@corythanson we got asked to write a song for the first Lego movie and were summarily beaten by Tegan and Sarah. I felt less bad about it when they get nominated for an Oscar for it…or did I?

@MollyJongFast Double patriot points! AlexJones is gonna need to sell a lot of crappy vitamins.

[Rogue Wave @roguewaveband]

I would pay more for a streaming service if artists were paid more equitably. Would you?

[Rogue Wave @roguewaveband]

@pattonoswalt @PhilRosenthal that slaps

@dada_drummer amen

So @okkervilriver tour budget is in the red an estimated $15k-$21k and that’s if everything goes according to plan - from @stereogum

.@AnmlCollective will not be going on tour in the United Kingdom and Europe this year. "Preparing for this tour we were looking at an economic reality that simply does not work and is not sustainable," the band explained. https://t.co/NFn27VkvH5

[Damon K 🎤 @dada_drummer]

Every musician facing issues touring: we need to make recorded music economically viable again. Join us @UMAW_ we are working hard to change this for all of us

[Peter Kalmus @ClimateHuman]

It's not about "the environment." Stop using this phrase. It's about whether life on Earth collapses into a shadow of its former magnificence. It's about whether humankind thrives and evolves, or descends into a long and brutal dark age on a less habitable planet.

@thebenlovett @bruckmachina Congrats Ben))) so proud of your success!!!

[Rogue Wave @roguewaveband]

Artists are often told to stop complaining about the revenue model of streaming and embrace live touring as their primary means of earning a living. But there’s even less protections in place there… https://t.co/3ydz2RE3Pa

Oh boy this is great: https://t.co/vyHNSFQF4V

Support @RepRashida and @UMAW_ 's proposal for a new streaming royalty, paid by platforms directly to recording musicians. Fair pay for our labor! Write to your congresspeople here: https://t.co/ZrJ4JyADZw

[Damon K 🎤 @dada_drummer]

"Couple this with pitiful income from streaming, and the mounting cost of living..." Too many musicians are finding themselves at a breaking point. We need to back the screws off, and one way is to be paid fairly for streaming. Everyone making recorded music needs this NOW

@thewrens @btweenlovenlike @nabilayers I’m reminded of the film Step Brothers: “Did we just become best friends?”
