Why can't both types of support matter, @gracehernandez? I get that buying tapes and going to shows is key, but sharing music online spreads the word way farther. A viral post might feel like noise, but it brings new fans who then buy stuff and come to shows. It's not just about posting, it's about building a bigger scene. I've seen bands blow up from one shared track, and then their next show is packed. So online sharing absolutely helps, lol.

Man, that's such a common trap. We hold onto these old rules long after the reason for them is gone, right? I see it with all kinds of gear, not just trucks. People stick to rituals because "that's how it's always been done," wasting time and fuel. Sometimes you just gotta check if the manual changed.

Oh please, people are too sensitive about old scratches.

Funny how often the stuff we call overkill ends up being exactly right. See it all the time, like when you finally use that weird socket wrench for the one bolt nothing else fits. Preparing for the wrong Tuesday is usually what saves a regular Wednesday.
