Tribal Council

[onoffon]

Thanks for the listen Johnny - I'll be happy to pass your compliments to our sax player.Since he's recorded on the last couple of Danny Elfman soundtracks, I don't think he'll be overwhelmed by your considerable opinion, though.Cheers!

To think that any one of our CD productions is anything close to "minimum effort", one would have to be clinically brain-dead before they posted such a comment...But then again, what about "Money for Nothing/Chicks for Free"?LOL I think we will have tribal council tonight.

Quote:Quote:I thought all of us here were musicians with one common aim................................... to extract as much money out of the general public for the minimum amount of effort.To even read this kind of comment - even if it's meant as a tongue-in-cheek joke - is absolutely absurd!!!!First off, most artists here are looking for licensing deals, which involves extracting money from high dollar production companies who have budgets that pay actual dollars to use our intellectual properties. If the general public then buys it - that's an extra added plus.But, the statement "minimum amount of effort" is a personal affront to everything we stand for as artists. To think that any one of our CD productions is anything close to "minimum effort", one would have to be clinically brain-dead before they posted such a comment...This guy should be thrown off the island without a life preserver. I presume you either,are,were or would aspire to be a Pro.I presume you have put many years into perfecting your Instrumental skills.I presume when you play in front of an audience you use minimum effort to maximum effect.I presume you get paid for what you do.At the end of the gig,evening,week,month year,whatever you don't hand money back to your paymaster saying "this is too much"!

Quote:I don't care who he/she has played for it's still out of tune!Yeah, okay Johnny - you're the first person to ever say that in nine years since that tune's been released. It was personally chosen by Derek Sivers of CD Baby to be on the first "Best of CD Baby" compilation he ever produced. I could list reviews a mile long from people that love that tune and not a single one ever said the horn was out of tune...It's cool - you ignore the fact that you make some bonehead remark and, instead, resort to personal attacks on our music...I know... I know... you don't care... it's still out of tune...Maybe your ears are agonizingly flat...

I've had a bad case of fried modem (embarassingly uncomfortable) the last few days. Did I miss something, or have y'all been throwing rocks at each other for a while?

CaseyHere is my official response to the Savage Tribunal deliberation delivered by the Chief Savage Casey Rockey Horrorshowitz and his faithful deputy,Traveling Ed Dirger.I have been watching the board during my "self imposed" exile and have decided that without me the remaining board members could make a fortune if they were to market the contents as a non invasive cure for insomnia.Not only that but I think there is a potential market for anesthesia as well. Casey and Ed could work together on a CD to develop relaxation techniques and just by way of encouragement,I can testify to the fact that listening to either of these "artist's" work had me in a comatose state in seconds so together they would be unstoppable or is it unstartable.Just a thought guys.
