I would buy Veruca Salt and Seals/Crofts. Own Fuel, Soul Asylum, Bodeans, 10,000 Maniacs and some lame sucky soundtracks.

Assuming the double negative wasn't intentional...

Someone posted a "Do not Never apply for these jobs list"...

Number 1 was working for a record store.

Number 2, 3, and 4 had to do with buying albums.

Even Musical Instrument stores are seeing the shite end of this deal - and I hate that, but playing music is turning into the visual art business. My best guess is that it's going to get much worse.

The Eagles and STP kinda surprise me from a sales standpoint. I understand that lots of people don't like them but I would figure that they wouldn't have much trouble moving their albums.

The Grifters were a bad arse 90's band out of Memphis... Blues/Noise/Rock...

I can understand being on this list, due to limited sell on value...

So albums from the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80, 90s, and 00s don't sell well? How are they even in business?

I mean, they tour a lot and he's making a shite ton of money so it's working out great for him. He used to play bass for Pat Green and actually left Pat for the Bodeans.


A shite ton of money, I doubt it. Besides the outside fest gigs I doubt they're playing in front of more than a couple hundred people a night if that. Since Sammy left it should just be called the Kurt Neumann Band but I suppose then nobody would show up.

Like how much money? I'm not mad, I was just thinking that a Bodeans tour at this point would be not much more than a break even proposition. I'm actually from Waukesha and it was pretty awesome when Love and Hope and Sex and Dreams hit. I heard they came out with a new album in June and they played here at Summerfest but there hasn't been a buzz around here at all.
