Yeah, and sadly more often than not they chew you up and spit you out......It's ruined a lot of people's perception on being in a band and making music.....
We were able to negotiate our contract to get everything we wanted, forgetting that if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is......Well, I guess after losing over 7 grand you live and learn....... My buddy actually went down to L.A. to find the guy who runs the label that signed us....He waited outside of the place where the company has it's P.O. Box until he heard the guy on his cell phone and recognized his voice.......The guy was getting out of his SUV and my buddy called out his name....Dood jumped back in and peeled out of there....He MASHED into someone's car and took off....The guy who's car it was got totally pissed understandably.....My buddy gave him the guys name and cell phone number.....He was reported to the police where they found out he was driving with no license and no insurance......Haven't heard about the aftermath of that one, but dammit, he deserves whatever he gets.......Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy....:D

I have a female friend who is a singer. I've gone to many recording sessions with her in NY, and she just signed with some dudes in hopes of at least getting a single out...but in the studio, they pretty much stripped her of any creative control whatsoever. They were more interested in her look. There is nothing more frustrating than if you are a stifled artist. Also, regarding the same person -- but on a totally different level or how shady the music biz can be -- she was in a limo with a bunch of dudes who were telling her all this bullshit, and literally whipped out their CACKS! like it was no big deal...fully expecting her to oblige them. THAT'S phucked up...yet not too surprising.

You gotta understand, when you play shows for 4 years and keep recording just demos. A band gets desperate and just wants to put out a real album. The chances of a BIG break are 1 and a million. Even if you're band is fucking great. I'll hold out until I can't hold anymore... Meanwhile shitty bands get picked up faster than I can write this post

No positive experiences but I don't really ask about labels because I don't trust any. But that gives me a good idea, why not ask?
