Guns N Roses - Chinese Democracy - IRS & The Blues

I just caught some “news” the Guns N’ Roses’ much delayed (and when I mean delayed I mean like ten F#$%@ years delayed) album “Chinese Democracy” is finished, and that Axl is planning for a late summer release. Now, everybody’s heard this before and no one believes it. I ten to give people the benefit of the doubt, so I’m gonna hope this is true. Axl gets a lot of crap from the world, so I’m gonna be nice guy here and say I’m looking forward to hearing it.

Testing the New Yahoo Media Player

I’m behind on my blogroll (as per usual), but thank Fred for pointing us to Yahoo’s new browser-based media player. Yahoo makes it very easy to point towards an mp3 file (that has been uploaded to the web obviously) and plays the file right in your browser. Just add a few lines of code and you’re all done.

A great tool to showcase some music on you’re website. Or you could spend a bunch of money to build a snazzy flash player like every other band out there does. I’d much rather spend that money marketing and advertising instead

Using Your Website’s Analytics To Help Set Sales Goals

I’m sure that many artist’s check their monthly website statistics to see what kind of traffic they are getting. Hopefully they’re aware that they should pay no attention to the “hits” statistic because it doesn’t mean anything. They’re instead looking at unique visitors and how many page views they have on average. So how can they use this data to predict and plan for sales goals?

Manage Your Touring With GigTrak

Just outta nowhere (okay, I was doing some research, but that’s top secret for now), I ran into GigTrak, a browser based software application to help you manage your touring.

That’s right, it’s as simple as that. Manage your touring with a software application.Years ago, labels had to pay people to do half the job that this application probably does.
