Darren Barefoot strikes again.
Darren has created a site DearRockers.org for paying back musicians–in particular the musicians whose music we download and don’t pay for. I can’t imagine who these people are!
Here’s how it works:
1. Pick a musician
2. Write them a letter
3. Scan or photograph the letter and send it to Dearrockers.org
4. Mail your letter with 5 bucks
5. Enjoy your new, guilt-free life
Here’s my letter to Wolf Parade.
Quote:
Dear Wolf Parade,
Your tunes are awesome!!!
I don’t have any apologies to the Queen Mary but maybe an apology to you. I like your music so much that I am willing to go to any means to get it. So for any songs I might or may download free …
Here are a couple of Queens.
I’ll send a fiver instead of coins. But there’s a dude on the $5, which means my Queen reference doesn’t work. Oh well.
