I'm signed up at this cool new site called amiestreet.com.

They have music with no DRM that you can buy. The really cool part is the price. Everything starts FREE when it goes on there. Then they rise in price up to 98¢, based on their popularity.
Also, the artists get 70% of the sales!
So basically the songs don't quite hit the iTunes price, there's no DRM, and the artists get a heck of a lot more money per song than iTunes would give them!

It's a great way to find new artists for free. They're not all unknowns either.

And if you want to sign up give me an email and I'll send you a referral email. That way we both get free money to spend on songs. :)

And then go buy Sunspot's stuff if you don't have it yet! Their songs are all still at 15¢ & 17¢ so you can get all 4 albums for about $7 which is less than I paid for just one of them!

I've started a webpage to collect links & downloads & such for free mp3s that I find on the internets. A lot of it is distributed under creative commons licensing. Some of it is links to the site where the copyright holder has made it available.

If you find an artist you like, support them by either buying their music, or donating money, or both!

Got an email today with Sunspot's upcoming shows:

It's been way too long since we've hit the windiest of cities, but we'll be back in Chicago THIS FRIDAY, April 7th for our biggest show in the area yet. We'll be at The Abbey Pub and performing promptly at 10pm. Other bands include The Tallest, The Lesser Scene, and Sunday Morning Chameleon. If you'd like to come, let us know right away because advance tickets are only $5 and it's $7 at the door. That's two bucks in savings that can be used for partying!

Also, a reminder that we'll be back in the Cincy area on Saturday night at the ever awesome Chicks Rockfest. It's at The Southgate House in Newport and, ironically, we'll be in the Ballroom on Saturday night at 11:30pm. There are so many great bands performing all weekend long, we cannot wait to blow the roof off with YOU ALL this Saturday!

I was planning on going to the May show at The Red Sea until I realized that it is the same date as my friend Dawn's wedding. *sigh*
