Below, check out my acoustic set from The Electric Co. in Utica, NY. It was my first attempt at a Live stream of a show and the actual music starts about 9 minutes in. Following my set is a set from Aaron Cidzik. Thanks to everyone who tuned in or came out to the bar. This will be a start of many more live broadcasts to come. As always, your comments are appreciated.
A Followup: Lets look at U2. They put out the single ‘Get On Your Boots’ well before the official release date of the record. The point? Obviously to hype the album. If I liked the song immediately and wanted to get the album, I couldn’t……until - OOPS the album leaks onto BitTorrent BEFORE the official release date. So now you’ve got a real problem. The customer has now shifted from wanting to make an impulse purchase - giving the artist money for their record - but instead moves to BitTorrent to get it. Not necessarilly because its free, but because its AVAILABLE.
