So the Long Tail really isn't long? Long Tail theory contradicted as study reveals 10m digital music tracks unsold
The internet was supposed to bring vast choice for customers, access to obscure and forgotten products - and a fortune for sellers who focused on niche markets.
But a study of digital music sales has posed the first big challenge to this “long tail” theory: more than 10 million of the 13 million tracks available on the internet failed to find a single buyer last year.
There's always Annette Funicello's "Pineapple Princess."
The bit I listened to at iTunes makes me think this is made of awesome.
tommyrot, if you're willing and able, besides "King Tut", I'd most like "Queen Jane Aprroximately", "Queen of the Savages", "Princess of the Universe", "King of Spain", "Prince of the Punks", and "Ghosts of Princes in Towers".
Thanks everyone!
So if I wanted to score a ticket or two to a sold out show at The Metro in Chicago, what should I do? I mean, besides showing up the night of the show with a wad of cash....
Is there a place where people advertise stuff like this? The Reader? Craigslist?
The show is Animal Collective on Jan 22.
Oh, I still need buffistarawk info to send my files to....
Craigslist is often good for tickets. Especially as the date gets very close.
aww. I miss The Metro. I saw my first punk show (the Circle Jerks) there.
Oh, I still need buffistarawk info to send my files to....
Sorry, I forgot! I'll send it to you, but there's no email address in your profile.
That's weird. It seems to go away when I edit other profile stuff.
Anyway, it's there now.
So I was reading the 'musicians' section of Craigslist and found this: Seek Bands for Sci-fi Realty Concert (Chicago)
Turns out that's a typo. Here's the first part of the ad:
Seek bands for sci-fi reality concert
Strange Video is a sci-fi reality program that will make it’s debut on a Chicago cable television channel, it’s about the investigators of myths legends and other unspeakable horrors that goes on unnoticed in a few unlucky people homes
The pilot episode will be about bands using their music to weed out a creature called The Antishun,..this will be done exactly according to the legend called Witchen Seed and will make for excellent television
Meh. I think a "Sci-fi Realty Concert" sounds better. Perhaps a story about a Klingon realtor who tries to find a condo for a young Ferengi couple, despite anti-Ferengi redlining in Chicago's more affluent areas....
Where can I find a copy of "Cool and Bored", by the Finnish group LE CORPS MINCE DE FRANÇOISE?
Here's the video - it's poppy and incredibly catchy: [link]
