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

Cool beans & Bozeman That's great news. Thanks Slack. 81 pre-orders isn't bad at all. We should have a cd release party and get a bunch of the HR members featured on the cd to perform at it. I bet we could unload a few more. Slack, you should come over to The Zebra on Saturday night the...

Yup Our cds sell well at live shows. They are full length and we sell them for $10 a pop. Don't sell many off the web yet though. Hopefully that will change. But we've definitely made a profit with our cds. We've recouped our costs fairly easily. Hey Vox - you've sold five cds off your...

Coolness Sweet. I'll be waiting by my mailbox. btw - Slack, I got the show at The Zebra. Saturday Aug. 23rd 10pm Locust Street Taxi w/guest openers "Bucho". Should be a fun show. Hope you can make it Slack...you would be the very first homerecording.com person I meet in the...

Homerecording.records I'll only accept the position of VP of marketing if Gidge is my secretary and brings me donuts everyday....we could recruit some newbies for interns. I might take a stab at writing an article too....but no guarantees on quality or timeliness. Maybe we could have an...

Real ones I vote for real cds all the way. We just need to promote the cd a little bit. Here are some ideas I have for that. Maybe you've already thought of some of these Slack but here they are anyway: 1. I imagine that several of the submitters have websites of their own...get them to...

uh, oh Hey Chris...I bet you'll have a cd of your very own to send along with your submission for the next Homerecording.comp CD. Now I'm all nervous....I think I closed my data cd and did things correctly...I did use EZ CD creator though....did the label get smudged so as to be...

Mine is a song about firemen recorded on freeware with one old $50 microphone and an alesis keyboard in my attic. Don't be nervous. Tucci www.locuststreettaxi.com Horns, Harmony, & Humor

I think mine went out on the 23rd. I'm looking forward to getting that comp CD in the mail and hearing everyones' contributions. I'm excited that I made it this time. How are you going to decide track order? Tucci www.locuststreettaxi.com Horns, Harmony, & Humor

just practice Play your songs through on your own many times until it becomes second nature. Sometimes you will still forget things because of nervousness, but this will lessen the more you play. The trombone player/singer in my band forgets words to his songs all the time. We just flow with...

Excellent, thanks for the tips Slackmaster.

Well, I suppose that could be good and bad. How many copies were sold from the first one? Maybe next year you'll have to start screening submissions for the best ones...if you get so many that it makes it really impractical. That would be kind of a bummer though. it's nice to be able to...

I will Slack. The booking guy at the Zebra seems like a nice fellow. Hopefully he likes our music. I've also contacted the college down there. Haven't been able to get in touch with anyone yet though. Tucci www.locuststreettaxi.com Horns, Harmony, & Humor

ok So basically anyone who sells their own cds are for all practical purposes acting as an indie label with only one artist? I believe I understand. Thanks for the reply. What's the best way to go about making initial contact with indie labels? Just visit their website, find out if they...

Sweet Cool, thanks Slack...well I guess this is 60. Yay I made it. Now I just have to make sure I make my submission correctly. Thanks for the clue in on The Zebra. Tucci www.locuststreettaxi.com Horns, Harmony, & Humor

oh yeah btw- Slack if you happen to read this. Do you know anything about the Zebra Cocktail Lounge? Is that a good place to play? We're going on tour at the end of the summer and that is one of the places I've sent a demo to. Tucci www.locuststreettaxi.com Horns, Harmony, & Humor

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...

Those indie labels What exactly do Indie Labels do that people who are marketing their music on their own don't? Actually, I think I'm going to start a new thread about this. And do you really only need to try 2-3 Indie labels? Tucci www.locuststreettaxi.com Horns, Harmony, & Humor
