I got good news and bad news.
What do you want to hear first?

Okay, good news first!
I’m picking up my Bon Jovi 1995 concert series.

{ unfinished 2020 project } Video Bon Jovi Concert Reviews 1995-1996

A playlist that will be needing an updated title! Because I am going to pick it up where I left off, and at a rate of doing one review per week, let it run through 2025.
At least one concert from April-June 1995, but perhaps more concerts, has become available, so that one too will be included in the new reviews.

I abandoned the project in 2021, because it took me about three hours to research a concert, make a video review, and then 90 minutes to upload, make a thumbnail, write the description box and post it.
And that’s not counting the number of times I had to listen or watch the concert, if there was video as well, before I could make a video about it.

But NOW? After months of writing reviews/ metas for a Bon Jovi Soundtrack of the Day and making a visual to go with it (4 hours per post + listening to the concert);

Or posting the slimmed down version of it which is a Bon Jovi  concert with the context readily available to me (still about 2 hours);

And NOW, when I had originally planned to make this my about sixth-ish weekly list of concerts + context, which take me about 8 hours (!) to adjust the playlist to having the current week on top, check all concerts if there are any new uploads available, and list out the 7 dates and their concerts for this blog;

Now?
I realize that the 4.5 hours to create a real video review, had been an absolute bargain!

And in particular now that I need to start having a very serious look at all my projects, because I have a business to run.

Ideally, I should cull my computer work to 2 hours a day.
So now, making one video review a week, about a concert from the mighty 1995 These Days tour, sounds like absolute, and heavenly, music to my ears!

So what I have done is I restored the playlist 
“Part I: Bon Jovi concerts on this day 10 June and up (before 1997)”
to its original format:
Part I: Bon Jovi concerts on this day 10 June – 5 December (before 1997)
With no longer the current week at the top, but 5 December.

And my next steps are not to keep an eye out on the Bon Jovi concerts of the day, but to start implementing all the new uploads that have become available on the hAnD90 channel, the Santi Jovi channel, check the Fighter BJ channel if I got everything in there;
And many other channels which have been recommended to me, but which I never took the time to check out and structurally implement into our lists.

Another plan is to bundle dates at the same venue, so for example list the 3 nights in Wembley in one go.
F.e. “23+24+25 Jun 95 Wembley”
This is essential to create room in the description box, which is at its 5000 character capacity.
Recently hAnD90 has uploaded new shows, which were never before available on YouTube. 
I need to find ways to cut characters, in order to be able to add them. By bundling consecutive nights, I can.

So a curator for these two lists has been installed;
Part I: Bon Jovi concerts on this day 10 June – 5 December (before 1997)
Part II: Bon Jovi concerts on this day 6 Dec-9 June (before 1997) 
Which is Me!

The lists will therefor remain active and alive, and will only get better over time. 

The other good news is that I started sharing the 369 Catacombe program:
369 Days Catacombe Rock Star Yoga
These are 369 yoga videos, in the correct order to create a program taking you from beginner to master of the yoga mat!
In 369 days.

You can follow along at:
Twitter, Facebook, and I am new on Instagram.

And the bad news?
Well, that is of course that I will no longer be posting “Soundtrack of the day posts”, and will no longer be sending out these weekly lists of concerts.

Not because I don’t want to, but because like many of us, my normal job of being a yoga teacher and a coach, and doing the marketing for that business, will take 40 hours a week or more.

But we’ll soon be seeing each other on my YouTube, for the first new video review.
Which will be a revisit of Wembley first night, one of my last concert reviews in 2021 (video # 21 of the playlist).

Let’s see if I review “Wembley first night”, if I actually got any better at this reviewing thing after listening and writing about a hundred shows since then!
Subscribe to my YouTube or to this blog, and I’ll send it out to you when it’s done.

It is showtime.
