Woo! Singles chart. I think the music/smiley icons show that I've added my own lyrics, not sure if you guys can vote on them.

After the weekend, it's looking like this:

Does anyone want me to keep doing this, or has everyone added each other now?

Think I've got everyone added. There's been no updates since that last pic anyway, manager wise.

Looks at chart.

I've had Terminal Flatulence record a single to see if I can get some money and ranking while I train my techno band up for the sucker punch. Expect to see Banal Seepage in the shops soon.

Just updated the last chart (which was this mornings) with a newer one encompassing all the new joiners, expect photobucket to pass the changes down when it gives the hamsters a kick.

I just binned my original band and went for a mediocre vocalist to spew out singles, he's called ICU because my outpatients appointment card was in front of me.

My (deliberately) shit Europop band made me £26k on the first day of releasing a single - I'd merely picked the necessary components at the cheapest price there was, so if you need money, just get a single out there, no matter how crap.

That basically bankrolled my second band, who's a solo singer. I found that when searching through the band members for hire, if there's one with three or four instruments they're usually pretty awesome at all of them compared to other people at the same (low-ish) price. Of course their INT and DEX and stuff are still poor, which are the things they need to create good songs and perform well, but they can make you quick money (£150k on release in my case) which gives you more options for replacing band members with better ones.

Promoting gets you more money, but seems to give diminishing returns, especially if you change it each day. Also, spending £10k promoting a wankbag band is a total waste of money. With the cheapest band members, go for the cheapest studio and cheapest promotion - scale up those in order once you have money in the bank.

Same goes for time spent doing stuff - the forums suggest the optimum times are 3 days writing, 4 days promoting - but with a crap band the minimum of 1 day of each gets you the cash in the bank faster.

I'm using one as a slush band for income while I train, write and fettle the other one.

It also takes 4 days before recieving money from a single: 1 day to write, 1 to record, release day (and promotion), and then the money comes in on the 4th.
