How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
We have gotten jobs through our home page from people in other towns who never heard or saw us before. That's cool. They found us on the web.
Putting sound clips online is a great way to promote our act.

Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
We are mostly live performers doing classic rock. As older guys, we have pretty much given up any plans for fame, fortune and record deals. We enjoy live performing, and are happy to have a great local following.
