My computer died, so last week I ordered a new one on Monday, and a PG BIB upgrade the next day. Computer got here last Friday by UPS. Still waiting on the upgrade DVDs from PG, that I guess are somewhere in the US Postal Service system.

Hello,

It's only been 6 business days, and shipping by mail is expected to take 5-10 business days, so I wouldn't worry too much about it yet. :-)

Would you like me to send a fresh set of download links so you can start playing with your new software tonight?

There's an option as to the shipper, no? If you picked the USPS and not UPS, expect the longer time delay.

And -- the download is really nice extra option to select, if you didn't delect the electronic delivery, its been offered to you now, you should consider that as well, you will still receive the disks.

When I ordered I didn't have my new computer yet, for downloading. I was biting at the bit until I called support. They said the upgrade I ordered would need a reload anyway of my BIB '9.5. So I loaded that on the new 'puter and am back in "business". I can wait a few more days for that wagon to pull into Asheville with my upgrade disks.

thanks

Hey Martin.
I asked you this in a former post. maybe you didn't see it.
BTW I live 100 miles West of you.
Any gigs in Asheville or west of Asheville for a guy doing Country and Oldies R&R solo with RB?

PM me if you have any info on gigs.
Thanks

Asheville is a tough town for getting "paying" gigs. A lot of the bars/clubs are going to open mike stuff. Check the Asheville Craigs list, musicians board. I see some on there looking for music for wedding partys, etc.

I noticed this back when I used to send physical disks and books for my aftermarket BiaB products (before electronic delivery):


Some times the US Postal Service is faster than UPS, some times slower. Any time a package crosses international borders, all bets are off. I've had some shipments held up an unreasonably long time and others go right through. I am guessing that either the border people do a spot check of an entire shipment or something an a truck (or whatever) arouses their suspicion.

I know we all want our toys immediately, but some times it just doesn't happen that way.

My BiaB packages have always come by UPS.
Never by USPS.

PS: UPS is great! Please PGM, never ever use FedEx.

Actually, I like UPS, FedEx and USPS about the same, they all generally do a good job in my area, the one that doesn't is DHL. It seems that half the DHL shipments to me either get delivered to the wrong address or missed entirely (when missed, DHL usually tells me nobody was home which of course is absurd since I work out of my house during the day).

But I guess that could vary by location.

Check the Yellow Pages in your area for booking agents and get your promotional materials to them. A booking agent will take 10 to 15% of your take but you won't have to run around trying to sell yourself to every business within a couple of hundred miles of your base of operations.
