			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-43" title="Performing" src="http://www.louisvdmerwe.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/KB1_9412-300x201.jpg" alt="Performing at a show" width="300" height="201" />It&#8217;s wonderful to be in contact with the fans again, so in that spirit, let me fill you in on what I have been up to since the show ended&#8230;</p>
<p><a title="Willem's site" href="http://www.willemvdmerwe.com">Willem</a> and I have been getting together on a daily basis, learning new songs, talking about music, life, love&#8230; you know, the important things. And while we were doing this we received many many invitations to sing at different events, concerts, even a few birthdays and weddings, which we of course immediately said yes to, and loved doing! We were also on the new-years episode of Top Billing (that&#8217;s a whole different story, though.) And things are heating up.</p>
<p>We are about ready to start recording a CD, and having learned a lot about the music industry in general the past few months, we are looking for sponsors to sponsor this first CD. More importantly to us, though, is that we have put together what we lovingly call &#8220;Our First Show&#8221; (more perform-y type name to follow later), and we are very excited at the prospect of organizing shows, and singing for people&#8230;</p>
<p>In the meantime, if your were wondering, yes, we are now both full-time singers, the culmination of years of dreaming about it, becoming our very own reality. We love what we do.</p>
<p>In between all this I have been hiking all over the western cape, I have met some amazing people, and I am  enjoying my life, as usual. So, there you have it.<img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-44" title="Mountaintop Botmaskop" src="http://www.louisvdmerwe.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/DSCN1138-225x300.jpg" alt="Mountaintop Botmaskop" width="225" height="300" /></p>
<p>Thank you for reading!</p>
<p>-Louis</p>
<p>Ps. En dankie weereens vir almal wat ons tot dusver ondersteun en gehelp het, dit word altyd, inniglik, waardeer.</p>
