3. more writing and a reply

did a lot more writing today with adam... we finished all of the music for a song and we're finishing up the lyrics tomorrow. if we get back on the myspace top artist charts then we might post up one of our demos. we were booted from the charts a little while ago for embedding our player in one of our bulletins. all of our plays and profile views were also put back to 0. it was one of those things that you just look at and your heart drops and you're in awe of what the hell just happened. but i think they're letting us compete again. so if they do we'll give you guys another song to play... greg and i are going to a halloween party tomorrow. i'm a dalmation for the 3rd year in a row.

we took some heat today for yesterday's blog on thedailychorus.com. people were telling us that we were dumb for even thinking about a deal like that and that we were laying all of our cards out on the table. would it be better if we signed a full deal with a major and lost all control of every song we owned possibly never seeing radio and being shelved? THAT is what destroys careers. not only are we getting guaranteed radio play and money WHILE owning our entire 10 song album that we already created (that means when people hear our song on the radio and they go to buy other music from the band, they buy it directly from us!)... but also if they decide not to pick us up, we get full control of our band again to keep doing what we're doing in a changing industry. the fact that we do so well on our own makes this type of deal even sweeter. it guarantees that we can't be bought, put aside and never thought about again.

it's time for an egg and cheese. night night
