and to be fair, i cant really think of any commercially successful bands that got where they are by allowing their albums to be distributed for free. thats just silly.
ok everyone that is envolved in the conversation knows the band on a first name basis, you got a problem with it? You really want something to be done about it? Go talk to Tim, Go talk to Ron, Go talk to Adrian, and get off hear and stop wasting my time with this stupid get nowhere bullshit. If you really think it\'s a good idea take it to the appropriate source. We can\'t do anything about it on here, that\'s the way it is, the band does not want professionally released discs on ther. END OF STORY. As I said before their music their decision. Wether we agree with it or not. You think th eband could benifit from it talk to them, you might actually convince them it\'s a good idea. They\'re reasonable people. (for the most part) sitting on the interenet bitching about it does no one any good. [/rant]
first of all... its "involved".... and its "here" not "hear".... and "there" and "ther".... and "whether" not "wether".... and oh screw it, get a dictionary....
:walks out of thread never to return:
why don\'t you follow through on your promises and stay out if you don\'t want to read this thread?
message boards are here as a forum for discussion, and we have every right to post whatever the hell we want about whatever subject we want. it\'s unfortunate that you can decipher between intelligent debate and "bitching about it online" but i suppose thats just a further reflection of your cognitive function...

relax hon, just having a crabby day, and it seems that nothign is being accomplished on here, it\'s the same thing going back and forth over and over again. You started this to get stuff on oink so if you want to do that talk to the band that\'s the only way it\'s going to happen.
As far as staying out of the thread? Anyone on here knows I never follow through on that, apparantly the drama sucks me in. It\'s all just internet bullshit.
I aplogize for misspelling a couple words, it\'s not the end of the world, last I check this was not an english class.
and that last comment, jesus! I thought you better than that. I made no personal attacks on you, no need to bring it there. We haven\'t always "gotten along" but christ now I now where you really stand.....
....and it\'s "cain\'t decipher"...not "can decipher"....sorry....i couldn\'t resist

....and it\'s "cain\'t decipher"...not "can decipher"....sorry....i couldn\'t resist
:shrug: :doh: read that post twice before submitting. but i still knew i\'d end up making a mistake. thanks for the callout, duane :biggrin:
first album=up on oink
deuce=comin up next
:brocban: fw, you are my new personal hero !
deuce=available
bonafide=next
correction:i wont waste my time uploading bonafide
i think if people don\'t jump on it take them down but at this point any new fans and spreading the word is worth them not buy albums that aren\'t even in print any more. i wonder what the average age of Oinkers is. any way to get to the younger kids is an A+ in my book.
Thats the way to do it Mr. Wah
Please do not release studio albums on Oink. The band is not on the verge of extinction, the band does sell albums, the band brings people to the shows, the bands needs money from their efforts in the studio. People can get turned on to The Breakfast in this day and age with free trading so no need to cheat us and our record labels out of money we expect to recoup for the products we have produced. The first Psychedelic Breakfast album included.
The musician in this day and age already is cheated out of due money because of technology. Legislation still is catching up to deal with royalties and rights with new devices and ways of sharing music. It used to be in the old days, a band makes a record. To hear it you\'d have to buy it. To see them you\'d have to pay a ticket price. No gear was available to take that show home and hear it again. You wanna go see a band again, go pay the ticket price and see them all you want.
The two easy avenues of making money is now blown out of proportion today in 2006.
Free trading, taping shows, itunes, mp3s, oink, limewire, kazaa, napster, and etc. are all chipping away at the income of every musician. Technology has reduced the amount you need to pay to enjoy your favorite artist (you can download albums now for a dollar!).
The argument of exposure vs. dollars is a great argument for another thread. Its a battle between short term versus longterm.
Either way - do not submit Breakfast records on Oink. I expect albums now up there to be taken off immediately. Thank You.
