well i guess i have to write something

so much to say... who am i talking to? and why?

Just got an email and it wasn't from SONICBIDS, the leech and gold medal spam champion.

Don't know i you have ever tried to get your band gigs, but if you have you know discouragement that leads into desperation, which is where a company like sonicbids takes advantage. Hey it's a great idea and i wish it was my company. Essentially they make it easy for you to apply for "opportunities" that cost you from $5-$30 on average per application. Basically you have an electronic press kit that remains active so long as you pay the monthly fee... which is comparable to a website monthly fee.

The dead giveaway is the fact that you get 3-4 emails per day letting you know about the exciting opportunities in your area and across the globe. there is a simple note on the end of the email on how to unsubscribe, but unsubscribing is essentially impossible.

Anyhoo they did get a bunch of my money but that was a while ago.

The email was for a show by the great outdoors on December 6. I like that band so i can take an email on that.
