Makin' money or music?
Published on 29/08/05

Self-styled Sydney music impresario Phil Tripp and some random called Talkshow Boy give their take on the music industry in the latest issue of Sydney website/mag Mess & Noise. Obviously, Tripp’s article is a plug in the leadup to his upcoming music biz conference in Sydney, targeted at people who want to make big money from their music. He’s caught up in that to the point that he makes this comment.
“I don’t go to gigs so I don’t have to suffer the shoegazer bands that have no performance potential…”
Talkshow Boy might not make you a truckload of cash, he might not even make great music, but his optimistic article is totally refreshing, and in the increasingly participatory world we live in, where labels have to spend massive amounts to recoup investments and many artists struggle to break even over time, his take of just making music and getting it out there is pretty compelling.
That's it. What Next?
