Gordon The Guru - Incurable... or IN-CURE-ABLE?
Whatever you believe either serves your health and well-being in an empowering positive way or not. A belief is a feeling of certainty about something. It has also been described as a thought you keep thinking. You do not have to be able to see and hold something or have tangible physical evidence to believe in it. Gravity, electricity, energy, spirit, angels, God, or the belief everything will be okay? How about a cut on your finger healing all by itself, or no matter what you do you will never amount to anything, and will never lose weight? You see the importance of belief and how yours can affect your life experience… positively or negatively.
I always recommend and encourage to choose beliefs that support and serve you, and release and let go the rest that do not. We often accept and inherit beliefs from parents, school, religion, media and our own life experiences. Many would agree that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, even though this is not true! It just appears to be true relative to standing and observing the sun from planet earth at dawn and dusk. How about the world being round or spherical? You will not convince members of The Flat Earth Society even with pictures from outer space! (You read that right … there is such a group even today). So you see, you can verify some and choose the rest. I repeat, you CHOOSE beliefs that support and serve you, or not. You can elevate your wellness and well-being, and I believe extend your life by consistently choosing empowering ones.
The placebo effect is the belief in relief, recovery, and healing either through a sugar pill believed to be medicine, or a physical procedure like a knee surgery which is not actually performed. That is the power of the mind and belief to heal the body. It is well known. The fact it has been effective even once let alone many times, should encourage and divert interest in accessing this inner power. To some the placebo effect is considered miraculous, others an anomaly, and to the pharmaceutical industry inconvenient and unprofitable. Recent reports I've read show the placebo in trials accounts for as much as 30-50% improvement and in some cases disease symptoms completely subside.
The best example of this I am aware of is Lester Levinson, creator of The Sedona Method. He was assessed as terminally ill at age 42 and advised by his medical doctors to go home and spend his remaining time with his family because in their view nothing more could be done from their approach. What he had was considered "INCURABLE". Lester did go home and believed there must be something he could do. He was right and it gave him another 42 years of life. He, like many others before and since believed in the inner power of the body to heal. "IN-CURE-ABLE". Not much difference in spelling but a major difference in wellness, well-being and in his case longevity.
In 1954 Roger Bannister did something considered humanly impossible for hundreds of years. He ran a mile in less than 4 minutes. He not only trained and prepared physically but also mentally. He believed he would do it, and he did with less than a second to spare. He did something else which I believe was much more significant. He gave everyone the belief it was possible for them and since then many have done it year on year. As of this writing the current mile fastest time is almost 17 seconds less at 3 minutes 43.13 seconds.
I believe we all have the innate power and resources to optimize our wellness and wellbeing. Hippocrates born 460 BC was considered the "Father of Medicine". He has many quotes to his credit including: "natural forces within us are the true healers of disease" and "healing is a matter of time, but it is sometimes also a matter of opportunity." The Hippocratic Oath which includes "do no harm" is named after him.
In my work today, I strongly hold the belief that part of the natural design is to be well and thrive. The mind is the body and the body is the mind and when you have resources methods and techniques to utilize the power of both you can experience optimum wellness and wellbeing. Of course medicine, science and technology have their place but they are not the be all and end all and except for life threatening emergency situations should be considered an option rather than first port of call.
If we believe and trust in our internal resources to thrive, recover and heal, we allow the process rather than resist or impede it. There are many powerful non-invasive choices available to support the body and mind. I not only offer them but use them myself with remarkable and lasting effect. These include all elements of the holistic approach such as positive affirmations, breathing techniques and meditation, tapping on the acupressure meridian points, optimum nutrition and moderate exercise.

I got the letter from my surgeon's office, saying it is time to set up my blood donations. I am supposed to donate 3 units, starting 34 days prior to surgery. I am having a difficult time finding a center that does this, close to where I live in PA. Also, I have been quoted fees from $148 per unit, to $500 per unit, for them to draw, process, and ship the blood. I am wondering, do most surgeons ask their pts. to do this? And, for those of you who did, how did you feel afterwards. Normally, a person can donate only once every 56 days, but we are to donate 3 times in 34 days. I realize, we will be getting the blood back again, but doesn't it make you feel more fatigued, going in to sugery? Those of you in eastern PA, western NJ, where did you go to donate? And, for those who received donor blood, any problems with insurance paying for it? Sorry for all the questions, I am feeling rather perplexed!!
My surgeon suggested that donating my own blood would weaken me for surgery. I had 4 pints of blood from the blood bank during surgery and one pint after surgery of frozen plasma (I think that's what the fifth pint was.) My insurance took care of paying for the blood.
Luckily, I had no problem with the donated blood.
I'm not sure exactly where you are located, but I took my daughter to Hershey Medical Center in Hershey PA for her blood donations which is where her surgery was done. Not sure if they will do what you need them to do, but I would think since it is one of the bigger hospitals in the area, they might be able to help or at least recommend a facility that can help.
Have you contacted the blood donor center nearest you? They might also be able to recommend a facility to you if they don't do it themselves.
I work at UCSF where dozens of scoliosis surgeries are done every week. Our surgeons have stopped asking for autologous blood donations.
By the way, I'm guessing that the "every 56 days" thing is probably for donation of blood in the general population. For my first surgeries, 19 years ago, I donated 7 units over 7 weeks.
Lori, I donated one pint at a Red Cross center in West Chester (right off Rte. 202). I felt really wiped out afterward and told Lindy I wouldn't be donating any more. As it turns out, I didn't need additional blood anyway, but if I had needed more, I would have been perfectly fine with donor blood. It's very safe these days. I can't quite remember the insurance end of things with this -- I have to check my records.
Dr. Lenke did not want me to donate my own blood and he also felt the blood bank was safe. I intend to donate blood when I'm a year post-op because I'm very grateful to have blood from the blood bank.
I love hearing of your generous expression of gratitude! I wonder if there are restrictions on donating blood in someone who has had prior transfusions? I think there used to be, but I am not sure now.
My surgeon also does not allow his patients to pre-donate blood. He feels it weakens them and potentially increases the risk of infection. I had an 8-hour surgery and received 4 units of blood-bank blood during surgery. I needed two more units a few days later as I was quite anemic (Hgb 7), so I had a total of 6 units.
My surgeon feels that the blood bank blood is very safe. I was not sorry that I couldn't donate my own blood.
I pre-donated 2 pints at the apheresis center at the hospital where my surgery was done. I lost 6 during the surgery and ended up getting my 2 back during, then another 3 from donors.
I donated both pints in 6 days and felt slightly weak but not badly.
I donated 4 pints in a little over 3 weeks. It didn't really make me feel weak. The tricky part was trying to keep my hematocrit high enough so I could keep donating. I did use all 4 units, plus all the cell saver blood from the surgery. I donated through the red cross blood donation center, which was about an hour's drive away for me. There was no charge. They had it delivered to the hospital, another hour or so away.
Thank you everyone, for all of your replies.
Susie Bee- it is interesting that you did not have to pay a fee. It was the American Red Cross center closest to me (1 1/2 hrs away) that quoted the $500 fee!
I only donated blood once, and felt so horrible after, I have avoided it since. It sounds like it is not a requirement to do so, so I think I will have my husband donate for me, and leave it at that. I am not concerned about the safety of donor blood. I was just hoping to avoid any possibility of autoimmune responses to weird antibodies some people have. Its good to know none of you had any problems!!
Linda- 7 units in 7 weeks?! Wow, you are tough!
I say just do what you want. The doctors are split on this one, too. No one will judge you if you decide one way or another. I almost didn't do it, either. Go with your gut. In the overall picture, this is a small thing, so don't sweat the little stuff!
My doctor asked me if I wanted to, but I decided not to do it. He said he thinks for most people it ends up being a wash because you go in low, and end up needing more than you donated. Since I went in full, I only needed 2 pints a day after the surgery.
But he would have had me do it if I wanted to, so I think it's entirely up to us these days to decide for ourselves.
Is it common to receive blood from this surgery? It seems like everyone has received some, but I never did. My surgeon said I lost a liter of blood... and from the help of a conversion chart it came out to a little over 2 pints. No where in the surgery report does it mention that I received any blood.
Susie- I think the cost differs from region to region. I was told it was $450 for processing the blood, and $50 for shipping.
Tiffany- I just asked Dr. Boachie what the average blood loss with this type of sugery is, and he said 500-1500cc. Some people can tolerate a loss of 1000cc, and not need blood. You were one of the lucky ones!
I donated one pint a week prior to surgery, at the hospital where I had my surgery. My husband and son also each donated a pint for me as we're all the same type. I did feel weak for a day or so afterwards, but then of course, it was just one pint.
Gayle, The restriction for donating is one year from the time you received the transfusions, because if you were to get a blood borne disease, it would show up within that first year.
As a retired Blood Banker, I personally wouldn't recommend donating more than one (or maybe two units for very hearty women)of your one blood, because it weakens your immune system. Many times, I have seen women come in for surgery that have donated and need to be transfused before the Doctor will even operate on them because their red blood counts are too low to safely operate.
Blood Bank blood is extremely safe now.
Thank heavens for Canadian healthcare. I donated through the Autologous Blood program here in Edmonton, AB a pint every week for a month before surgery. I used it all during my surgery... and it was free. I had a pretty intense diet of steak & spinach to keep my hemoglobin count up. I hate needles but used EMLA cream (over the counter numbing agent) so I couldn't feel the needles. The very first pint took me 12 minutes to fill, but by the end of the program I was a champ pumping out a pint in 4 minutes. I was very happy with the program and felt confident using my own blood. I didn't have any problems with sickness or weakness before, during or after my surgery. Obviously it's very different for each person, so you just have to make the best choice for you.
Good luck with your decision and your surgery! Sending you prayers & fast-healing vibes!
When I went to see Dr. Good, he mentioned me donating blood for my surgery. I am concerned by people mentioning how it can weaken your immune system. I am not a large person...probably could get a way with donating one unit about a month before.
Something to ponder. Need to find out what blood type my husband is....he is willing to donate blood.

After much contemplation, I decided to not donate, and just use donor blood. My husband was going to donate, but studies have shown that directed donor blood is not any any safer than regular donor blood, and our insurance pays for donor, but not autologous donation! Crazy healthcare system.
lisanicole- thank you for the well wishes!
My husband, super cautious man that he is, wanted me to donate for myself.
The lady across the street, who is the head of the med tech dept of our local hosp, said that she wouldn't do it, that they are vigilant about the safety controls, and all I'd do is weaken myself pre surgery, and that the popularity of autologous donation has taken a real nosedive in these last years. Much to my husband's chagrin, I decided to not do the autologus blood donation. I'm glad I skipped it. I did need transfusing post-op, and all went well.
I was told by Dr. Lenke nurse that some Red Cross groups would try and charge me. She said not to pay, as they are not suppose to do that. Complain to the national office.
Hi Laurie, I donated one pint of blood. I just about passed out and didn't donate anymore. It took me a day to feel better. I donated through the American Red Cross in Bryn Mawr. It cost me 50. Which I was thrilled because I had checked a couple of other places and it was going to cost ALOT more. I asked Dr. B if he thought I needed to donate more and he said no. I ended up not needing the blood during the operation, though they did give it back to me sometime after in the hospital basically because they had it (as I understood it). Due to all the safety precautions now and Lindy telling me there have been no negative incidences of donor donations, I was very comfortable if I needed additional blood. Good luck with all your preparations!
I donated two of the three pints they asked, and I suggest you don't donate. I was exhausted and by the time I went for the third donation, my hemoglobin was way too low. I emailed from Dr. Boachie's office and said I can't do the last one and opted for the blood bank, which I think I received one unit from them. The amount of vitamens, etc. I had to take for 30 days before the surgery for the blood donation was overwhelming and upset my stomach. That's one less stressful thing you have to do/think about prior to your surgery. PLUS I paid $149.00 each time I went to NY Blood Bank, and I haven't received anything from insurance. I don't think it's covered.
Thanks for your input. I hope you are both doing well. The decision process was causing so much added stress for me, that I just decided to not donate. I e-mailed Dr. B., and he was fine with it. I want to be as strong as possible, going in to surgery. Two weeks until my day of pre-op testing, then 2 1/2 weeks till the big day. Very surreal. It is because of all of you, that have gone before me, and shared your experiences, that I have the strength to do it. Thanks isn't enough.
I'm been wondering what to do about the autologous blood donation, too. I'm scheduled to donate two units total (at the NY Blood Center, three weeks and two weeks before surgery). When I was younger I'd faint at the drop of a hat so it might not be the best experience. I'm also concerned about getting weak pre-surgery. On the other hand, I've been eating a lot of beef, which is a real treat for me since I usually don't eat it (daughter is vegetarian and husband is semi-vegetarian).
My surgeon doesn't ask his patients to donate either. He told me blood bank blood is perfectly safe these days. I received 5 units during surgery and one the following day. I am so grateful. I have many times attempted to donate blood but I am so squeamish, I still haven't. I hope to one day. Once I've done it once, I think I'll be ok to become a regular donor. Either that or they'll pick me up off the floor and ask me not to come back.

I can't think of too many sci-fi kits in 1/35 scale, so this is a welcomed surprise. The fact that you also get an extra five figures and ammo crates, ammo belts, table/work station, cups, bag, hand guns, jerry can, drivers helmet and markings is an added bonus.
The kit is a good size with just the hull part measuring about 25cm long and that does not include the added parts to the front section. There is no less than eighteen spurs/trees on this kit which can be seen on the instruction parts list which I have included as part of this review.
The figures are very nice, I would say they are better than Tamiya figures and close or even the same as dragon figures in quality. I have included a pic of the girl from the kit but have placed the helmet on her head (to do this required some modifications).
Another nice aspect of this kit is the anti skid markings on the hull. Also some of the hatches and doors are separate, so they could be left opened. An interior could be designed for the inside that would be partly viewable.
This kit is just asking for extra detail, as other items can be added to it from your left over 1/35 kit parts/ P.E parts from other unused kits.
Lastly one thing I like about this kit is I can paint it whatever colour I like, as it is a sci-fi kit. This kit will come up really well with some nice washes, chips and other weathering detail.
Highs: The detail is good on this kit as well as the five figures. The kit seems to fit its main parts together very well and the inclusion of seperate hatches is nice. At this point the detail and fit reminds me of a Tamiya kit.
Lows: Not really any lows but an interior would have been nice and maybe dry transfers. Also some english instructions would have been a nice inclusion.
Verdict: This kit is great, it's a welcomed sci-fi kit because of its design and scale. Its not often we get sci-fi kits with five figures included and many extras. At first look it appears to go together pretty well.

Good review Paul, I like the look of the crew, they have a lot of conversion potential.
Got mine from Starship Modeler today! Looks fantasic --- and yeah, big, too! I am a big fan of LVTs from WWII up through the present (and I guess, the future)... Whatever era, those suckers (and kits of them) are always BIG! Hey, Paul, where did you get that flight helmet for your female figure --- it looks fantastic! Thinking of painting mine either WWII Navy medium blue or a three color Iwo Jima scheme. Don't like the outrigger landing legs on the sides. I may do away with them or convert them to weapons pods... Anyway, got a scratchbuilt NYC Police hovertank waiting for paint (and the weather to get better) first... Thanks for the great review, Paul. Regards and Aloha, Johnny B.
Thanks, Paul! I will have to open the poly bags tonight when I get a chance... Hoping that this one will go together without a problem. I am tempted to add a little interior, but don't want to get sidetracked and bogged down --- especially since I plan to display the craft charging for the beach. Jason, how is the kit going together? Any hitches or snags...? Great job on the KV, by the way --- fantastic weathering!! Thanks again, guys! Much Aloha, Johnny B.
It would be awesome if you could build the forward command section so that you could open it up and add an interior later on, but I don't think that the kit is engineered in this fashion... I think it gets buttoned up with the hull sides. I might try to fake something of an interior, but just do not want to get bogged down doing this --- I really want to finish (and of course, start!) this kit! That being said, I am going to take the time to convert the outrigger legs to weapons pods, add a shield and roof to the minigun turret a couple of weapons and shields to the troop compartment --- so much for a "fast" build, huh...? I know that Bandai has a couple of more related sets --- I really hope that this kit sells well and that there are more of these cool 1/35th scale AFVs and figures (preferably futuristic Marines) on the horizon. the design and the detail of this one is waaay cool --- I want to see more!! And I am not even a Gundam guy! Much Aloha, Johnny B.
Quick update: this kit FLIES together!!!! The engineering is AMAZING! Was actually able to build about 90% of it while watching my sixteen month old and a three year old cousin. Fit is great for the most part and you barely need glue... My hat is off to Bandai --- I'm an armor guy and having been spolied by Tamiya over the years, I am tough to please... And while it is not perfect, I can say: this kit ROCKS! Much Aloha, Johnny B.
The kit is based on "08th MS Team" Gundam Spinoff and could be painted in this version. The crew also is based on characters from the same Anime.
There is a series of build logs over at fichtenfoo.com under the "Gone Fishing" tag; the build includes a full interior modeled after pictures from the series, which is missing from the kit (the bulkhead behind the cockpit in the kit was apparently added for structural rigidity, as it is not present in the interior images from the series).


I'm super psyched about my showcase lineup for Montreal. Partnering again with Access Film Music in their blue room. I'm not super psyched about the tiny hotel rooms.My usual audience is not going to fit into the room, I encourage you to come early to get a seat.
The first music was social music. Scientists have found musical instruments dating back 40,000 years or more, but anthropologists feel music is much older, maybe as much as half a million years, predating any recorded history, perhaps even language itself. There is something very elemental about making and sharing music.
My earliest musical experiences were my grandmother singing me to sleep. Soon, I was singing with her, it was a cornerstone of our bond. Not long afterward, I was singing in the congregation and later the choir at church. I got up in front of my 3rd grade class and sang a Beatle Song (If I Fell) acapella. I sang in the school bus on my way to day camp. (0n top of Spaghetti, Great Green Gobs, and other classics). Chorus in school, pep rallies, and much more. By the time I was in 8th grade, I was in my first rock band.
i became a professional musician, but most kids don't. Pretty much everybody loves to sing, or try to. Social music remains a great way to excite and engage human beings in group activities. Whether you are singing protest songs at a political rally, singing your grandchildren to sleep, or singing "You've Got a Friend" with James Taylor on the lawn of the Saratoga Performing Arts Center, making music in a group brings us closer together. Everyone can sing, not always well, but the important thing is the act of singing itself.
In my continuing work in music, I use social music in many ways, from encouraging audiences sing alongs to hosting open circles. Under the Big Orange Tarp, I used to bring a box of percussion instruments to festivals. Egg shakers, tambourines, bongo drums, claves, maracas, you name it. I drifted away from that because untrained musicians can be such poor time keepers. I like to attend drum circles with my pal Chadd Ferron. They are so fun, but they can be obtrusive late nights at your music festival or in urban settings. They may or may not be right for your constituency.
Singing songs together can be fantastic. From folk songs, protest songs, inspirational hymns to Late night Beatles jams in Gene Shay's room at NERFA. These always generate smiles and cameraderie. At Falcon Ridge this summer, Dan Navarro kicked off our loving tribute to David Glaser, Maggie Marshall, and Jimmy LaFave with a New Orleans style, second line processional from one side of the camp ground to the other, ending up at the Big Orange Tarp to kick off the tribute. The crowd was "All in" before our formal feature even began. Audience engagement and participation was fantastic.
Some venues have group sings after their shows these can be particularly powerful in small house concert situations. Ireland is all about the pub sings, where people haul their chairs over into a corner and play together. Orchestrated jam sessions provide a place where wannabe professionals can noodle around quietly, testing their musical ideas to see what works and what doesn't. When I was starting out, I always played along with records, but I can tell you first hand, that's not as exciting as playing along with people.
Many Americans are shy, socially inhibited, uncomfortable in their own skins it has been reported that many Of them fear public speaking more than they fear death. To stand in front of a group and speak extemporaneously is unthinkable for some, but to sing some Simon and Garfunkel or Phil Ochs, sharing that eloquence is far easier. So many people feel isolated and alone, unseen and unheard. They may not even realize it, but most people light up when they realize they are a part of something. It is natural to yearn for connection In a purely practical sense, you want customers coming back to consume your music, but trust me, that's feels great when you discover your events are serving people in a deeper and more meaningful way.
in my opinion, Folk Dance is making music with your body. our dance stage at Falcon Ridge has one of the most engaged and enthusiastic audiences that I know of. As a long time music listener, I can get mesmerized by a fantastic performance that I view only as a spectator, but the physical act of dancing is a full body, aerobic experience with a much broader emotional payload.
If you really want to see some fireworks, try workshopping some of the theatre games from Viola Spolin's classic book "Improvisation for the theater". Considered the Bible of Improvisational Comedy groups like the Second City or the Groundlings. It has been used with great success by musicians as well as actors and comics. It gets people laughing and thinking outside of the box.
However you decide to incorporate social music into your programming, the big win is in audience engagement and customer loyalty. Just as volunteerism brings people back in the doors, so does getting them to be music makers, not simply spectators.
I will update this with artist links before the conference.
Sunday several one on one mentorings available. Sign up at mentoring desk.
Discussing the plethora of streaming options and platforms coming online for musicians, ways to monetize those streams, the hardware and software necessary to look and sound good. Be there or be square. Also Join my facebook group Live Music Streamers.
It's been nearly 20 years since I attended Folk Alliance Regional Midwest (FARM). It was pretty anemic in those early days. (No juried showcases, no presenter presence…) it fell off of my annual calendar. But when I won conference admission in a raffle last year, I knew it was time to give it another try.
I'm not presenting a workshop this time thru, but I volunteered to do 5-6 hours of mentoring and I would be happy to discuss absolutely anything with you if you sign up. I believe the signup sheets will be available at Registration.
I'm also pleased to be presenting a Big Orange Tarp showcase round each night at the conference from 11:30-12 in the Access Film Music Room 124. Come give us a listen. Click the artist name to check out their website.
For nearly 30 years, technology and greed made possible the model which fueled the explosive growth of the independent music industry. Prior to around 1985, making records was an expensive and complicated process. You needed to rent expensive studio time to record, mix and master your recordings. Records were manufactured in factories called pressing plants and required expensive mothers and stampers to create the finished recordings. 12" jackets, sleeves, and liner notes were expensive to design and print.
But in the mid '80's the CD came out. They sounded better and lasted longer than vinyl albums, so the record companies decided to charge a premium for the format, but they cost less than half as much to manufacture. Meanwhile quality home recording studios were becoming affordable and desktop publishing put quality graphics design within reach of anyone who had the eye to create it.
And so the independent record labels and artists sprung into being. Radio and retail were still controlled by the Big 6 record distributors who hawked all the major labels, but the genie was out of the bottle and soon as many as 30% of record sales emanated from independents. Then the digital distribution sites like MP3.com and Napster were circumventing old school distribution entirely. It was an perfect storm of opportunity for the unsigned musician and they rushed in to take advantage of the windfall. Hundreds of musicians who had never seriously considered an original music career jumped at the chance to make their creative dreams come true. A model emerged that held for nearly 30 years where the average Jimi or Janis could write a dozen good songs (still the most important part of the equation), record them inexpensively, design and press their own CDs and derive about half of their annual income from the sale of these CDs at shows, over the internet, and (if they were lucky) maybe even thru conventional record stores.
With cheap, seemingly limitless bandwidth available, video is now the preferred medium for engaging your audience. And arguably the best delivery platform for your videos is YouTube.
2. Brand deals, Sponsorships, and product placement can also generate income for your YouTube channel. Advertisers and other entities who strongly resonate with your message may want a firmer relationship with you than pseudorandom occasional ad placements. These agreements are negotiated directly and there is no standard contract or pay scale, but they can be very lucrative. Read more here. Here's another article on Sponsorships. I think these have more income potential than AdSense, but if people are watching your content, there is no reason not to get the AdSense dollars too. And more tips on Sponsored content.
3. Affiliate marketing and hawking your own merchandise can also generate revenue for you. Online retailers like Amazon have affiliate programs where you earn a commission on buyers who you refer. This is a tangible benefit to the seller and it costs your buyer nothing extra. Amazon, eBay, and Rakuten have 3 of the best known affiliate programs, but there are many others. There are specialized musical gear affiliates programs thru Zzounds, Musicians Friend, Sam Ash, Guitar Center, and other companies that you can use to spotlight the products that you love and actually use. Commissions can range as high as 10%.
Your fans may no longer buy CDs, but they still wear clothing and jewelry. Sell them something they will use. You can sell custom printed or embroidered t-shirts, sweatshirts, hats, bandannas, and other clothing and jewelry items that make them a walking billboard for your music. You can sell your original paintings, woodcarvings, salves, potions, and other handmade items. You may be able to crossmarket and sell on commission the items made by your other artistic friends. Fullfillment can be done thru eBay, Etsy, or your own website.
4. Live Music Streaming is an ideal way to reach out to audiences old and new. The low opportunity cost of streaming makes it ideal for even the most cash strapped musicians. The 4 biggest enemies of the traveling musician are gas, food, lodging, and time. They are the negatives in every calculation of whether or not to take a gig. Some live-streaming sites charge admission. Many have built in tipping capabilities. Even the totally free streaming platforms like Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram can direct listeners to your other revenue generators. If you have a smartphone and an internet connection, the cost of live streaming is almost zero. All it takes is time. You can amortize that time by streaming your live gigs, rehearsal sessions or other musical chores. You can reach people who might never be willing or able to attend your gigs and turn them into fans. It's a great way to publicize your website, YouTube channel, merchandise, and crowdfunding campaigns. Learn more about live streaming here. Now is the time. Just like with YouTube, the early bird catches the worm. If you wait until everyone is live streaming, that marketplace is eventually going to be just as crowded as YouTube. Stake out your claim now in the electronic frontier.
5. Kickstarter, Indiegogo, and GoFundMe are popular crowdfunding sites. They help you leverage your fan base and others to finance projects you might not otherwise have the resources to even begin. Beyond giving your fans a way to participate in your next project, they also hold great potential for building public awareness for your work and your brand. Mounting a crowdfunding campaign can be tricky, here are some tips. Here are more. And more.
6. Premium Content appeals to your SuperFans. There are various ways to accomplish this. People like access to exclusive content. This can be anything from rough song demos and informal videos, Private members-only live streams on Periscope, Access to hidden videos on YouTube. Personal photos. Even members only email newsletters or exclusive merchandise. Don't lock away the Crown Jewels, but cater to the completist with a trove of materials that let them feel like the superfans that they are.
7. Patronage may be the ultimate way to recoup that lost income. America's income inequality continues to grow. The rich get richer and the poor get poorer. Some people have a LOT more disposable income than others. The simplest way to accomplish this may be with an honest discussion of the financial impediments standing in the way of the furtherance of your musical career and a simple PayPal.me link on your website or monthly newsletter. This could happen once in a blue moon or could be a perpetual link on your website. I have one on BigOrangeTarp.org that I never promote, but every once in a while, somebody sends me a little cash. It is never expected, but always appreciated.
Bonus: On Demand audio streaming thru subscription services like Spotify, Apple Music, and Pandora is one of the primary ways mainstream artists are monetizing their music. In a perfect world, the lost CD revenues would have just magically reappeared in this column as the CD sales dwindled. But the music industry's long tradition of fleecing artists was hard at work when these services came into being. There are executives with 6 figure incomes running these services who have never written a song in their lives, while prolific songwriters reap minuscule rewards. Like YouTube, a few creators make 5 figure incomes, the vast majority get paid very little. a hit on Spotify may pay the writer $3-5000, but few writers can support themselves with streaming income.
But there may be hope on the horizon. There is a bill before Congress right now that aims to bring streaming revenues up to a reasonable rate and end the excessive exploitation of the industry. It is called the Music Modernization Act. This is very good news. I don't know how soon it will take effect or exactly how dramatic a difference it will make, but consensus is that this should help a lot. All it needs now is the Presidents signature. He doesn't like to read, but it is assumed the bill will be signed into law without delay.
In the meantime, if your music is on Spotify, you will generate a lot more income if it is picked up by a popular playlist. Here is their wisdom on that. And here is some 3rd party advice. And one more… and here's this advice on what to do after you score a Playlist.
I'm thrilled to be returning to SERFA once again this week. If you want to catch up with me for some one on one time at the conference, let me know and we'll schedule something. I've been learning more and more about the live streaming opportunities that are out there and I'll have my MEVO event camera with me if anyone wants a demo.

Steelers Fan Paints Swastika on Team Flag Because NFL Protests During the Anthem Angered Him
By Tim Marcin On 9/29/17 at 11:02 AM EDT

A Pennsylvania man angry over the Pittsburgh Steelers' decision to stay in their locker room last Sunday responded by painting a swastika on a team flag.
Military veteran Anton Uhl of West Deer told local media it was disrespectful for the Steelers to sit out the anthem amid widespread protests in the NFL against the oppression of African-Americans. For some reason, he decided the best move from there was to paint the Nazi symbol on a flag outside his home. Neighbors called the media because, well, their neighbor had a Nazi flag outside his home.
"I'm upset [franchise owners] the Rooneys didn't want to participate in the national anthem, so to me they're anti-American," Uhl told WPXI in Pittsburgh, claiming his action was not driven by anti-Semitism.
The WPXI newscast reported that while neighbors were upset, they understood Uhl had the right to put up the flag. Uhl said he felt the players should have the right to demonstrate but not on an NFL field while working for team owners.

"If they want to demonstrate, they have every right to do that. Out of uniform in a public forum, not in a uniform representing the Rooneys," Uhl told the news station. "My choice, I find it was upsetting not to have patriotic participation."
The Steelers have drawn anger from both sides of the debate surrounding the NFL protests, which were started last year by quarterback Colin Kaepernick and brought back into the national conversation by President Donald Trump (who said any player who kneeled during the anthem was a "son of bitch" who should be fired). The president has kept the controversy going, tweeting about it this week with statements like "The NFL has all sorts of rules and regulations. The only way out for them is to set a rule that you can't kneel during our National Anthem!"
The Steelers didn't really participate in the protests and tried to avoid the issue by staying in the locker room during the anthem (as opposed to other teams that sat in the locker room in protest).
"We're not going to be divided by anything said by anyone," Pittsburgh coach Mike Tomlin said last Sunday. "Whatever we do, we're going to do 100 percent, we're going to do together. We're not going to let divisive times or divisive individuals affect our agenda.
"This collection of men, we're chasing something here in 2017," he continued. And we're not going to play politics. We're football players, we're football coaches. We're not participating in the anthem today, not to be disrespectful to the anthem but to remove ourselves from this circumstance. People shouldn't have to choose."
Eventually, Uhl said—kind of—that his Nazi flag was wrong. But he quickly got angry at NFL players again.
"I want to tell your viewers that I was wrong in placing a swastika on the Steelers' flag. The flag has been removed," he told WPXI in a statement. "I'm not apologizing, but should not have singled out just the Steelers. The swastika, a symbol of hate, should be worn by all the NFL players who do not stand for our nation's flag and anthem. If the players and owners want to demonstrate against President Trump and the disparity against races, then they should unite in uniform and march on Washington."
