Happy 150th birthday, Maurice Ravel! 🎂🎂🎂

[Cory Booker @CoryBooker]

Lift every voice and sing,
Till earth and heaven ring,
Ring with the harmonies of Liberty;
Let our rejoicing rise
High as the list’ning skies,
Let it resound loud as the rolling sea.
Sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught us,
Sing a song full of the hope that the present has brought us;
Facing the rising sun of our new day begun,
Let us march on till victory is won.

Stony the road we trod,
Bitter the chast’ning rod,
Felt in the days when hope unborn had died;
Yet with a steady beat,
Have not our weary feet
Come to the place for which our fathers sighed?
We have come over a way that with tears has been watered.
We have come, treading our path through the blood of the slaughtered,
Out from the gloomy past,
Till now we stand at last
Where the white gleam of our bright star is cast.

God of our weary years,
God of our silent tears,
Thou who hast brought us thus far on the way;
Thou who hast by Thy might,
Led us into the light,
Keep us forever in the path, we pray.
Lest our feet stray from the places, our God, where we met Thee,
Lest our hearts, drunk with the wine of the world, we forget Thee;
Shadowed beneath Thy hand,
May we forever stand,
True to our God,
True to our native land.

What an incredible way to help bands make some money. We all know, they have minimal opportunities with the structure of the business.

[Tim Burgess @Tim_Burgess]

We’ve been having a think and we always had lots of spare t shirts / records etc after a tour.
What if we did a Help Us Help Bands Merch Market (all stalls free of charge with zero commission). I sort a venue (Manchester to start with), get some DJs n’that and we see how it goes

Long but very clear description of the music industry structure. Thanks Steve Albini.

In honor of Steve Albini's passing today, here's his brilliant and still-relevant (sadly) "The Problem with Music"
