So Toni, how many songs will the dvd have on it? So.if you start the first of June , you might have it finished by December then?

I guessed prettyclose to Jackie's new CD, with the exception of Jackie's mother delaying it out until the summer ,when Jackie is out of school so she could tour. I even geussed the amount of songs.

Oh yes, ask Jackie's mom if you could join Jackie on her tour, it would give you notice in the US , and SSSHHH Colombia records could here and see you.

Remember from the other forum that was up for Jackie, I suggested 3 different songs that Andy Williams performed when he was in his prime, I still think they would be great for you.

That would be cool. But you know what would be even cooler?

Check this out, A North American Tour of Toni Gibson, Grace Bawden, & Siobhán Owen.

HOW COOL WOULD THAT BE?!

Toni, it is definitive to release your album next year or there is a chance it could be finished and released earlier at the end of the year maybe during the holidays. Would love to purchase it as a christmas gift for others :-)

I'm not sure if it is deffinatly going to be released at the start of next yr. I think that is what Gray is thinking about doing though because if I release it at xmas I will be having to compete with all the other famous artist that release there albums for xmas lol

I don't know about anyone else but frankly to me you can hold up to any other artist that is already established. What is true is that people would spend more for gifts in the holidays and your album would be a fantastic gift item for many music lovers. Promotions and reviews are definitely important to bring attention for your album to those that does not know you yet and this is true regardless of when your album is released. So even if you are going to released it next year, you still need to promote it much earlier anyway before christmas. So even if you're not gonna release it this year, I think it will be a good idea to make it pre-order before christmas so people without deep pockets like me can reserve some money during christmas for your album! :-)

Yea good point, I do have to promote it before the release date
I'll just have to go with the flow and see what Gray decides to do in the end
Thanks!

Hi Toni,

It's me again, (oh no, duck & cover). I just wanted to let you know how much I look forward to your upcoming, debut CD. As the days pass, I know it's getting closer and closer. With each video you post on YT I try to imagine what songs have you may have chosen? As I was over at ClassicalCrossover.co.uk voting for you, I realized that you are in the top 5, (for 9 weeks now), and your first CD hasn't even been released yet. HOW COOL IS THAT?

Toni, I know in my heart you were destined for greatness, and I am SO happy for you that you are "Living the Dream"!!!
You are so talented, and beautiful, and truly a sweet young lady! I wish you All the Best in everything you do.

I'm gonna go before I get too mushy. (ooops, too late)

Your friend and FAN

Aww thanks so much Steve!
It's so lovely and awesome to know that I have people from the other side of the world that truley believe in me and will support me!
Thanks for being one of those people!

So, I just read a tweet from Toni, (yesterday) and she said,

"Just been shoping for some clothes for my photo shoot coming up "

How cool is that, right? It just keeps getting closer & closer.


edit: I just noticed that on this forum, Toni's quote, which I copied and pasted from twitter appeared different. On the tweet, she had the smiley, colon/parenthasis (that IS the singular for parentheses). However it appears here as the smiley face. Cool, huh?
I just thought I point that out.

It's getting closer and closer. The anticipation is driving me mad Toni. If I can't stand the excitement, how must you be coping?
