I wish I was a musician. Or that my brother would stop dragging his feet and get his arse on here! I've been refraining from posting his videos lately because he keeps assuring me that he plans to open an account soon and I don't want to run him out of stored material, lol!
Point your phone at him, make him say Open Mic 30, record him playing and post it on your account. Then show him what you earned. That has gotten musicians to start an account before and it will work with your brother too.
You would think so! But I've made over twenty bucks on some of the posts I've put up of him playing, he's seen it, he loves the idea, but he's still dragging his feet. And he has a ready made audience here, I've become quite friendly with a number of people in the music community who are waiting for his arrival and really enjoy his stuff :) To be fair, he and his wife had their first baby in December so he's been preoccupied. He just started playing gigs out at bars again, so now I think it should only be a matter of time.
Oh yea, I remember now and have upvoted some of those posts myself. Silly brother, but I know how it feels sometimes. I used to play so many shows and got burnt out and needed a break too.
Cool and thank you. Are you going to jump in?

I also remember some of the those! Your bro has a wicked voice colour!
