Lurkers welcome!

Swooning Beatles fanThank you! September 2009 was Che Underground: The Blog’s biggest month ever for page views … And if it had 31 days like most self-respecting months, it would’ve handily beaten the record for the largest number of individual visitors. (Our audience did breeze past the 8,000 mark without the neighbors calling in a single noise complaint.)

You’ve been coming back month after month for almost two years, and we’re very proud and grateful. We’d also enjoy hearing from you!

At our chattiest, we have maybe 20 or 30 people commenting on posts; out of 7,000, 8,000 or more readers, that’s just a small fraction of a percent.

Got nothing to say? It’s OK! It’s great just having you here — you’re part of our community and always welcome even if you never write a word. Thank you for caring about our supporting role in California’s musical and cultural history.

But if you’ve been waiting for a chance to speak up— just to say hi, make a comment on the blog or the scene, offer a suggestion or ask a question — consider this post a blank piece of paper for you.

(And if you’d like to send your thoughts to a smaller audience, you can always e-mail me privately at cheunderground@gmail.com.)

Welcome to October, and thanks again!

  1. Because of this blog, I’ve been getting lots of positive feedback offline--through private emails and facebook messages, and folks like Gary Heffern tell me the same thing.

    I’m not sure what it will take to get the Legion of Lurkers to post comments. The registration process is very easy--and you can even use a fake name if you are too embarrassed! Anyway, we know there are a lot of you out there, and we’d love to hear what you have to say.

  2. I think “Local Heroes” and “Our Family Tree” have been the best threads in a while!

    I’d like to hear from anyone with more info on family tree.
