brain.....melting............away.....apples?

I tried "sweetpickles." Figured it was the best guess.

Nothing's holding U down but you, and you actually need to, sometimes, in order to solve certain puzzles that life throws at you. This is one good Apple of a puzzle, is it not?

i followed all the clues you threw out, but still no soap.

i did open pages and pages of code, but have no idea what to do with it.   :-?

Yeah, I read the code, and nothing is there.

[getinthevan]

Now the page just says "not yet.".  Should we be saying farewell to the Z panda at the top of the page?

[ms. yvon]

d'oh!

oooooh.  new art work!  wonder what it will be...  :o

[Kory]

Oooo.... I can't wait! Can you imagine all the pre-order bonuses we'll have to get.
"Pre-order at itunes to get a bonus track"
"Pre-order the vinyl @ Badman to get and extra side of B-sides"
"Buy the record at an SIMS store and get a free disc of demos"
the list goes on!

[Andrushka]

When do you all suspect we'll hear a first single? I'm also predicting a late april/early may leak.

ATO is not giving up this album pressing to Badman  :-/
I emailed Dylan ages ago to see if he would be up for delivering Evil Urges at my lunch break on 6/10.....per him, and he can't blame them at all, ATO is keeping it in-house.....

Here is a write up about him and Badman Recording Co. in our local weekly rag.  If he is officially an Oregonian, are the lyrics now "Was a Badman from Oregon"?  Doesn't quite flow... ;)

if buying digitally - peeps should forget about itunes, buy from the source and get better sound quality  190 (itunes plus :/) vs 320k ( good label way)   & directly support the band, no commission for apple.  they make enough money

edit: imho

I don't think Apple really makes but a penny or so a track. They are getting revenue from sales of iPods... I agree they have a lower quality kbps but they do offer (depending on label constraints) DRM free higher quality tracks for the same 99 cents (edit: you mentioned that). I'm not a fanboy but you gotta give Apple a little respect for what they've done with digital music.

PS, you're still supporting the label if you buy from a bands website vs itunes, the label decides what a band gets and I'm sure it's the same for itunes as it is  from a the band's site (aside from really indie bands, etc.)

Crap, I forgot what I was going to say...

...but hello anyway.

iTunes sold 30 million songs in it's first ten days.  that was 3 years ago.  apple's doin' all right, even if at a penny a song. ;)

do you guys know about zunior.com?  i like them a lot.  they give full res version options (i think it's a little more expensive)

labels don't necessarily "decide" what a band gets.  there's probably a 69 page contract for digital music between the band and the label, and band and label would have agreed on percentages and things that are really interesting like that.  the thing about digi distribution that's really great for indie bands is that there's no overhead once it's up on a site.  (aside from general advertising and marketing)  

at this point, i think the absolute BEST way to support a band that you love is to go to their shows, and buy their things (cds, tshirts, etc.).  you can buy iTunes gift cards as merch now, can't you?  

if they're not coming to your town anytime soon, you're still supporting a band by purchasing their music, even through iTunes.  everything contributes to everything else.  8-)
