“I get a chance to see new bands and new music. I've seen a lot of amazing local bands, bands that I think 'have what it takes', that they could become the next big thing. More often than not it doesn't happen.” ThinkingBigsHappensNextChanceBandLocalsBig ThingsNew Music Author:Matt Snell
“It costs lots of money to make records. It costs lots of money to generate artwork and manufacture and then ship things to people. If it keeps getting stolen, then the band has less ability to come to your town and perform. And that is ultimately what all of us want to do.” PeopleIfsWantAbilityRecordsCostBandTownsShipsLots Of MoneyStolenArtworkOur Town Author:Matt Snell
“A lot of bands are going out and playing for nothing. A lot of bands will go out and get paid, but the gas tank will eat up their paycheck. When they manage to sell a t-shirt or two, there is a little bit of leftover money there so that they don't have to have McDonalds that day. They can actually eat something decent with possibly a bit of cash leftover. It's a huge part of the business now.” LittlesTwoBitsHugeBandLittle BitPaidSellsManageShirtsDecentGasCashGoing OutT ShirtTanksMcdonaldsPaychecks Author:Matt Snell
