I know there is sarcasm in this post, but a lot of truth too!
The times have changed. Need to use this to our advantage.
Gotta face that phone technology is here, and its changed life as we once knew it.
Radio play is big Corporations.. Internet is what radio once was. Got to use it.
One is not confined to a local pocket of people in a small town.
The whole world can hear ones music.
Form a band and turn the living room into a make shift sound set and up load performances.
Play sets as if in a club. I'm not up on the lingo, maybe that is called a pod cast....
Scour music sites to see how others are doing it. What there doing right and what could be done better to get ones music heard.
This kind of stuff is happening here in Arizona. Found this in the local Craigslist..

Now your thinking!
Love the enthusiasm!
2 houses over, Damn thats loud! :dood:
No risk, no reward. This goes for me too!
I've been nesting too damn long on all this. I need to spread my wings and fly!
Thats why I posted those Beatle covers here. Flapping my wings, getting them strong for flight, so to speak.

I jammed with Michael Goode who is a keyboard player.
"Show me you favorite jam riffs..."
About a year later, my little Jam was a Chaka Kahn song.
Oh, I didn't know that Michael Goode was Chaka Kahn's keyboard player....
But anyway I like Chaka Kahn, slightly less painful.

My current originals band has 2 singles so far. We put them on Spotify etc via CDBaby amd they are copyright through SOCAN. Apparently the first one has been played a few times on local radoo in a nearby city.
Working on an album.

In this country there is no copyright registration required, you hold the copyright on anything you have written automatically.
Same here in the U.S., but having a copyright is necessary should you have to initiate a legal proceeding.

What happens if bozos in the band start claiming it's their song when they had nothing to do with it? How can you prove you are the original author of whatever is being disputed ?
Like any dispute, you would have to file a lawsuit, but only when money is on the line...
I used to write down the date, on lyrics.

I couldn't afford to initiate legal procedings, barristers make more money in an hour than my music has made me over the last 40 years.
