Finally! My Book! - 06-15-2005, 02:00 PM


Hey guys,

I don't kow how many of you are into concert photography, but I have a book coming out at the end of July specifically related to the Texas Red Dirt Music scene. It is just a coffee table book of pictures. This has been a dream of mine for some time, and a few really lucky things happened that made it a reality.



Anyway, pre-sales of the book started yesterday. (I have to sell 100 before the printer starts...long story, but part of the deal)

Pretty exciting stuff for me, and hopefully it will all work out.

You can see some info on it at http://texasreddirtphotos.com/book/ if you are interested.

Thanks,
Todd

Heck, I'll sign em'!

Alot of people are putting a request in the comments section when they order. I wish it was shipping sooner too...trust me. But I had to do the pre-sales deal with them to save me a ridiculous amount of money. If I agreed to pre-sales, they made a much better deal with me.

Plus, the main audience for this is the Texas Music Fans obviously and they are pretty used to pre-sales because they pre-order CD's.

Lonestarmusic.com is pre-selling the book for me too.

I persoanlly hated the pre-sales idea, but the $$$ difference it makes in my book deal were just oo much to pass up.

We might get it out before that, but we had to pad it. Either way I am really excited about seeing the first one in my hands!

THe book is out now by the way. It has been a pretty cool thing so far. The only problem I have now is that I have a garage full of them! haha

LoneStarMusic.com is also selling them, and many of the artists are selling them at their shows. Pretty neat.
