I am… - A different perspective, so he thinks!

Myspace has that certain sort of hold on me!

Well, recently I have started using myspace again, my account is for the club in Glasgow a few friends and I host in The Admiral bar once a month.

Basically I have been using myspace to promo the night and get links at the same time. When I first started out dabbling in club night promoting I used myspace as place to meet and find new bands. After a few months of serious addiction, I realised that myspace as an effective tool of communication was about to fall flat on it’s arse. Of course there was those avid users that believed that it would last forever, never become saturated and was an effective tool for selling (it never was and never will be), they argued and argued with me until one day, one year on, they realised that it was just a bunch of crap! I say HA! to them.

Anyway, back to what I was saying, I have seemed to have become addicted to it again. When I started using it again I had around 1600 friends, I thought to myself these people don’t come to my night and don’t talk to me, they aren’t my friends! So I decided to start a mass culling of my myspace friends, to get rid of the terrible bands, Dj’s, neds and porn. Now I am down to about 600 and still getting requests everyday! I still plan to kill off more so if you are on the Kookin myspace friends list BEWARE!

On the plus side I met a couple of really decent people on myspace in the past few weeks, normal music lovers! Maybe this addiction is not all bad! I will probably follow up on this wee article!

Speak to y’all soon
