    Spotify Artist ROI - how Spotify contributes to the music business

    I used Cdbaby and Bandcamp.com to release my Bishop Lake EP. Cdbaby has a decent payout, but Bandcamp was by far the best. Not that I have sold that many downloads, but it's nice to make a few bucks, and be able to trace it. I am self publishing my stuff, makes more sense.

    PRIMAL FEAR : 2014 North American tour

    This is probably the best explanation of why they aren't bigger here. Hardcore fans are awesome, however there aren't enough to pay for a full tour.

    Music, at the end of the day, will be to your ears whatever you want it to be.

    New Annihilator song

    I think that every release since All For You has been brilliant. This just adds on to his ever increasingly awesome catalogue. IMO :)

    Why your favorite euro band never gets huge tours

    A lot of times, and I can't say this is the case for every record label out there, but a "veteran" musician, who had recorded and toured quite a bit, explained how it had worked for him. That he would do an album, the label would rake in dough on sales to chain stores, and whatever percentage...

    New Queensryche Streaming

    I really enjoyed it from start to finish. At the end of the day, i'm sure this release is nothing groundbreaking, but I do think the songwriting is far more solid than Geoff Tate's album, and the production is way better as well. "Spore" is my favorite thus far. It's the first Queensryche album...

    Is Skeletonwitch really big enough to do an 85-date North American headlining tour?

    Actually, if they are playing that many shows, and the shows are smaller, then they could potentially do quite respectably as far as money goes. They aren't staying in fancy hotels or eating in high end restaurants. they will probably be sleeping in their van. It will most likely be a very...

    Jesse Leach rejoins Killswitch Engage

    Jesse did the Times of Grace disc with Adam D. and was incredible. I loved Howard, and I don't like Jesse's performance on AOJB, but he has matured so i think he will bring them up even further now. Hope Howard keeps doing music though. He was a great frontman.

    Play the ProgPower USA Ultimate Roster Fantasy Game

    sad thing is, is that if Halcyon Way was booked for only 1.00, that would be more than most promoters are willing to pay, hehe ( i kid i kid, or maybe i don't ;)

    Why You Do This

    After 15 years in and out of small time touring acts, I can with all sincerity say, that money DOES buy the experience, and that there is no such thing as a free tour. hehe You wouldn't believe the shitholes I had to "pay to play" in, ahh the memories..................

    I would love to do this, I used to nail "The Final Countdown" at Metalsome Karaoke here in Atlanta. I would LOVE to do Welcome Home by KD though. :)
