Do you play live?
We used to play live, but we settled down in different places in the country soon after we finished our engineering. In fact the songs were composed to play live as against to be recorded in the Studio
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It makes music more accessible and free for all. But the industry definitely suffers monetarily
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
If I get an offer, I will I think. But I think it is too much of a hassle.
