All 3 of us in LINE OF FIRE are married, kids, jobs, the whole enchilada.
We're signed to Tribunal Records...their distribution channels got us on iTunes.
We're not a "working band" either. We're a studio/vanity project. We all love the style we play in LOF & wanted to do it...so, we did it. We're fortunate enough to have studio equipment at our disposal, & Tribunal ties up the lose ends.
MySpace is a bona-fide MIRACLE for indie bands/musicians...you just have to know how to use it and don't be afraid to add people...we've gotten 30,000+ plays in 2 years alone...not bad for a band that's never played a show (not for lack of trying, I might add)...

God I wish I had access to a studio. Right now I'm just laying down some basic tracks with Garageband. I'm probably going to start fooling around with ProTools eventually. Hopefully we can get some decent recordings out of it. That is, if we can ever find a drummer.
I'm definitely going to check out myspace.com. Thanks Pelata. You've shown me that even us married working guys can still rock with the best of them.

THANK YOU!!!!

You guys are making me want to start playing music again. My old guitarist keeps bringing up the possibility of starting a little three man band and playing some of the many originals we've written over the years. It would mostly be a weekend thing that we would do for fun, being as we're both married with children. But seeing what a lot of musicians have done with myspace.com and iTunes, we could record some of them and put them up for others to hear.
Pelata, do you have a contract? And if not, how do you get your stuff up on iTunes? Thanks.

So, iTunes, or straight from our label Tribunal Records, or The End Records, or VH1.com, or CircuitCity.com, or whatever makes it easiest on you.
NOTE - Tribunal Mailorder is probably going to be slow between now & August while the owner is on tour with his own band...so one of the others may be quicker. Of course, iTunes is the fastest...
