I know what you’re already thinking to yourself, probably the same thing I always think: “not another email list!”
Yeah, I hear you, and believe me I feel your pain. My gmail inbox is constantly under attack from the unwanted music list army. I don’t even know how they get directions to my inbox, but they do (and don’t get me started on my facebook inbox!). Which is one of the reasons this list will be opt-in only. The only way you’ll get my emails is if you sign up with me in person at a show OR through my website via this post or alternatively via the sidebar over there ——————————->
So what’s your incentive to join the list you ask? You say to yourself “Forge, I already follow you on twitter, I connect with you on facebook, and I read your (not updated as frequently as it should be) blog, why do I need ANOTHER way to access you and your shenanigans?” Well, that’s a good question (and hey, props to you for using shenanigans in a sentence) and my answer is….FREE STUFF.
Starting with the next cradle show I do, I’ll pick one newsletter subscriber to get free tickets. I’ll send out free CDs from time to time (I’m not talking about mixtapes, I mean actual retail copies of albums). Free entry to my own special events. FREE, FREE, FREE! (this is the part where you picture me as a used car salesman)
Free stuff isn’t gonna hold you over forever, so I promise the content in the newsletter WILL NOT be the same as my blog. And your inbox will not be mauraded and attacked by my newsletter, I’m sending it out AT MOST once per week.
All you have to do to subscribe is drop your name and email address in the form below and hit submit. You’ll get a confirmation message asking if you actually want to subscribe, and that’s that. So join me and let’s continue this movement together. No pressure.
