More than Just a Song And Dance
When our friends discuss work, career goals, job satisfaction and the general mish mash of “shop talk” that comes up in circles of young professionals, we usually just smile, nod and smugly reflect on the fact that we have the best jobs ever! We are also usually quick to throw in comments about the benefits of working for ourselves – bosses we love, jobs we love even more, PJs ‘til noon, meetings at the beach – the list goes on and on!
That said, we are constantly evaluating, assessing and revamping the ever-growing world of B&L. As we continue to muddle our way through the business side of things, we are always developing new strategies to manage an increasing workload while planning for the introduction of new team members. I believe we may have mentioned our dream of an office administrator and roadies one, two or many times in preview posts! We also informally collect feedback from kids, parents and educators on an ongoing basis to help guide the development of our live shows and other projects.
Contrary to appearances, it’s not all fun & games!
So, today’s project in review – the B&L Blog!
Our blog has served a number of purposes:
1. We use it to share information about upcoming shows.
2. We use it as a diary of sorts to recount stories from the road and/or behind-the-scenes adventures.
3. We use it to relay exciting announcements and news flashes.
4. And occasionally, we use it to share fun finds that we’ve stumbled across in the course of our many musical adventures.
Clearly, our blog is multi-dimensional and our posts often ramble along a not so well-defined path. Eerily similar to our careers…!?
So, what do you think? We know we have a few regular readers out there, and we’d love your input. Are there particular blog posts that interest you the most? Are there things you would add? Change? Do you love it as is?
What do you think?
Please feel free to leave your comments below or email us your thoughts at info@bobsandlolo.com. We’d love to hear from you!
Alternately, if you’d prefer to tell us in person, please join us tomorrow, January 30th at ArtStarts on Saturdays in Vancouver, BC. We’ll be delivering two special performances for families at 11am & 1pm. This unique and intimate performance series takes place in the ArtStarts Gallery at 808 Richards Street. Admission is FREE and no registration is required. Space is limited, so please plan to arrive a few minutes early to guarantee a spot! www.artstarts.ca

The behind the scenes adventures would be very interesting, and if you have video to share, the more the better!

I’m with Jon. Behind the scenes would pique my interest. Did I spell pique right?
Beautifully done blog ladies, with the class and style that you are known for. Looking forward to following your adventures. Well done.

How about a little peek into “life outside” Bobs and Lolo as well as all the usual great stuff. And I agree, behind the scenes would be great too. We can’t get enough of you guys here (even though we are in the UK) and whatever insight we can get is much appreciated - the good, the bad and even the ugly (if there is any).
Keep up the fantastic work ladies - you’re a hit with us!
