Title: Musician on big stages promoting bitcoin
Post by: akam on March 23, 2013, 03:29:11 PM
Hi all,

I'm aiming to play my music on big stages around the world, and i hope you'll agree from the following video that i have the songs to pull it off;

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aycGGgYde48

So if you agree, for any donation amount to my bitcoin wallet I will send you my full album with 26 songs on it. I've followed bitcoin for I think 3 years now so i'm happy to see it taking off and will continue to put my efforts towards its global recognition, as I'm sure it is one of the keys to bringing about a prosperous future for all people and cultures on planet earth!

any support of my music will be greatly appreciated and will allow me to take my music on the road!

Thanks
Kevin

PS. Mods, could you keep this post in this forum as opposed to moving it to digital goods? I feel it is relevant to the overall discussion to tie in music generally with the bitcoin ethos.

Why? Except for the fact that you're accepting donations in Bitcoin,
this seems like it has very little to do with the bitcoin community and more to do with promoting your own musical project. Maybe if the songs were about Bitcoin... but they're not.

I would probably end up moving it if I were a mod. Just saying.

Well it is about promoting my music but i'm a big proponent of bitcoin, so i think music and bitcoin is part of the revolution that deserves being in the main discussion forum, and if i become well known the bitcoin community will benifit also. Not that without my input bitcoin wont become widely adopted as it is clearly on its way to world wide adoption...anyway, i like music and i like bitcoin and i think it's the best method for musicians and artists to have a sustainable career without middlemen.

Okay then maybe a thread on how Bitcoin enables musicians to have sustainable careers without middlemen should have been the topic of discussion. Not specifically about your music, which it is currently and has little to do with the rest of us.

I like music as much as anyone else, but I wouldn't put a plug in for my own music in this forum. I'd put it where it would ultimately go anyway. No offense. And your music's not bad.

If we're just going to promote our music on here then please go check out mine here www.listentotoby.com and donate here: 1J3kkU4goRGkNV6vokBgS7DQ7akPuQvNn4

Keep doing your thing though man...I do think that it would be more relevant if the song was actually about Bitcoin.  Either way I hope your music is another step towards making it possible for musicians to survive without any intermediary and make it easier for a global fan base to contribute and be part of your project instantly.  Best of luck..
