Of course it's not only the money which is broken.
The music industry is also very crappy. Major pop stars rake in billions while most artists starve. There's only three record companies left, acting as gate keepers determining which sings get the payola to get radio play and Spotify basically gave up paying small artists in order to give Joe Rogan hundreds of millions of dollars.
Terrible situation.
So can bitcoin and lightning fix this?
Thus the after party here in Manchester.
Musicians and rappers at the event embrace V4V, value for value. Busking on the internet. Payment links on screen and on the live stream as they play.
Ainsley Costello tells us that her first song on fountain.fm made her a million sats, way more than any Spotify stream could make even if they still paid small artists.
She played us that song and then a whole range of artists took to the stage, live streamed over nostr, with donations coming in from all over the world.
All of them were talented and entertaining, but in particular Green Sands were tight and energetic and rocking, Edwin Williamson was deep and baritone and country, Roger 9000 really pumped the crowd with his bitcoin based songs and great tiny digital guitar and The Crypto raptor gets a special mention.
It was a really fun party, with musicians who all believe there is a better way than the terrible music industry.
Fast change overs and short sets means there were like ten acts in four hours among a friendly crowd in a dirty dive bar who all shared this common cause.
Full act list, all of whom are with checking out.

I know everyone’s already dragging the living shit out of this already but 🤷🏻♀️:
All ICE/BP should have:
Clearly marked vehicles
Clearly marked names on uniforms (large TEXT for both)
ID/badges
Dismissal and/or prosecution for failing to comply.
QR codes are just unneeded “tech” complication
The current regime talks a lot of shit about ID being required to vote, but is fine with armed agents of the govt having less ID than a teen trying (and failing) to…
@… The most obvious candidates would be BZip2 (Method 12) or XZ (Method 95). BZip2 is pretty widespread, well supported by a range of tools and was first introduced into the Zip APPNOTE.TXT (the official Specification) in 2001. Despite being around for almost 25 years in the spec, MS be like 🤷. Indeed for a long time Apple did not even support Deflate…
You see a detective on the TV and he’s interviewing all the suspects asking them what they were doing on the night of the murder a month ago last Tuesday night.
And on the TV, the suspects all know. Right away.
If you asked me ten years ago though, I’d have had barely any clue. If you’re lucky it’d have been something planned in my calendar but mostly, dunno. Watching TV maybe? No idea what show. Was that a night I was in the pub?
As we all get older this problem increases I’m told. Eventually full on senility sets in.
But what if you have already built the habit to record what you’re doing? To be able to look back and revise and review how you spent your days? An external aid as a crutch to your own forgetful brain’s cortex?
So I started this Exocortex Log over a decade ago and now I can answer: Ten years ago on Tuesday I was having dinner with the guitarist from my band and his girlfriend and they burned the pudding.
The app has been half finished and barely able to even record let alone review for most of that time, but now it’s ready enough that someone else might use it too if they want.

Looking for a citation. I used to have it and cannot find it. This diagram of two half circles depicts a world ending and a world emerging. I saw it on a poster in a video of lady giving a talk. I don't think it was a Youtube. I've searched through my history and my files and I don't where I put this info.
She is an activist. Anyone know who she is? Or have an early source of this diagram? (I'm less interested in folks who have ripped her work without citation). Thank …
