I missed the game... anyone know where I can see a highlights video? I heard it was messy.

It was one of those things where you just knew it would happen, because it had to happen... it just had to. After England was up by 1 to Slovenia early in their game, and USA had 2 goals disallowed (1 against Slovenia, 1 against Algeria), it just seemed like the cards were continuously stacked against them, and they were going to come back as they always do. It was even more amazing because Dempsey was stopped by the goalkeeper and then it seemed like the ball was just going to roll away untouched when Donovan ran into view and scored.

Ugh, such b.s. This was, for me, the most exciting game so far... so many shots on goal, so many saves, so many fouls, so much serious fighting by both teams to score all throughout the game, and then there was that goal that was declared offside, which really was a great play. I don't even know where to begin with people like that.

Relive the moment over and over again:

Even since I started hanging around 8bc or cm.org, this has been my thoughts exactly. A bunch of starving artists selling music to fellow artists that have to sell their own equipment just to pay the bills. Of course they all think music should be free... they're poor! If I had no money, I wouldn't pay for music either.

My promo EP, which I self-released, has 41 downloads, and that's considering that I require email addresses for downloads... I guess that brings me close to popular, but I have a web business with a lot of traffic and have used that somewhat to my advantage. I'm not a popular musician at all. I do want to get to the point where my music can move on its own (be that sales or free downloads), and that would definitely require taking the same route any other artist takes to get popular; exploiting social sites people actually use (myspace, facebook, youtube), sending out demos, doing shows, constantly bugging friends for support, etc. I don't want to depend on the chip community to gain popularity, currently I just see it as a way to get feedback on my work from other artists and hear what others are doing. Anyway, I am actually working on a complete album and I'm constantly thinking about things like artwork, physical packaging, release dates, promotion, etc.

tl;dr Music that sells is 50% quality, 50% marketing.

It's no joke man.

Thanks EMdash!
