Yep - That's Hollywood reality, Larree....
But I beg to inform you.. - Hollywood is not the real world, nor the center of the Universe.....

Dude. Hollywood is just as real as any other city on the forking map. You are totally cluless about how the entertainment industry works.

The age factor is not releavant with Americana which is the genre' the Hobos are in. While I seriously doubt that a Major label would be interested, there might be a few Independent Labels interested. Go to a search engine and type in Americana.
One didn't need to sign up with 1Sound to shop the band. Most of the Indepenent labels that have Americana Artists would listen to a CD if contacted and asked to submit one. One doesn't really need an Attorney or Mgr. to do that much. I am not speculating. I know. I have had 14 Major Labels and 8 Independent Labels listen to CDs of other Artists than myself.
I loath to shop my own material so I haven't done so. I am not seeking a label deal. I am seeking "known" Artists to cover my songs.
My objection is to the Terms of the 1Sound Contract. Yes, if Drooly signed up online that is legaly binding.

Yes a partnership aggreement within a band in a real good idea. I know a more than one band that broke up when it seemed that they were actually getting signed and huge differences all of a sudden emerged.
The 1Sound Contract is just plain bad. Even others who are now starting to read it, see that.

Good points.
We do have a clear and complete written agreement, signed by all the band members.
We also have regular serious discussions as business details evolve.
I've been in many bands, and this one has the most harmony among members that I've ever been in.
And in all honesty, if a deal came along through 1sound's efforts, it's quite possible we wouldn't accept it.
We have other irons in the fire....

Well, the stupidity of *some people* (larree and phil) never ceases to amaze me!
No, drooly has NOT signed a contract...There are no contracts unless an offer is made from a label, THEN the ARTIST decides whether to take it or not. Normally Iwouldnt bother answering about 1sound, but slagging them on invalid points is pretty damn nervy.
People shouldnt post about things they dont understand.
Gosh,the discoveries one makes late at night...heh
