I've replaced my crappy band's members with expensive ones, expect to see my wealth plummetting soon.

Edit: Had to reverse that as I'd have been out of cash before I could get a single out of them. Now only bleeding £50k a day instead of £100k :S

I'm not at all sure how I got that much money to be honest, I'm managing a country & western band for Christ's sake.

My money-drain wasn't as bad as I thought. My solo singer had a birthday, so sold a few of his first release without any promotion needed.

Should have two new releases out for tomorrow, but now I have the dilemma of whether to gig, write an album or keep on the singles money-train - as the two options have appeared today.

Im currently cycling two bands, one writes songs and releases while the other practises - swap, rinse and repeat. I have been steadily buying more expensive peeps but could bite me in the ass soon.

03:17 : well done! you have won £387,257 in the lottery!

Huzzah!

I've now also got the option to leave the beginner league.

I did wonder how you had so much money.

Also, my single release has gone spazzy unless I've missed something.

I just named a single that was ready for release, but it won't let me record it for some reason. It just loops round and round with a music alert.

By any chance is it a trance record? Maybe it's just playing it back to you

I too am moving up a league, more bands and maybe a design studio.

Last of the beginners league as I've now moved up to the "normal" league.
Shouldn't be long before you bummers join FJ and myself methinks, then normal scoreboarding will resume.

Post by **FatherJack** » April 3rd, 2009, 23:09

You can choose 'managers in my address book' and 'any league' to show us all together.

buzzmong · Post by **buzzmong** » April 3rd, 2009, 23:44

I'd assumed it was on Any League, cheers for the heads up though FJ.

Charts to resume!

Epic Fail.

As you may have noticed, I've been having fun adding lyrics to my songs and trying to do it in the style of the bands, so my first single from my Europop band had banal, catchy lyrics. I even made up a little tune that they go with.

It's been in my head all week.

Serves you right for missing your calling as some sort of bleach drinking mentalist simon cowell type.

You now have to write the tune in acid or similar, and let us all hear it. And then unleash it upon the world for everyone to buy and put on their mobile phones.

Not sure I want it more firmly cemented by the 100 or so times I typically hear a song when making it.

In other news:

Casiotone have started recording Theme from Beach Head II, and Judd Blaker is doing a wicked job of it!

First time I've ever not got the 'not best choice for a sound engineer' text.

Post by **HereComesPete** » April 6th, 2009, 11:11

I look at the names of the studio and try and match them up. I've only ever been told they aren't the best choice once.

Also - expect the chart to be aflame with Intensive Care Unit's new epic ballad, The Far Canal!
