![]() Hi from currently snowy Wisconsin! (I'm late.) My cat ended up sleeping on my SBB tote for the entire time I was in Germany/Denmark/Norway and it's basically now half-cat. Seemed appropriate for multiple reasons. |

![]() MBV. one of the LOUDEST shows i've ever experienced ... |
![]() |
![]() That SBB tote is so great! It holds my cowboy boots easily when they need a cobbler visit. My Baffler tote did the job, but with nowhere near the style |
![]() |
![]() Question for all (this after visiting Bandcamp for Clau Aniz' record); if it says "Buy Digital Album" I assume there is no physical format available? Can't remember ever seeing that, and boy I do like a record or even a CD! |

John from Florham Park:
After living in a wasteland that is south Florida and starting to listen to free form radio i have learned to have an open mind about music | |
![]() |
![]() I saw Weyes Blood as "Weyes Bluhd" a decade ago, if that's indeed the same one |
![]() |
![]() I have def gained many musical IQ points from listening to WFMU over the years... and the archives! Not enough lifetimes to catch up on everything. I'm sure I first heard Weyes Blood on Shrunken Planet, bought all their works on Bandcamp |

Physical may or not be a better option to support the artist, it depends on the deal they have with the label, and these vary widely, even record to record |

![]() |
![]() @Itzall Ablurr: on Bandcamp they do get something, and 1$ for a song seems fair to me (they'll get most of it). But please don't use iTunes, ever. Apple is evil. They'll take at least a 40% cut, and charge the artist even more to make tracks available, then will only deal with middlemen who take their own cut, but then act as gatekeepers who demand their share, you get the drift. The actual artist might get 1% on that model |

coelacanth∅--agreed about Scamazon. Ever since I learned that Bezos prefers to keep 2 ambulances parked outside Amazon's fetid warehouses in Arizona 24 hours a day to transport heat-stroke sufferers...rather than install more expensive air conditioning...I was out! Haven't bought anything on Amazon since then. |

And to clarify: by "more expensive" I mean "more expensive than two 24 hour ambulances." Because there is zero air conditioning in the warehouses as it stands. It gets pretty stifling for those CamperForce seniors on rollerblades www.wired.com... |
