The Latest from TRACER Magazine

It’s been a while since Amanda or I have worked on the Nostalgic for Now blog, so I thought I would give everyone an update of what we’ve both been up to. As many of you probably know, we launched TRACER Magazine approximately one month ago and our schedules have been more or less devoted to that venture ever since.

In a little over a month, TRACER’s website has already hosted 13,977 visitors. Not too bad, considering that word of mouth is the only promotional tool we’ve been using thus far. We’ve got plenty of cools things planned for the weeks and months ahead, so… you ain’t seen nothin’ yet. Here’s a sneak-peek at what we’re working on, for you loyal Nostalgic For Now readers:

• Exclusive interview with Mark Kozelek – Two week’s ago, Mark and I talked about his recent book of lyrics, his latest Sun Kil Moon album, and more. Mark will be gracing the cover of a very special issue, so stay tuned for more details.
• Exclusive coverage of Bonnaroo and All Points West – We’re sending three staffers to Bonnaroo and two staffers to All Points West, so check back in for some amazing stories and mind-bending photographs from two of America’s finest music festivals!
• Tons of new reviews – TRACER’s website features new album and gig reviews daily! There’s already a wealth of information to sink your teeth into and we’ll begin publishing our regular features shortly!
• More to come! – Big big big things are in store for the midwest’s finest music magazine (exclusive videos! exclusive audio! exclusive TRACER concerts/parties!), so check back frequently!

Now that we are accustomed to the increased workload, Amanda and I will attempt to update the blog on a more regular basis, too. But, you can always see what we’re up to on www.tracermagazine.com. Stop by and register, if you feel so inclined. You never know… you might just win some free swag! 

Until next time,
