Advertise your tour dates, cd's, and merchandise. Set up shows with other bands. And voice any frustrations you have with the music industry.Mr. Blacknoreply@blogger.comBlogger71100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4187893955449740864.post-89169702195887992112009-06-14T16:00:00.000-07:002009-06-14T16:04:28.590-07:00

I've been sitting here contemplating a few things about the music industry. One question that keeps popping into my head is why do radio stations, the FCC, and our own Government get to chose what we listen to? Case in point, many people don't know this but our government compiled a list, after 911, of songs that they then would ban from radio. Now, I know that what happened that day was tragic,

Such a great sound! Starewell contacted me and asked me if I would listen to their music and give them some feed back. So here it is. They are truly one of the best bands that Ive heard in a long time. When so many bands today are trying mix genres Starewell is staying true to REAL ROCK. They have, however, found a way to mix sounds from some of the greatest bands in music. So much so that I

So I'm listening to some music by John Pence. Another unknown artist that I found on the internet. Currently I'm listening to his song "mountain". An accoustic heartfelt message to his parents. What I gather from the songs that I've heard from John is that his music overall is a good mix of rock, a little bit of emo, and a touch of Jack Johnson (one of my favorite artists). I'm truly discovering

If you haven't heard the music of Gidgets Ga Ga you need to! Honestly, This is exactly the type of band that I was refering to in the previous entry. Talented, creative, and they really break away from the repeated, boring, overplayed new bands on the radio. I listened to quite a few of their songs and I have to say that the production was good, the music itself was great, and independently the

So.... Here we are in 2009. The music industry as a whole has truly deteriorated. It seems now more than ever there are bands and artists that have "made it big" who, for the life of me, I can't figure out why! Bands and groups that have no talent and in truth sound exactly the same. In an age where "American Idol" tells us who to look up to I have to ask myself, are there anymore artists left?
