Re: Free online lessons and trumpet video blog...

My webmaster, Joe Auty, and I have sorted things out, and all of the videos are back up and running again.

I'll be adding two more later today. Stay tuned.

BTW, I had had some inquiries about DVD's. That was never the plan, but this is the 'plan B' I am considering.

Time for some explanation, though I'm sure most of you understood this. I SINCERELY wanted to give something that MIGHT have some value to the trumpet world - some free-lesson demos of what I do that works for me in an effort to help other players who lead "dual career life-styles" like I do. When I comment about the CD sales, I was simply hoping a few people might consider simply buying my CD, "No Man Is An Island" in return for the free and unlimited use of my lesson videos. Yes, this was a promotional stunt but an honest and sincere one.

The problem is that many folks, in spite of my attempt to be clear on the web site, were expecting a DVD to be available for purchase. This wasn't my original intention. I didn't think there would be a demand for it, so I figured I'd just give this all away as a perk. I might have misread that, so I'm going to look into possibly doing a DVD.

The clips I have up now, and the ones to follow this weekend will be left up on a semipermanent basis, though. I'm not going back on my word here.

Thanks for your patience.

Nick
