Which loopers here are regular bloggers? I've read Fripp's blog on DGM and (Crimson biographer) Sid Smith's blog on Blogspot for many years - (I've met both in person quite a while ago and feel a personal connection to them, and I enjoy the way they write), and I've been following Matt Stevens's blog on myspace since I met him on the Norwich loopfest in 2007. I find that there is something about feeling connected to far away living people who I've met personally when I read their blogs, and of course it can also be interesting to see what they're up to. Also, it is nice to get photos, videos, and music in addition to the writing. There are of course many of us who write very occasional news blogs on their myspace pages but often there are too long gaps in between, so there is not enough of a feeling of continuity. I've started my own blog a few days ago (veloopity.blogspot.com) although I'm very busy at the moment, but it felt like the thing to do. Don't know yet how often and how extensively I will post and how long this will be kept up, but it is a potentially interesting thing to do that I have never done before. If there is enough interest we could set up a little looper blog list on livelooping.org. -Michael www.michaelpeters.de
