Not surprised but wow
Musicological banter

really not the venue for them is the other issue

So am I going to be able to Space that one?

If we allow this, I just want you all to consider all the ways I'm going to use "Julian" as a verb and how out of hand this is going to be. I'm warning us all now to nip this in the bud.

I always thought that Love had one of those what is happening "Behind The Music" stories, but wow what happened a long the way to the disco/funk band Heatwave…. murder, a stabbing, a car accident not to mention the original lineup pulled together in London included two US service men The Wilder Brothers, a Swiss Bass Player and a Czech drummer. All who along with Ron Temperton who went on to much better things later.

this truly is the sign of the trouble times we are in…
the first Snõõper album had 14 songs that clocked in at 23 minutes the second has 12 songs that clock in at 28 minutes.. what is on their minds they need an extra 30 secs or so per song to tell us

so right before the iggster hit the stage a sound came on over the pa that i was like why and how do i know this.. so i shazamed it and it was Alvin Cash & The Crawlers "Twine Time" which was a chart topping tune for him in 1963. i had just heard this one as I was listening to some of my soul compilations when working on a recent playlist.

Well to be fair, it is tough to find a funky washing machine nowadays.

Noticed it immediately and almost stopped the game to post it, but I had extra trouble with this iteration (came through though with no mistakes). Took so long I forgot.

In a move nobody expected, Sugar pivots to releasing an album of Wednesday covers.
I don't know what the solution is for artists
Yes, support live music, but even that, the bands are getting much less of a cut
I do think that there needs to be a rule that they get 100% of a cut of the merch sales…
Streaming music is so convenient, that people are not actually supporting artists at all
There used to be a time when people would buy $200-500 of music over the course of a year (live shows/physical media)
because that was really the only way to consume music for decades
Now they spend about $50 or less a year, where the actual artists they love get about $1 of that
and as she stated, if they do go to a live show, it's an arena show and they spend $200-400 on just one night
Only thing I think artists can do is more subscription/pateron type things
but most people are not going to do that, but if you can get 10-20k fans across the world to do that…well then you can probably eak out a living
but even I don't do that :(
I do buy vinyl / shirts and see them when ever they come to town, but I'm an outlier and not exactly putting food on the table
the above costs me probably $100-200 per artist and they probably only get $10-25 of that spend

Thanks for posting Yada. I remember her saying this at Anthem but maybe in a more condensed form.
Am not a fan of Garbage but Shirley Manson is one cool cucumber!
It’s weird or hard to understand how artists struggle so much when ticket prices seem so high. T-shirts at shows now seem to average $40 and I see sweatshirts going for $75. Beers are $10.
A bigger and different issue is where is the music talking about the things happening in our world? Where is the reaction??? Most popular music might as well be AI generated: it sounds like it.
