The First

.

… of the many forthcoming articles with lousy titles. heh

.

So, I guess I’m now in charge of this shindig.

I tried this whole fan site thing before and if you’ve been keeping track of Jen’s posts you’d know how my first attempt turned out. MCO still exists, but I really have not been able to fix it or maintain it the way I should. Hopefully this new gig will yield a better result.

To start off, I will try to work on a new banner today. And perhaps add some more features to make your visit here more worthwhile. I didn’t have sufficient time to familiarize myself with the site because, apparently, Jen is already at her wits end with the cleaning, moving and all that, and hence, orientation is simply out of the question.

Anywayz, I hope y’all continue to drop by and keep me company and we can all try to keep track of Michael Castro’s burgeoning career.

The first stop is this “little show called American Idol”. In a few days, we will finally be able to watch Michael’s audition which, based on the rumors and the ever-strong-faith-of-the-Creepers-on-Michael’s-ability, went really well.

A news program (was it on Fox?) showed us a clip of Jason and Michael on the waiting room during the AI audition stop at Kansas. It’s no wonder those commercials are called “teasers”, coz that short clip certainly has a lot of people counting the days to the start of the AI Season Eight.

I already have information on what Michael’s audition song was. For the sake of those who prefer to suffer the agonizing wait, (or enjoy the building excitement- really depends on how you look at it.) I will not mention the song title. However, those who wish to be in on this not-so-big-secret may simply go here and ask.

Or you can ask Ashley or Melissa, because I’m pretty darn sure they know. 😀

Some Notes…

…before I go.

As what I had been saying in the last couple of posts, I am turning over the blog to someone who will hopefully have more available time than me. This week has been crazy and I confess that I haven’t been able to keep track of the new MCas stuff. Anyway, starting tomorrow, my friend DJ will be in charge here. Yes, DJ, the same person that I had mentioned several times before. She started the first blog about Michael which was Michael Castro Online. Due to some technical problem with her page, the contents of that blog were transferred to my blog.

After some discussion on the appropriateness of the title of my blog to the whole direction of the site, DJ offered this site to me and since then, it has been the home of the “all things MCas.”

When the unexpected opportunity for me to move to a new and beautiful home came up, I knew keeping this site will be very difficult. I did not anticipate this to happen this early as I did not expect the house to be available for the six months.

But I know that this site will be in good hands. And although it took some serious begging and pleading, DJ finally agreed to take over the administration. Several people had contacted me to offer their help and to babysit the site while I was away, but I really felt that since DJ had started the whole thing at MCO, it was only proper that I try to ask her first. Thank goodness she said yes.

I don’t know if she’d want her Dreadhead or Castronaut name posted here, so I’d rather not mention it. But I can tell you one thing, she is a Creeper and certainly not one of the bandwagonners who are coming out of every corner lately.

I may not be able to post until our move is done, so I’d like to take this opportunity to thank D, and all the lovely people who answered my announcement and sent their messages and offered to help with the management of the site. Thank you Nathalie, Paula, Lian and the others who requested not to be named. To all of you, thanks for your generosity. I know you will have a fab time working together.

And D, I know you asked me to change the banner before I go, but you are so much better than me in that department. ;-).

Good luck!

And now after reading my blabs, why not drop by here? And play his music while you’re there!

I Found Her!

Yes!!! I talked to her and she has agreed to take over the site.

Thank you to all who expressed their interest. I’ll write about the whole thing later, but for now I have to run. Need to to do so many errands.

And hey, if you have the spare time, do visit our boy’s MySpace.

Some cool music going on there. 🙂

Announcement!

Hey everyone. Something very important came up and I have to take a leave from my blogging duties. The house I had my eyes on had become available sooner than I expected. As I would be quite busy packing and moving, I will no longer have the time to attend to this site. I could just leave it but that wouldn’t be right. My friend had entrusted this site to me and I don’t want to just pack my bags and leave without making sure that this site is in good hands.

I have a couple of people in mind who would do great with this blogging-about-Michael-thing, but I have yet to speak to them and based on the number of private messages that I have received, I know that there are people out there who are also interested in helping out with the site. I have to move in a few days so I am making this formal invitation to anyone who would like to manage this site. Just write me a comment and tell me about yourself. And don’t worry I am not going to make it public.

The requirements? Well, first, you need to have sufficient time to work on this. Second, and more importantly, you must like Michael. That’s non-negotiable.

Thanks.
