Best Buy stores
Smartpunk.comInterpunk.comAny Hasting store
Your favorite local record store
i hope you guys can pick up my album!! i know it's really easy to find it online for free, but it would really mean a lot to me if you could choose to support me and my music instead of stealing it :) besides, it's only $10!
i know it might sound greedy for me to ask you guys to buy my cd, but i just want you to know that i'm not the kinda guy who's gonna get rich and famous off of this stuff. i just want as many people as possible to hear my music, to have fun, jam out and dance to my new cd. i recorded the cd at home, i wrote all the songs by myself. i didn't have a producer or a co-writer or a label telling me what to do. and by buying the cd and supporting me, you are essentially supporting a very DIY way of making music. you're supporting honest music. you're not supporting a formula or a record exec who's trying to create "the next big thing"
if i sell a decent amount of cds, together we can show everyone that music doesn't have to be about fame and fortune and getting internet popular - but it can be about MUSIC!!
i also wanna explain something to you guys about why it's important that you buy it today, or tomorrow, if you can.
all the cds sold today or tomorrow count towards "first week sales"
and whether i like it or not, first week sales are really important to my "career" because it basically shows other people and bands whether or not i have fans (even though I know i do and I know that you guys are amazing)
if my first week sales are good, people get excited about my band and my music and they'll want to take me out on tour and put my cd in more stores!
so the better i look the more i get to tour and the easier it is to find me cd. it also means i'd get to tour with more of your favorite bands.
so i think that helps us both.
anyway, sorry for getting all SERIOUS AND EMO
thanks to everyone who has already bought the cd and i hope everyone else will pick it up!
