed.

More than just coming to read, my sincere hope is that you will become part of a conversation and community of people connected through my music. I welcome your comments, and hope you will get to know some of the other amazing people who are vital members of the community that surrounds us. Talk to me, talk to David, talk amongst yourselves. Seriously, we’ll even talk back.

This is the first step in a total overhaul of the K.C. Clifford web experience. One of the major differences in this blog and my music website is sharability. (Yes, I just made that word up.) You’ll see at the bottom of every post, you have the ability to “Share” the posts over a wide variety of social networking platforms. I am humbled by the incredible support so many of you offer, and lots of folks have inquired about how you can help spread the word about my music to a wider audience. The “Share” feature on this blog is the #1 way to do that in cyberspace. Nothing could ever replace the value of an in-person invite from you to a friend, but the internet gives us an opportunity to go “viral” and reach heaps and heaps more potential listeners than ever before.

So, that’s it for now. I’ll post a tour update later. We play in Rockville, MD tonight.. we’re currently barreling our way down I-95 towards my least favorite highway experience in the country: The DC Beltway. Wish us luck, wish us patience, wish us no traffic. Yea, right…

    K.C. — congrats on the launch of a BEAUTIFUL site and your blog. I can’t tell you how sad I was that your Rockville debut was one year too late for us to be front and center. Hope that NERFA is the best yet…

    Kristen… We’ve talked since you’ve posted, but I wonder if you plan to always tell me what your captcha word is??

    Jamie… I guess we’ll just have to come to Belgium. Any chance you’ll be in MD on Jan 11, 2010? We’re playing in Annapolis that night. Miss you.

    Of COURSE we’re headed back to Europe on January 9. Can you slide into town a little early and hang out?

    Yes, as a matter of fact, I AM going to always tell you what my Captcha word is. :) Just because you asked me to.

    Today’s word is “havoc”, how very fitting.
