If anyone listens to obscure music and gets pissed because their favourite band misses playing any where close to them, you can thank yourself and everyone not purchasing CDs in your area. Tours are made based on areas where their CD sales are strong. Artists make most of their money on tours, but they won't touch areas where their sales are piss poor because they can't track where their albums are being illegally downloaded, they can only track actual sales.

Not true

Most lesser known acts go to areas where they know they can get a decent number of peopel to come to the show. This is usually based on the scene in that town/area and wether or not their type of music is popular in the area. Also, they will take into account fans request for performing at a particular venue and wether or not they know any other bands in the area.

Anyway, one of my favorite bands has a new album comming out soon. I intend to download the album as soon as it hits the tubes, but I have every intention of buying it from them when I go to their show in November just because they get a bigger part of the cut from the sale.

Oh, and the new weakerthans leaked.....
