If a tree falls in the forest, or a band I dig comes to town and I have no idea, does it make a sound?

No it bloody doesn't

If you're Fleetwood Mac, and you got the benefits of history, hits and press, how the heck do I not hear about it.

What, do I live in a Milk Carton?

Now I have noticed that the Sydney Morning Herald is now the size of the Beano or the Comics Section from the 1980 Sun Herald.

 Alas, thanks to paywalls, I not longer read the grey lady. But I am in constant contact with humans who still read the last of the Murdochian Mastheads.

And yet, band I dig, mainstream, still a big business, comes to town aaaand...

I hear it was a great show.

That's it. It's official.

Old school media no longer has the reach to get me. Or the band didn't feel the need to advertise.

It's definitely the End Times bub, I for one welcome our new digital overloads.

Mac sent me this.

Respect, up to date with Rogue State.

Looking forward to being back in the mix in Jan.

This one has taken some work to get happening. 

YAY! FINALLY.

Christina Crofts VS Den Hanrahan.Two big tone, big sound, big vocal artists, plus us. :-)

I've been keen to hear how this shapes up for some time.

Right so where were we?

Ah yes.

Welcome to the magic of getting the band ready to tour overseas.

Spreadsheets.

Also, we're recording this week.

Yeah back at it.

Coordinating things can take some luck.

Ah yeah. A fundraiser for tour 5.

Yeah.

About that.

Ahem.

Stormcellar Digital Offerings:

As none of us know how Music will work or be funded in the 21st century, it's time for us to do some trial and error.

We want to do stuff.

If you're here, reading this, it may suit you for us to keep doing stuff.

We're working on 2 projects for the year and as per usual, we'll be posting video and the making of.

That's the sort of stuff bands are now putting behind paywalls.

I dunno.

Anyway.

We 're already on itunes/amazon/you name it.

But that's not quite the answer.

So we're gonna try some different things.

Most, will probably, not work.

Whatever does, is the new thing.

So. First new attempt.

ATTEMPT #1 - Direct appeal, Paypal - GIVE US MONEY!

No t-shirt, no tiers, no special subscriber offers.

No middle men and no additional fees.

You give us money, we'll do stuff.

paypal.me/stormcellarband

Yep. 

No strings, no muss, no fuss, just give us cash.

We take all kinds.

Expect an ongoing series of random offers on the site as we look for the New Digital Way of Stuff!

Meanwhile, I gotta go chase musicians.

MUSH!

Got a copy of protools first with this little device we picked up for guide tracking.

Wont let you save local.

Overwrote my files in the cloud, apparently it's a bug.

Software as a permanent subscription doesn't thrill me.

Respect they gotta make a living.

But they ate my files and asked me for $10.

I don't like that business model.

Good show today.

Cold.

And that hot chocolate from the Spanish place was insane.

Good times my people. Good times.

I know things seem grim, and there's some crappy stuff I read in the wires.

Can't fix it all.

Can help you catch your breath.

Also Pro Tools? I'm still pissed at ya.

Yar blockos to you matey.

So much happening in the background.

More soon.
