Response to my suggestions

I have decided to give a bit more fuel to this blog. I decided to do so (rather impulsively) by posting some of the email exchanges following my previous entry. I am hoping that the folks who emailed me back won't terribly mind for taking their permission for granted.

Email 1: From Suvo, 12:18 PM

Here's my reply to the blog entries recently made. I decided to also email my comments as I think the blogsite may not have as much readership as this e-list does. Please respond with your comments, if possible.

Follow-up Comments

I liked reading the original post. Not just because the author is a good friend of mine (and thus I have to do my cheer-leading/-following part). It's more due ....

[part of original email deleted]

These are my thoughts on a Monday morning.

What are yours?

Email 2: From A, 12:32 PM

Suvoda,

I would be very interested in the Music group that you suggested! When should we have our music group meeting? Lead korar moto knowledge (breadth or depth) music e amar nei....kintu jodi from co-ordination perspective bolo ami shei tate kaaj korte raji achi...

tumi ki ekta band er moto conceptualize korcho?

Email 3: From B, 12:52 PM

To Subhabroto,
Me and my husband C is game for the music group.We would love to join the group.

Email 4: From Suvo, 12:52 PM

Thanks for your quick response! Email korar agey ami implicitly assume korechilam je tui (and a few others) definitely interested hobi :). But I still wanted to send out a generic email - to see if we can get some new people/fresh ideas in.

I was thinking more of a "club" like atmosphere. Amar money hoy "band" brand naam-er onek gulo negative effects :) ... for e.g. ego-clashes, the need to perform with increasing frequency, etc.

I was thinking of our goals along these lines:

a) Meet at a regular interval - spend some social time with people of like-interests (music).

b) Discuss music which we can play as a group (like a band). example - 5 people presenting a jazzed-up bengali folk song - vocal, keys, drums, guitar, violin

c) Provide a platform for solos + duos

d) Catch-up with what's going on in the music world

e) Create a digital archive - to easily share music among us

Again, these are my 5 min thought on this. Perhaps, the first few meeting should be designed to figure out what would attract us to meet regularly, given our busy demanding life is US ;)

Great! Thanks for your quick email.

I will wait for a few more days to collect all replys - I will get back to you.

....

There were a few more email exchanges which I am excluding as they are not relevant. Also, I replaced the names of the email authors by A, B, C, etc.

Why post emails?

So, why did I post these?

Well, first, to give credit to the folks who were quick to positively respond.

Second, to provoke some more reaction from other BSSM members. (I know there are many others who are interested, but probably are running from class to class, or didn't get time to check their emails).

I will keep you posted on this topic.
