Your music sucks.

Maybe you should make a few hundred and give about 100-200 to your local guitar store, put up some posters here and there, and maybe even pay to have a billboard done with your bands name and a web adress( make a web site for your band).Then after about 2 weeks, have a concert, and give away cd's afterwards (ask for donations for the cd's tho). Your publicity in your area will skyrocket if you do all this. Especially the billboard.

[QUOTE=the21st_fret]guitarslinger, can i join the "cool guys club" ?

lols[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=ChickenMcFicken]I just want to find out where all these Bay Area people are from, I didnt expect much from SF, but 4 in one thread, thats crazy[/QUOTE]
im from Redwood City, its south of San Mateo.

there is this guy in San Francisco named 19th Street Red who plays some kick *** slide blues...he plays rhythm/lead slide guitar, keeps a beat on a bass drums AND sings at the same time...he sells his CDs for $10 each...

...now why am i telling u this? i am a huge fan of 19th Street Red, sadly i only have 2 of his albums (actually i don't really know if he recorded any others)...he once told me that one of his albums was pretty popular but his sales were NO WHERE NEAR 30 K...this guy also plays near SBC Park (home of the SF Giants), at least 20,000 people pass by him and hear his music every time he performs...and yet he hasn't sold nearly 30 K...doesn't that tell u something???

I wanna join too! we boff from the bay area, I should be able to join!

I think the cool guys club needs some cool guys.

bizzurn.

123456789 10 11 12.......... absolutely correct- but even that will take a lot of dedication and devotion and money- lots and lots of time and resources. that is a great idea though.

I don't think he's in the thread anymore though... too bad- that's a great suggestion, 21!

Thanks man, (p.s. avatar change....)

You wont sell 30,000... ever. dont try. maybe start with 1000 and then if that sells good print of 10,000 more. but dont be cocky.

atleast if it flops and leaves you without a house you can build a house out of jewel cases.

[QUOTE=Brewer14]To everyone whos not APY: quit being a bunch of d[U]i[/U]ckheads. You dont like his music? You think hes crazy? Fine. Give him [U]constructive[/U] criticism. Stuff that will HELP him sell 30k CDs. Why say something like "oMg i tooks a dumps and its better than yur song LoLz!"? Whats the point? Is there something wrong with being supportive? People like SRTracer are good examples of what TO do.[/QUOTE]
We already tried that. He refused our advice.

:chug:

I don't think everyone here is trying to just flat out bash you APY. its gotta be tough to take 7 pages of bad reviews, but thats 7 pages of people that don't like it. I know a lot of people that are into the whole indie/punk thing with a tough of emo, a good few at DLS (you should maybe see if you could get a way in to the annual rock show), actually most of the rock show was either emo, that power pop/low-fi punk stuff. But you hafta think within reason

HARHARHARHAHRHAR

I lol'd when I thought of the threadstarter sitting with 29,982 copies of his CD sitting in his room.

there no harm in making a small amount, then after their sold make some more. i think we have to realise how much 30,000.

thats like say, your on the street and some guy dropped thitry thousand dollor bills off the bilding, you wont be able to c the Sky, let alone the big homeless guy tak-lin you to take your dough (bread).

its funny, i actually kinda liked his music...but that doesn't change the fact that 30 K is more than ambitious...its flat out ignorant...
