    Hopeless showcasing
    Personal, Showcase

    In speaking of hopeless showcasing (see yesterdays post). I see quite many stupid artist projects showcasing as well. First of all. No, not really that someone will just pass by your show and discover you. Their stories are fabricated. You

    Failed projects
    Personal, Sxsw

    Since I’m on SXSW this week I see a lot of hopeless projects showing off in the Texas sun. One of my favorite things is to be at the booth where companies are showcasing new ideas. I usually go around

    Like reading about having sex.
    Personal, Sex

    What to say to the best band in the world.
    Personal

    Make it harder
    Personal

    Damn got a severe eye infection and writing messages on the phone is really difficult. Usually, just the time is hard to do it and all autocorrections and small buttons. This takes it to a new level. Well, at least

    Another meeting.
    meeting, Personal

    Is this meeting really necessary? Many times we get so many calls about meetings with artists. And the only question is what should we do next? And what happens this summer? You know what? You should do as much as

    The next step! Mc Donalds style!
    ladder, Personal, step

    I think this has been on the blog before. But I can take it again since it always comes up. Most artists (and people around) seems to think the music industry works like a job ladder. No this is not Mc
