Our Future—An Important Letter from the Publisher of NiteLife Exchange

From Scott Barbarino***As New York City opens up, I’d like to talk about where we’ve been, where we are and where we’re headed in the performing arts.

This past pandemic year has been a struggle for most of us, to say the least. There have been personal losses, financial worries and the pain of isolation from family, friends and colleagues. We coped as we could, with Zooming and streaming our lifelines to each other and as a place to keep performing.

Over the last year, I’ve continued to produce Piano Bar Live! (virtually). I’ve likewise been publishing NiteLifeExchange.com without interruption despite the lack of ad revenue. My team has been dedicated, supportive and steadfast in our desire to stay strong and weather the storm. For this I’m eternally grateful.

So, to paraphrase Stephen Sondheim, “we’re still here.”

Those of you who know me know the strength of my love for and commitment to supporting the piano bar and cabaret genres especially. My focus has always been to advance the art, promotion and business of our unique style of live entertainment.

But now is the time for all of us to turn a corner. Live shows are coming back. Virtual shows will remain an important way to continue reaching your audience. It’s important to be proactive and promote yourself at this critical stage of moving forward.

I’m reaching out to you now about the future. I hope you’re planning for it, because as life begins to open up, I may be able to offer you some opportunities to help you reach your goals. I’m here to help.

Send your press release to us for editorial promotion. If you’re interested in being a guest performer on Piano Bar Live! just let me know. You can help support my team’s efforts and increase visibility for what you’re doing by purchasing a banner ad on NiteLifeExchange.com(pricing here or by just making a virtual tip by PayPal to scobarent@gmail.com or Venmo @Scott-Barbarino-1

Any amount is invaluable and appreciated. As an incentive, any virtual tip over $20 can be applied as a discount on the purchase of a banner ad on NiteLifeExchange.com at any time in the future.

Your ongoing support is not only vital but is received with tremendous gratitude. After all, we’re family; our connectedness through live music is a precious one, so please know we’re here for you in any way we can help.

As the current saying goes, together we can do this.

Sincerely,

Scott Barbarino
