Sooner or later, public forums and private conversations at this year’s festival end up pondering how 21st-century musicians will be paid. For nearly all of them, it won’t be royalty checks rolling in from blockbuster albums. Musicians’ livelihoods will more likely be a crazy quilt of what their lawyers would call “alternative revenue streams”: touring, downloads, ringtones, T-shirts, sponsorships, Web site ads and song placements in soundtracks or commercials.

Thoughts? Me - I say get paid baby.

More on the Tava Campaign. Tava is a product of Pepsi and should not be confused with Kava or Java.

Good read & neat site to play on - am easily amused at 2 AM
Move over Starbucks - it’s just getting started

There’s a book called Punk Marketing: Get Off Your Ass and Join the Revolution - worth a read for entertainment if nothing else - one of a few business books that wasn’t a cure for insomnia

What if they really really like it?

Stop the Bus and crack a Tava open wide
Brazilian Samba is my fave

I could go on, but I’ll spare you?
