there's a Mega Upload Party Wake for Michael Paul Miller on May 8th. Time or times TBA.

ANY 61 artist who wishes to join in should wall post their song name and band name on KosmikRay 's wall. There are 54 bands confirmed so far and hopefully the number will round out at an even 100.

To silkworm and SYB, yes, some money goes to the bands when you play songs on Rhapsody trough cdbaby, it's not much, but still.
Hope you listen to Zuba on rhapsody as well!!!

Still don't know the answer to the question below.We certainly get more if someone buys the CD via paypal from our own website www.sambayabamba.com ,but I doubt there is anything for plays anywhere.I let you know if and when.

I've got a question for you. I've seen your album on Rhapsody - do you guys earn any money from that when people play your songs? I'm sure it's better to buy the tracks but I'm wondering if playing the songs also helps at all.

Thanks again for the great tunes, glad to have discovered you here!
