This is probably what The Bloggess would categorize as Spectacular Marketing Fail. Or maybe Exceptional PR Blunder. Anyway, when you’re trying to sell something, or in this case, give it away for free, remember the first rule of sales: Know Thy Audience.

Happy John Daker Day
This post might be a little stream of consciousness. It’s Holy Week, I’m tired, and last night I was exposed to one of the best/worst internet videos of all time.
TODAY! Heritage Craft Fair & Fundraiser
Happy Saturday!
Today Geoff and I will be taking part in the 43rd annual Heritage Craft Fair. This fair is a fundraiser for the Heritage Chorale.
The Facebook event is here. There is an entry fee as a part of the fundraiser, $4.00 general adults, $3.50 for seniors and free for children up to 12. All on one level with easy handicapped access.
We’re about to depart for Framingham. We’ll be there 10am-4pm today.
See you there!

October and November concerts for you!
There has been a lot going on in the last few weeks. I’m still sorting through the luggage, photos, and general wreckage of running around like a decapitated chicken. But!

So, I’m setting aside the work that needs to be done to share the details with you. Please make sure to see at least some of these, they’re going to be great!
