I think CT might be selling the drama a little bit here. I am sure there is some dramatic license and hyperbole going on here. He's working the Social Media angle to get more visibility.

I'll tell you one thing. With the iPhone app, facebook posts, twitter, website, blogs, sponsors, promotions, youtube promotion, free itunes song of the week, free mp3 downloads, $10 ticket prices, record store acoustic performances, open taping policy, open camera policy, making good on $20 pre-sale benefits, vinyl record, Homespun give-aways, and Friends of Live email promotion - you have to say one thing for sure. These guys are working their tales off for this project. They are putting their all into it. They are passionate about this project. They have a genuine friendship and a love for this music. They are proud of it. And they believe in it.

If you can't get behind this project and love them for that effort alone, then you never belonged on a Live fan message board in the first place.

Here's my plan for their future. Get on a tour as an opening act for band that is huge right now. Play tons of dates around their home base. And get on the Howard Stern show.

I think they should tour with Halestorm, they are from York and have recently made it pretty big. I know at least one band member has expressed interest in this and I think it would be a great move on TGF's part. Play shows around their home base with another band that got it's start there and then take in national. I'm sure their fanbases would be similiar as I am a fan of both bands. I'd love to see it happen!
