(05-28-2015, 07:42 PM)InItToWinIt Wrote: Given his obvious placement of Haley front and center lately, it seems unlikely that he would think people might not be disappointed if she wasn't there. Looking at iTune charts, the only 2 PMJ "singles" that show up are Haley's. Has PMJ released singles for other vocalists?
Also, to keep this on topic, I also "think" the tour would be a good way for Ole and Haley to put her new music in front of a receptive audience. It's only a few weeks out of her schedule.
We know that Youtube has Analytics, even shows which country you get the most views with..... I wonder if Scott would use this as a tool to formulate his line up, look at each video of each artist and see which one draws the most views from Australia/New Zealand for instance.
I understand the draw potential, but it doesn't seem to make much sense, if what Haley said the other day in NOLA, that it'll be August/September when the EP drops in the US is true, it doesn't seem to make sense for her to be out of the country, on the other side of the world?

In honor of Haley’s connection to the Number Nine, and the end of Dave Letterman’s show recently, here are my Top 9 Reasons about what is great about Haley connecting with Post Modern Jukebox. And, we start with Number Nine....
9. Haley is out there performing! Damn! What is better than that! Seeing her slay these songs in front of adoring fans. And she is getting back into the groove of touring and performing with a live traveling band.
8. Through her interaction with Morgan James, Ariana Savalas and other members of PMJ, she is really improving her stage presence, becoming even more striking and fun in performance. She is really meshing with PMJ and their sense of humor and fun onstage, and that will be great for her long term.
7. God bless Scott Bradlee and Post Modern Jukebox—a perfect outlet and channel for Haley’s sexy, jazzy style to earn new fans. Her videos have almost ten million views just on YouTube for her songs with PMJ, not even counting “All About That Bass” And millions more through Facebook sharing. All these new eyeballs!
6. All of her old fans from American Idol are rediscovering her. Haliens never forgot her, but millions of other folks wondered where she went, and now they know. She is still the Slayer. And she is coming back…
5. With new fans and her old fans, she is slowly building a base to launch her new EP later this year. And hopefully a tour will follow that will build on the success of her work with PMJ.
4. Because of the popularity of PMJ, she now has several more songs that people will want to see her perform like “Creep”, “Habits” and “LoveFool” in addition to new songs, “Listen Up” songs and some Idol classics.
3. Besides the fan exposure, her music with PMJ is at the top or near the top of iTunes Jazz charts She has popped up as trending topic on Facebook and she is getting Twitter mentions from Billboard, Time, Slate and other prominent outlets. This is Exposure that Interscope never got her, or even tried to get her.
2. Hopefully Haley is making some nice $$$ off of all these PMJ downloads, in addition to money for the touring. She's got to pay the bills!
1. Besides the continuing success of PMJ, she has the “F Is For Family” launch later this year, and of course, her EP is coming out. I can just feel it-- Haley is rising, rising, rising…..
Anything else, that I failed to mention???
Great List, except I might place "Casey Abrams" as the #1 reason with PMJ and before PMJ
Not only did he introduce Haley to Scott, but he's been a constant trusted companion/ collaborator since the very beginning of Idol, 4 years ago
We didn't understand his 'antics' on Idol other than it might have got him eliminated earlier than he should have been. It was a wild card part of his personality, it could go bad, but Casey has fine tuned it, but most importantly, he's allowed Haley to have fun , he's a partner in crime that has kept her 'loose and breezy'.... PMJ has definitely fine tuned her stage presence and performance, but it's been the LumberJack all this time that's been the most significant influence (Outside of her Family
)

IMO he's her #1 publicity agent(and fan of course)

Nice Top 9 list rmd1064. You've pulled together major reasons that are great about Haley connecting with Post Modern Jukebox. I haven't thought about the order, if that's a consideration.
As far as Casey goes, he has been Haley's friend, partner in crime and musical collaborator. Her friendship and collaboration with Casey was an important part of her move to perform more last year. In the context of your stated topic, I'm sure he was a great presence for her when she arrived for the European PMJ shows. But while he may have made the connection, PMJ has given her a musical platform that is beyond Casey. It represents a next step professionally as indicated by your list.
Quote:8. Through her interaction with Morgan James, Ariana Savalas and other members of PMJ, she is really improving her stage presence, becoming even more striking and fun in performance. She is really meshing with PMJ and their sense of humor and fun onstage, and that will be great for her long term.
I'm glad you mentioned the interaction she gets with the other PMJ members. Prior to her work with PMJ Haley had only toured once professionally and it was several years ago with AI. The PMJ tour has given her needed experience on the road performing regularly and it has immersed her iin a somewhat different professional culture than she has previously experienced.
For the most part the group is comprised of seasoned vocalists and musicians who are 5-10 years older than she and Casey. Most have been part of the NYC music scene and they tend to be educated and well traveled. They share an affinity for the kinds of music that sits right in Haley’s wheelhouse. They are an excellent collection of people for Haley to be crammed in a bus with for a couple of weeks. Haley seems to absorb like a sponge in new situations and I imagine she picks up lots of nuggets from Morgan, Ariana, Scott, and others. She also is exposed to a professional social environment that is probably unique for her.
I was delighted when Haley began working with PMJ and delighted when she decided to tour with them in Europe. I thought she would gain a lot from the experience, but man it has been even better than hoped. And now with her growing PMJ fan base she has to be thrilled when audiences hoot and holler as she launches into one of her PMJ “hits.”
Comment for Space Cowboy on Lovefool video
Quote: Last night at HOB in NO, Haley’s stage presence and performances were so good that she had the crowd literally feeding out of her hands. During the finale part of the show, when she came up to sing “Girls Just Want to Have Fun”, she began singing the beginning of the song very slowly. At one point she hit a particular note that must have been the sweet spot in her voice and she kind of lingered on it for a while. It sounded absolutely beautiful and the crowd at the same time literally erupted in applause and hoots in amazement. What a very fabulous voice she has! Amazing

Do you think they'll release "Listen" as a promotional single--if they release it--or after the EP is released?

There had been talk about Haley not doing things w/ BMI because it's a conflict of interest because Ole is joining in the publishing game w/ Haley, but apparently not?

She's probably in the LA office. Or at home. This appears to be a quarterly state-of-the-company presentation that's being "broadcast" online.
