I'm finding it impossible to get gigs because nobody knows who I am and I'm finding it impossible to attract management/promotion because I can't get gigs. Any ideas? I've done the folk club thing as floor spots but for a full gig they all say they would need to see "how I handle a crowd" -...

I have this song in both wav and mp3 form on my PC. It was mastered at too low a volume. Is there any way of increasing the volume in my PC? It's playing in the background on my site here. MICK O'REGAN - Home I'd appreciate any help.

This one was recorded at home with the TASCAM DP-02. TRUE VALENTINES - Mick O'Regan - YouTube

Hi all, It's been a while since I've posted here as I've been pretty busy with various things both musical and non. Last week I released my new single CALVARY STREET. I hope some of you will take a look and a listen. I'm fairly happy with it. It's already sold some on iTunes, Amazon, etc...

I can't find the appropriate place to post this so.... www.mickoregan.com Thanks folks. :)

I'm pretty crap at remembering the lyrics on my own compositions. I could do with a pretty basic autocue system - I think using a music stand with printed lyrics looks intrusive and unprofessional, though that's what I've been tending to use for want of something better. Anybody here got any...

What do you guys think about this company? They've offered me a Digital Distribution deal for my CD but have asked for an "administration set-up fee, meta data, ISRC & URC mastering costs" upfront on signature of the agreement. I was always told to be wary of any Record label who asks for fees...

So how do they work these days? Theres no money around so they're reluctant to invest in new talent development. Sign to a minor label and they can't really get your physical product into the bigger record stores, because the HMVs and TOWERs are not willing to stock new artists unless they're...

Has anybody had any experience with or know anything about these guys: http://www.songwriters-guild.co.uk/ Thanks.

I'm now getting some radio play which I'm thankful for. I've been filling out the application forms for the PRS here in the UK. What does it mean that I transfer the rights of performance over to them? Does this affect my ownership of the songs and copyright? I'd be grateful for any info.

Is it possible to get the major retailers like HMV to sell CDs that are home produced ( ie, without record company backing)?

Has anybody had any experience with these? Any reccommendations for any similar companies in the UK for selling CDs?

Is it important to join?

Whats the average cost involved in putting out a run of say 500 CDs with cover photos, track listings, artwork etc? Can someone give me a good company in the UK?

For some reason I am unable to get to the MANAGE FEATURED SONGS page. I sign in and go to the EDIT PROFILE page. When I click on any of the tabs I go to a "webpage unavailable" notice. This is two days now. Yet it seems to work ok on my PC at work. Any idea whats wrong???
