who cares what you wear? just dress comfortably. if you go in there and do a great job engineering this session, nobody will ever give a second thought to how you were dressed. but, don't show up dirty. they'll be able to smell your fear. if you really are confident, then let that confidence guide you. if you really aren't, then you could be in for a long day.

I will look into Bandcamp. I have heard of it, just not used it. So many of these sites are just 'hosting' sites that afford the knucklehead user the ability to upload and build a page without having to know html. The genius of myspace was the fact that musicians could build pages and then fraternize with normal, non-musician, people. I doubt there are anywhere near as many plain clothes folks perusing Bandcamp.

Thanks. This was my first paid mastering gig, and to be honest, the stuff needed a lot of work. Especially the live record. I wanted to get stuff to gel, and although I definitely feel that I have a long way to go as a mastering engineer (and an engineer in general), the client was really stoked with the results. I am really glad that they are as happy with the job that I did and to hear your compliment just made my day. So thanks again for...

yeah that is refreshingly straightforward and honest.

You can build your own website to stream your content, but you're still going to have to pay for hosting... and it won't necessarily be that easy for people to find. If Myspace or iMeem provide a convenient place for people to find whatever music they want, as well as a way to discover new bands/artists they wouldn't otherwise be exposed to, then why shouldn't the bands be...

wow, Electro-Harmonix? that must've been the early 80s!

My wife has a cheap electric guitar and a cheap acoustic guitar. She also has 5 books worth of lyrics. She also has 5 books full of cooking recipes. I have a full pro studio and work full time as an engineer. I have over 40 microphones and enough gear and plugins to choke a horse. I've worked on over 7 Grammy nominated records. We tried to work on one song, one time. We quickly figured out it was going to be rough going... So, here's...

Register both and have the shorter one direct to your name as the official website. Chris Garges Charlotte, NC _________________ www.chrisgarges.com

I am starting to put together a website for myself so that I have something a little more professional then just a myspace link to attract clients. I may be over thinking too much but my name is on the longer side and easy to spell wrong: Christina Picciano. I'm wondering what I should use for a domain name. Since I don't have a studio or a company name yet I would have to use my name. Should I use christinapicciano.com? or maybe...

yeah I totally agree. I don't make it out to as many bars to see bands as I used to, and try to stick to places that seem to take pride in booking quality shows where you actually want to see all (or most of) the bands on a bill- Empty bottle, hideout, etc. I will say that if I play a show, I watch all the bands. and Usually I do if I am just in the audience. I think this comes at the "expense" of me going out to fewer...
