Do you play live?
Everywhere the People love music...
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
The best thing on mp3 on the internet is that the very young teenys don`t have to spend all there money for the cheap and stupid teenpopmusic
The rest is not different from the 70thies or aighties we got no mp3s but we made recordingpartys with MCs everybody take his favorite records and than we recorded some nights and days long and i enjoy this old tapes until right now.
The greatest different for me is only that it is so easy to create a musicarchive
