Had a great rehearsal last night…

Posted by Comments Off on Had a great rehearsal last night…

Had a brilliant practice last night. I'm pretty impressed at just how quickly the material came together, considering how long it's ben since our last rehearsal. 'Guess it's pretty easy when everyone knows what they're doing.

Really looking forward to getting back on stage again. It's always a blast. Just where the heck is the “Blue Moon” club anyway?

Tomorrow Collins and I check out the CD pressing plant. Finally get this thing our!

Prince: Record labels are toast.

Posted by Comments Off on Prince: Record labels are toast.

The artist formerly known as “The Artist Formerly Known as Prince”, a.k.a “Prince” is on MuchMoreMusic as I type this. He's making some salient comments about the future of intellectual property in music. More bad news for the labels as he advocates the artists retaining their own IP rights, making and distributing their own music using the internet.

If that leaves the major labels as primarily a “delivery agent” for the music, so be it, he says. His analogy being “Fedex doesn't own the rights for the goods they are transporting”. He gave a timeline of approximately 10 years for record labels to sink into the tarpit.
