I wanted France to win. Just so everyone in Australia would stfu because they're honestly a good team.

Yeah, cricket I sort of get into... I make a half-arsed attempt anyway. I blame Clarke and Ponting for both getting run out. Test cricket ffs.

France to win what, the 6 Nations?

As for those run-outs, they were both very shameful.

I don't even understand the rules of cricket. :upset:

We don't usually get rugby on TV here. :upset:

We do get futbol liga mexicana, though (football aka soccer), but the entire thing is in Spanish.

The USA team played some decent rugby in the Churchill Cup earlier in the year.

You guys must still be proud of Ngwenya's try against the Springboks in the '07 World Cup, man, that guy can run. I'd love to know how he's performing with Biarritz.

Are those even our uniforms? I was completely unaware that America even had a rugby team. I thought it was only a college/university thing.

Yeah man, the USA Eagles.

This is his try, it was voted the best of the World Cup '07.

Dude looks like he's from Kenya.

Probably because he drinks PowerThirst.

Kenya, America, there won't be so much difference after the bombs drop :p.

Lol powerthirst. They're from the province to the right of mine. Saw them perform live last year and met them. Funny folks. Would have stayed for a few brews with us, but one of them was under the weather.

Why is he touching your belly? Did you just ingest copious amounts of powerthirst?

Which one? Didn't you have 400 of them as promised by the ad?

[QUOTE=gaslight;17465392]Not bad, how many guys in the band?[/QUOTE]

200 of the 300 goes into a band account and the rest is going to be spilt between the rest of us.

band account:
School Bus
Half stacks
Hookers
adderall

Album is mixed. Just needs a few more tweaks, then mastering. Should be off to the printer this weekend.

Nah, I'll wait until we have the final product. In addition to selling official printed copies, we'll stream the whole thing on Myspace, upload it to sites like YSI and such, and probably put it on torrent sites, too.

why would you sell copies just give them away dude seriously

not my advice its reznors

Free downloads is giving it away.

We gave away a ton of physical copies of Population Control, but we're actually going to sell the physical copies of this one, as the cost us money to get printed.

you wont make any money and you'll just limit your audience. when you invest in hard copies you're making an investment into expanding your audience. the days of buying music are DONE. give that **** away.

I don't see how charging $5 for an album is going to limit our audience, especially if we're already offering free downloads of it.

It comes with a booklet, original artwork, and over 40 minutes of music. And our album sales generally come from people who just saw us perform, so it's not really a stretch that they'd pay an added $5 for a CD on top of $5 for a ticket to the show. It's happened before.

We're certainly not trying or expecting to make a big profit off the CDs, just break even for cost of printing them. There are still plenty of people who love buying an album and going through the booklet and looking at the artwork and all that crap.

yeah they can go through the artwork and look at the booklet if you give them away too

though 5 dollars is ok

We're not going out there trying to rip anyone off, we're just trying to put our music out there for people to hear. And, as I mentioned, break even on the cost of the printing.

We've played shows where bands are trying to sell a 4 or 5 song EP for $10 or more.

We played a show with a band that basically said they were doing it to turn a profit. And they weren't expecting it from ticket sales, just from other bands paying their "share" of the cost of the venue. They basically lied to everyone so they could make money off the bands they were playing with.

We don't do stuff like that.

umm ok i never said you did why are you tangenting

our demo is 4 songs for 2 buck,

recording quality is decent.

Just talking.

Well, turns out one of my subletters is leaving early, so I get to move in to my apartment ahead of schedule. What a wonderful day, I also managed to secure a $10k donation at work.

Nice!

You have to come down (up?) and visit sometime this year. Once I get employment, I'll glad contribute to the bus fare, or whatever.

Sounds like a plan, stan.
I want more of that best bitters.

I'm barbecuing again, beef this time. I also made this great salad with feta and such. Basically, Montreal has some incredibly cheap places to buy incredibly good foodstuffs.

Wanna come up tomorrow Ben? We can drink and eat and such.
