| So The Letter Black has a new Indiegogo fund raiser going on.....and it isn't for recording a new album. Instead they are asking for their fans to kick in to the tune of $20,000 to offset touring expenses.
[rant] I suspected the crowd-funding thing would lead to this. Artists are just going to continue to offer their fans memorabilia to fund pretty much every aspect of their musical career. Not that I dislike TLB, but I will never spend any of my money to help support a musician unless it is to buy one of their albums or to attend a concert. I have to say I think this has gotten out of hand. If the band can't raise the funds to tour and/or are not pulling in the receipts they need to stay on the road maybe they should just stay home.

| I don't mind helping for an album if it is for a band I really like and respect. I still don't like the concept, but I've gotten used to it. So, if it were for the album, I would kick in. For touring expenses, they will just have to live without my money. _________________ I might have decided, or maybe not, that I should or shouldn't, depending on the issue or non-issue, to possibly share or not share, any thoughts, opinions, or facts (that might not be deemed factual by some), due to possible fear of any misinterpretation or retribution. https://christianhardmusic.niceboard.com/ | |
