Business Deal Band Lotto is back!!!!!!
We’re doing it again, this time it’s more complicated!
For those of you who don’t know the Band Lotto is a musical experiment/experience where you are randomly selected to form bands with friends and strangers and then expected to play random instruments. This time we are also going to assign you random topics to write about and this year we are even going to choose random music genres that you must play them in. It’s going to be restrictive as hell! Finally you will be liberated from the void of creative uncertainty. We’re going to give you sweet wonderful rules to follow (or to bend, tweak, massage and blur.) If you want the freedom to do whatever you want this is not the place to do it. That is what you do in your regular band. This is an experiment. We want to see just how amazing a song you can write about orphans with three drummers and a keyboard playing polka (for example.) It’s all going to be random, and insane, and pressure-free. Last year we had people who have never played an instrument in their lives sign up and make fantastic music. And plenty of people played instruments they had never touched before.
Stay tuned for more info!!
