Making Your Own Music Video…

Music videos have been around for a few decades now… However, attempts to make your entertainment vids fast and easy continue to earn its stride.

Musical.ly is the first real social network that has reached an audience, young as small humans to the oldest of wisdom-hood.

Potentially, musical.ly will allow the younger and older generations to generate content in ways that they can’t produce as easily on their own. It is democratizing content creation by providing the resources (i.e., filters, control over video speed, access to professional audio) to make fun and entertaining content.

I may not be the best at layin’-down super guitar chops, yet, even I can create something fun without understanding a lot of post-production-editing skills.

You may find this ‘app’ worth looking into if you are considering a quick video about your musician self or with your band.

Jam On!

Does Your Band Suck?…

Playing gigs in your band…

I’ve always subscribed to the notion that even if you are a cover band, you should definitely play tunes ‘your own way’! Make it sound different and make your tunes (covers and all) sound like ‘you’ not like them. If I owned a bar I’d even go further to require my house band to not only, do covers their way but require a high percentage of songs to be original.

(by: rich menga, menga.net)
When you’re in a crappy cover band playing crappy cover songs in crappy local bars, you are pandering to drunken 40-year-olds.

When I said that “play what the people want to hear” is the worst thing a band can do, I wasn’t kidding… read more and watch video here ->
