@postmodernla Thanks Blaine! This is a really useful tip for future. I am a fan of a lot of the artists at Like! I know I am being a bit bold, but I don’t have any management right now, but I do have a strong international base and millions of streams. I wonder if you’d be up for a chat?
I’ve been getting messages from disappointed fans that I haven’t announced any concerts in the US on upcoming tours…
Not that I don’t love ya… but visa processing and legal fees to gain entry to play in US cost roughly $5970, and I pay 30% withholding tax on all income.
Though I have thousands of active fans and many more streamers in your country, I just can’t afford to loose money touring there anymore. I used to tour (lose money) in the US quite a bit. Those days are behind me. I am also disappointed about it. I hope you can come to me 😘

Oh gosh… I haven’t been here in a while. How is everyone doing?
I’ve been busy making lots of new things. Debut of a new band and a full concert of new songs in Wrocław, Poland on March 19!
Then off to Mexico for a new string quartet project in Zacatecas and Aguascalientes!!
@cibc Unacceptable. Your corporate choice to underfund telephone communications is a choice to spend my time instead of your money. I would like some kind of remuneration for the 2.5 hours lost on my one day off this week. I had plans.
@bencaplanmusic Hi Ben, we don't mean to make you wait. For these cases we will require a phone call in order to assist. We can assure you that we are doing everything we can to reduce call volumes, and we appreciate your patience. ^Simon
@cibc both of my credit cards have been frozen while I am working abroad and I have been on hold with your number for almost 2 hours… can someone please help me? My whole day is upside down.
We're in Bergen! My touring companion Karla and I are just enjoying a hike in the mountains before tomorrow's show. Then onwards to Oslo, Trondheim, Stockholm, Warsaw, etc. etc. etc.
I'm just tired. I'm unemployed and I've never recieved any real job offer.
I'm Palestinian. I live in Gaza. I'm a pretty good video editor. I'm ready to work with the lowest price possible. You can send me ur raw videos & I will edit them for free at first to show you my skills.
