And how is that calf muscle healing up? That has got to be extremely painful, man! I imagine the recording date is going to be postponed. Would not be good to come in without being sure you're at 100%!

I've been down to Saxton, which I believe is at the southern tip of Raystown Lake, and it seems like an area where it would be difficult to put together a band. I don't imagine their are a lot of musicians down that way, but I could be wrong. Wish I could help you out. If I hear of anyone out that w...

Cafe 210 is a great place to play, and it seems like JR is open to having original music. State College currently has a reputation for being a cover band type of town, because the students want to get drunk and sing and dance to tunes they know. Apparently it wasn't always that way, although I've on...

1. Good songs. 2. Good recording. 3. Good marketing. 4. Good distribution. 5. Hard Touring. " What the mind can conceive and believe, you can achieve. " - W. Clement Stone Words to live by. Agreed 100%. Number one on your list is huge. If you don't have some good songs, you don't have any...

Maybe they should just eliminate the record companies then? that would solve a lot of issues? O maybe the record companies should get people working for them that care about the artist and know what they are doing? You made some great points in your post, Marc. Thank you for the information. It doe...

Hmm, I didn't think of it that. Maybe, if the record companies wouldn't be out to screw the artist and line their own pockets, the lame idea wouldn't have come up lol . Then if you think about it. The record companies are basically doing the same thing with gambling on the record sales. So what is ...

As a recording studio owner and engineer, I still think the engineers, producers, studios, etc, need to get some money up front. I understand sharing in the long term profits of a project, and I'm all for that, even to the extent of perhaps taking less money up front in exchange for a share in the b...

Your song will be recorded by professional session players in Nashville, TN. We then add your vocals and mix at Frigo Recording here in central PA! It doesn't matter if you're rock, pop, country, folk, jazz - virtually all musical styles are welcome! How it works: We just need a very simple demo of ...

Yeah - I'm sure they could do it at Data Music Services, or if you are closer to State College than Altoona, I could do it at my studio. I'd just have to plug in my DAT machine to make sure it still works! Looks like you're in Loretto, though, which is def closer to Altoona than Boalsburg! Not sure ...

Very interesting, indeed, Jim. This is definitely something to think about as it's so easy to flippantly post something that could get you in a lot of trouble, whether it's true or slanderous!

Yes, December Radio are a good band, as is Lincoln Brewster. Anyone check out Red yet? Yep - I enjoyed Decemberadio when I saw them a couple of years ago, and I've seen Red the past two summers at Creation. I'm a big fan of Red. I met them briefly at the PRS guitar booth at Creation this year after...

I've seen Kutless live two times, and I have to say before I saw them live, I didn't think too much about them. After seeing them live, I gained a new respect for them and their music. Excellent band. I think Switchfoot puts on possibly the best live show that I've seen, though. Of course it's all s...

Funny stuff, guys! BTW, you can use your stimulus check to pay to record at my studio and the money will stay in America ...until I go spend it on a new LCD TV, that is, or perhaps some new German microphones!

So cool, man! My son, who is only 21 months old, has been moving in time to a beat since he was under a year old. When drummers come into the studio, he is so fascinated by it. My daughter, who is 7 and a half, has been able to carry a tune on key since I can remember, even humming along on key sinc...

I grew up listening to whatever my dad was listening to, which was Spencer Davis, Traffic, ELP, Chicago, Jethro Tull, Blood Sweat & Tears, etc, plus a lot of jazz. He could play piano by ear, but no one in my immediate family was really a musician. My dad's uncle Johnny (Johnny Frigo) was one of...

Well I was born and raised in Chicago and the suburbs, so I'm a Bears fan myslef. It was definitely nice to see that win yesterday. I'm also for the Steelers, unless they are playing the Bears!

It's times like these that I feel very fortunate that both my wife and I are recording engineers. We can completely relate on any musical topics! It doesn't mean we always agree, but at least we're speaking the same language and understand each other, and appreciate one another's points of view! And...
