Well, to some what go against what stenners said record sales are what keeps a mainstream band alive essentially if their poor sales generally that means they are starting to fall out of the limelight. Record Sales in a sense are like a way of showing if there is still people who like LP enough to buy their stuff or not.
With that said WB obviously whores up the money and buying just the cds really wont keep LP up on the money side of things. If u wanna suppourt them Like stenners said buy band merch, go to shows, (if they have EP's) get em, lol if LP was a smaller local band id say donate but yea lol.
I havent been able to go to a show, cuz its always a little to far from where im at. but ive gotten friends to buy a hoodie, and like 4 shirts from their shows near by before.

Yup, got the dvd edition too.:thumbsup:Back in May, when MTM leaked a few days before its release, my friend downloaded it (as did serveral of you) and she said she'd promise to go out and buy it when it was released, she only downloaded it cause she just couldnt wait.
I was talking to her last night, and i asked if she had actually bought it, to which she said "lol, nope, still not got around to getting it yet"
hehe, so its now August, 3months after the release, and i was wondering how many of you who downloaded it and said they'd buy it when it came out, actually kept your promise?

nope, but i bought a MTM shirt, which was 4 dollar more so thats good enough.
Depends if they release the EP's threw the same record label, often EP's are tour EPs and are done from the bands pocket. But of course this again dont apply to mainstream bands but the bands I follow make nice lil money out of it and the EPs have a very home made feel to them & therefor will be worth more in the future if they do make it bigI bought a copy of CD/DVD
Also usually major record companies still get most profit from EPs as well...you should know that Stenners

Of course I kept my promise. I DID buy the album and I would also buy the DVD if it was available here. Well, it might be available in a few months so I will buy it then. And I do it, not because I wanna make Warner richer, it's not all about money in this world... I do it because the band know what the actual sales of the album are and I guess when the sales increase they will feel gratified and proud to know that all their hard work has actually paid off. It's my way of showing them I appreciate them and also my thanks to them for busting their ***** in the studio for so many months in order to give us great music.
