kirchzep27 Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 I had heard that apparently their fans had funded one of their tours to the -united states through ticket sales or something. But -los lobos has been around a long time and just got out of their record contract and went into the internet sales and sefl promotion, it seems like the best thing to do for many bands out there. And hey, something like, that gets the fans involved...pretty cool idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cletus Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 I love all the albums they did with Fish as their lead singer. Not really that familiar with their catalog once he left, and was replaced by Steve Hogarth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Symbol Posted July 28, 2008 Author Share Posted July 28, 2008 Well if anyone is feeling creative and has a video camera, this is an easy way of potentially bagging yourself five grand! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hand_Of_Omega_91 Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 I think Ozzy Osbourne did something similar last year with the "I Dont't Wanna Stop" video. Its a good idea I think, unfortunately I'm not gifted with video cameras/editing software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
