2011, Week 07: On time and with information - Feb. 16, 2011

Well, this week wasn't one of our more wildly successful weeks at The Drunken Drow, but we had fun. But it struck me that I may not have made it clear that the Aelven Aetherics sets are something of an experiment for me. It's where I try out pieces that may or may not work. And I really do depend on the feedback I get to tell me when something is and isn't working. Luckily, I get some feedback from the people who show up in Second Life. But I'd really like to hear from those of you who've been downloading the podcast version. If you co come to the podcast blog page and submit a comment or two about songs you liked or didn't like or changes you'd like to see made, I'd be grateful.

Granted, I cannot guarantee that I will use all your suggestions, but I will listen to all of them and see what can be done to keep improving my sets.

Of course, now you're going to be wanting to see what's being played in this set. And I'm going to show you:
