Kings of Leon Concert

Last night Shane and I got last minute tickets from a friend. We had been contemplating going to this concert for months, being unemployed makes you less likely to do expensive things like concerts. But, I am soooo glad we went! It was an AMAZING concert! If you haven't heard Kings of Leon, their story is an interesting one. They are brothers and one cousin, all sons of a traveling preacher, and their songs, while sometimes "mush-mouthed" have some great lyrics and the energy behind their music made for a great concert. We saw them at the Orpheum in Boston and I had never been in there, it's a lot like the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall in Portland and it made for some great sound. The Kings would be great at the Pavilion next summer, but I will leave that to their manager to figure out. :-) To learn more about Kings of Leon, check out their history on Wikipedia!

Being an independent marketing consultant in Boston

For those of you that haven't heard... I am unemployed. I have to say I feel full of life, like when you listen to a great band for the first time, speaking of (check out the latest Kings of Leon, it's inspiring!!!) I think I want to become my own boss and try my hand at being an independent marketing consultant in Boston. But I am super scared. I have talked to a few people I know that do something like it. If anyone has any advice, I would LOVE to hear it! And if you need marketing help: like your whole marketing department was let go and you still need someone to help with RFP's, collateral development, (case stories, press releases, product brochures, white papers) direct marketing campaign development, SEO, Google AdWords, Blogging, event planning, etc. You get the drift. I can help. Just ask... thereasa_fullmer@yahoo.com
