The first (1) is, in case you haven't already heard, The Beanstalk Library will be headlining IOTA Club and Cafe this coming Saturday night, February 19. If you have missed the last couple shows, this is a great chance to see our new 5-piece lineup and hear music from our second album, which we'll be recording this year. Joining us will be Hans Chew from New York, as well as our hometown friends Light Pillars. Both are great and we're confident that you'll want to get to the club by 9pm to see the whole evening of music. The cover is $12 and as always IOTA is 21+. (More all ages shows will be happening soon.) Facebook users can RSVP here.
Secondly (2), we wanted to give everyone an official head's up about something many of you have no doubt already experienced evidence of. Coinciding with our great new lineup and gearing up for record number 2, we are in the middle of majorly overhauling our internet presence. Some of these changes and additions have already happened and some are still to come, but there are a few things we wanted to draw your attention to.
We are now at Reverb Nation, a site that will hopefully make it easier to coordinate our profiles on different social networks and deliver news, updates, blog posts, etc. to all of our fans at once, no matter how they normally keep up with us. There is other fun stuff, like a detailed list of upcoming shows complete with Google-powered maps of venues. Feel free to check it out by clicking on the above link and if you have a RN profile, become a fan.
Soon, in fact, we will be using Reverb Nation, instead of the current program, to send these very e-mail updates. You will receive a notification when this has happened, but you don't need to do anything to remain on our mailing list during the changeover.
Furthermore, The Beanstalk Library has finally entered the limitless frontier of (drum roll, please) Twitter. If you are a Twitter user, please follow us in order to receive all sorts of updates, insights, and probably some super secret surprise insider info, as well.
If all of this is as bewildering to you as it is to us, don't worry. Very shortly, everything will be linked and widgeted and shackled at the ankle to everything else, so you'll be able to find it all and not miss a thing. Some parts of the new layout are still very much under construction at the moment, especially the MySpace page, so we appreciate your patience.
Thanks for being so good to us. We're glad you like our music. If it wasn't for that, there would be no reason to pull our hair out over online promotion. We love you all and look forward to seeing you Saturday night. It's going to be a good year.
Love always,
The Beanstalk Library
