I have several blogs that I work on with a small group of contributors.
They are not related directly to music except in the sense that they are creative endeavors.
(the latest post on this one is actually about music but that is just coincidence...)
I would welcome any feedback or comments on any of these.
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.
