Dobbs vs Aarons in Blythe California
I stopped by the new Aaron’s store today in Blythe California and checked out their prices… Sheesh… The total cost to own a 32″ LCD TV after renting it for two years is over a grand!
F that.. Dobbs has similar 32″ LCD TV’s for the same cash price. Plus I could buy the same or better unit with credit, which after the loan amoterization is much less…
I would rather be dipped in S*** then give money to an out of town company anyways. Dobbs has been in this valley for decades!
I bought my first cassette tape from John Dobbs (ya, remember 8-tracks and lp’s) and his dad Bucky gave my family’s business work for many years (John even gave me a computer job once).
Dobbs Furniture and Appliance’s in Blythe California is a local family owned business that not only deserves our business but needs it.
Shop Local and with a family owned business! Or support some corporation that really does’n’t give a s*** about you and really has no reason to care about this little town in the desert, other than finding a way to make their profit margin rise.
Songwriters and musicians.. Register your stuff!
Tonight I had a conversation with Laypig over at Layzpig.com.
We found out, after pouring over the legal verbiage of various Performing Rights Organizations (PRO). It appears you need to be careful when you publish your music online, and realize that what you post to various sites on the internet might become property of the public domain. Sure you will get exposure which could mean BIG BUCKS, but ya just might lose out if your stuck in a rut and can’t come up with new material.
So, if you have a song that you think is really good, and you did all the work on it yourself (or really love your band mate’s or co-writer’s and have that trust thing goin on) – ya just might not want to start showing your wicked new jams off till you have fully researched the details of what you might be losing. In case you want to do a bit a researching yourself I have provided the links below:
Performing Rights Organiztion that I know of in the USA:
Self Publishing Sites that I know of so far (or feel like digging up at the moment):
Bandcamp
Soundclick
Riffworld
Ourstage
Public Record
Jango Online Radio
Songcast
OK, Im not Aesop, But! The moral of this post is: Read all the terms and services agreements you are getting ready to click before you click em… =)
