I am having fun designing & planning my CDs & packaging. I bought a local indie artist's CD, and it is a Ridata unbranded CD, ever so cool! The info is stamped on with ink, ie with an old-school rubber stamp. I am so copying that idea, I don't like the idea of paper labels that might peel off. I think the Ridata CDs are inkjet-printable, but the best part is there is no huge logo to interfere with my own labelling.
I have found out a lot about how to get good colour xeroxing done from a Photoshop file. Thanks, ashendari! I made up a little mockup CD jewel case liner and insert, I am still fine-tuning my design.
I also have made up a database of community radio stations across Canada, fired up Filemaker Pro and... I almost liked fiddling with Filemaker best of all. I have a couple of festivals in my database too, literally two: I need to practice my music way more before I can consider myself a headlining act. However there is one festival that has an open mic. Scores!

Home County Folk Festival (which happens in mid July) in London, ON has an open stage stage. If you feel like driving for upwards of two hours to go play at an open stage it's a good one! More info: http://www.homecounty.ca/festival/index.html
