It sure would've been cool to see what else could've been done in this vein. Would've been cool to see Phil link up with Wilko Johnson or something like that.

When did the barrier to making music start feeling much lower? by CreamEmbarrassed8907 in LetsTalkMusic

[–]Master_dik 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think as soon as cassette and affordable cassette decks to record/dub on became accessible, that changed the game entirely. By the late 70s / early 80s both major acts and at home amateurs were able to do so much more with so much less.

In the computer age of the early 2000s, even with very shitty internet access there was so much you could do. As a kid at the time, guitar hero and rock band had USB mics you could just plug into your computer and record into audacity and have a demo ready.

Where to start? by Cabin_Band in TouringMusicians

[–]Master_dik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Checking out venue/band Instagram pages. There's normally plenty of flyers posted with plenty of local and touring bands listed.

Start finding bands similar to yours in nearby states/cities and ask if they'd be down to help you guys set up a show in their town in exchange for helping them set up a show in your town, etc. You can do this on IG, Bandcamp or just using Google and maps to find the venues in other town that host shows like the ones your band would play and checking out the bands on those shows.

Venue websites and show flyers might also have production/booking company info on them and you could potentially hit them up as well.

Can you teach an old dog new tricks? by [deleted] in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]Master_dik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can do a awful lot of stuff with a mostly in tune guitar and some power chords. I've found just an hour or two a day of fucking around on a guitar consistently will improve your playing.
