Which brand of cassette tape is the absolute best to use with my 424MKII? huh huh? Been using Maxell. Thanks, Tucci

Ok, I've been trying to catch up on my post number (which was mysteriously truncated awhile back). I've been trying to make my posts pertinent to existing threads and valuable to the discussions. Maybe I'm dumb, but I don't know how to figure out how many posts I've had in the last six months...

So what are the advantages to being with an indie label as opposed to marketing your music by yourself? And how many indie labels actually have artists on their roster that are making their living at making music? Where do indie labels get most of their sales from? Do they sell mostly from...

Treeline, Weatherbill, and Demensia all recently posted threads asking for critiques of their websites. That seemed like a good idea to me as I am also a newbie with the web site stuff....(I use MS Word). Anyway, any sort of criticism, flattery, or pummelling is welcome...

For our last cd my bandmates and I sat in the control room with the professional engineer for almost the entire mixdown. I guess I was slightly paranoid that if I wasn't there, something might get in that i wouldn't want, or maybe something would be left out that I did want. The engineer was...

I was just reading the requirements for submission and is said 250 posts. Well I am absolutely certain that I used to have a lot more than 250 posts....but somehow my post number got bumped way way down awhile back. Am I still eligible? I've been a member since 1999. There was a period of...

www.locuststreettaxi.com/cds.html A tune with trumpet and cowbone - you'll understand when you hear it. Enjoy, check out the rain song too....let me know what you think, cause I'm the singer on that one. Thanks for listening. Tucci

There are four tunes on the page including a song having to do with cows. I'm interested in feedback on all of them but especially on "Rain"...well because it features me. these were recorded in a fancy studio in a big hurry. What do you think? Would it have been better to take lots more...

I am planning to book a mini tour for my band at the beginning of September. The plan is to play our way south to SanFrancisco and back (to Olympia, WA). I'm shooting for about 10 days or less round trip. The thing is, this will be the first time on the road for all of us and my first time...

So our trombone player wrote this rap...it's hilarious and it is a HUGE crowd pleaser. It is the only rap-song we do. He took the bass lines from a bunch of well-know rap/hip-hop songs (the fresh prince, big butts, slim shady etc.) and made a medley out of them, but all the words are his own...

I've got a mucho confusing writing-credit issue Four members of my band contribute to our songs. Some of the songs are written exclusively by one person, some are written in different combinations of two of us, three of us, some by all four - we even have one song on which two ex-members of the...

Four members of my band contribute to our songs. Some of the songs are written exclusively by one person, some are written in different combinations of two of us, three of us, some by all four - we even have one song on which two ex-members of the band contributed, in addition to the four of us...

Just keep plugging away at the guitar. It will be much better than any software you will be able to find. Tucci

I live in the state of Washington. The other night I saw a three person country-punk band perform in this tiny hole-in-the-wall place. They were fairly tight and they were fun to watch because they were having a good time. After the show I talked to them. They were on the thirteenth day of a...

If I register with ASCAP or BMI do I still have to send my songs in for a copyright or...since I have registered the songs with ASCAP or BMI is that proof enough of my ownership should anyone try to steal my songs? I know that by law your work is copyrighted as soon as it is recorded in some...

I am not sure what to think about Open Mics at coffehouses and such. Last night I sang four tunes at an open mic in a coffeehouse. It was sort of an impromptu thing - I had to borrow a guitar and ended up breaking two strings while playing (It was old). I thought it would be good practice for...

What is it about some melodies that makes them better than other melodies. Why did the tune "Yesterday" - become the most played song on the radio ever? Why is Beethoven's fifth symphony so memorable? What exactly is it that makes a melody stand out. Is it even definable? Tucci

A local music store is having a sale- Shure SM57s for $75 and SM58s for $90. I've got one hundred dollars. Which do I buy? Tucci

I am working on a project that I hope to have finished by the end of summer. I plan to have a CD with about 10 to fifteen of my best songs on it. I am pretty sure that when it is done I will have a product that is good - good original music recorded in a very listenable format. I also plan...

Why am I getting pops in between tracks when I burn to CD-R? This is a brand new CD-R drive and the first CD I burned contained 1 mp3 file and a bunch of my favorite songs from my favorite cds. It was a test burn and there were no pops. The I burned three wav files from my hd to the CDR and...
