More Live Music

Rather than building a one time event, keep your audience engaged! They might want to know what esle your doing, but most of all they want your music! Instead of holding back for the "breakthrough album" give it to them as it organically develops. It doesnt have to be perfect, far from it. It just needs to be good, and passionate and something they can connect to. Live music brings this, and enables the artist to work on ideas and INCLUDE the fans in the process. Give them a free dowload from your website, myspace or face book. Feeling included and a part of the process is what makes the jam bands that remain on perpetual tour able to do so. Many of the large acts are struggling between the rape and pillage of the wallet to buy tickets and the complete disconnect with the audience. The way to get fans to generate more fans is to give them what they want. Your music.
