for those of you who aren't familiar with garageband.com, it is a website that allows bands to upload their songs for review by their peers. their peers then rate them on a 5 point scale and songs either climb, or fall on the charts based on it's reviews. it's a great tool for the indie band trying to get advice on certain aspects of their songs, to see what works and what doesn't. try it and you'll love it, it's a great way to find new hot talent on the web.

you can now purchase "barley soup for the funky-ass soul" from the itunes store. just download itunes for free from the internet and search "big wheel and the spokes"...the songs are a buck a piece, but you don't get the album art, or cd quality....but the ease of it is almost impossible to pass up!! what are you waiting for??
