Faster, Pussycats: SHILL! SHILL!

[maps_or_guitars]

You know how I've been yammering on and on about the Rock Band Thing, and my song on it? It looks like Peer Review is proceeding - 58% done when I last checked - and so I've some hopes that Paper Valentines will be live and available prior to the Very Topical Date of February 14th. Once it comes out, I'd surely like people to actually buy it - mekkasimian has sweated on it, and we both would love to see some pin money come in off it; also, if the Rockbandification of Paper Valentines proves successful it occurs to me that he could conceivably make some real scratch charting other bands' songs. As for me, every pair of ears hearing one of my songs is a good thing. I'm in it for fame, baby.

To help push things along, I'm making Paper Valentines free, at least for a while. If it's tacky, it's tacky. I want as many ears on this as I can possibly get, and I want to spread it as far as I can. I'll be twittering it tomorrow morning.

So please, SHARE it. Post it forward. Hotlink to it all you like! Here's the link:

It'd be cool if you included a link to my Amie Street page as well - it'd be nice to get some action there on my other songs. (Incidentally, Paper Valentines costs all of 29 cents there, and will.)

There's the link to the demo of the Rock Bandified "Pape" on YouTube:

And there's the site for the Rock Band Network itself, though the song isn't accessible to anyone but reviewers yet:

Maybe I'll have something else to post about one of these days. I sold a map today!
