Location: GA USA | Hey, I got about half a dozen invitations from OFC members to join Fandalism, sort of the made-for-facebook network of "good musicians". They said something like "(Name) said you are a great musician and invited you to join Fandalism". Once I quit laughing, I did join. Thanks for the invites.
After a short while I decided it didn't really hold any benefit for me and deleted the app. I've got the Youtube channel and Soundcloud already. There have been a number of things like that such as LinkedIn, Elance etc. where I just didn't see the reason to keep throwing my name and information all over the web for no reason.
But I wanted to say thanks for all the fish. |

Location: GA USA | They were coming from people I know who had their own profiles, so I didn't mind trying it out. The "great" part I had to take with a grain of salt. |

Location: Flahdaw | Yeah, when I see "G8r thinks you are a great musician..." I said, this has got to be a load of crap, and deleted it immediately. |

Location: Utah | It looks legit aside from being a FaceBook App. I don't allow any apps on my FB, but this one sucked me in. As Old Man Arthur said about it, it is a way to see other people's music. I don't have anything up, nor are there any imminent plans to put anything up. But I'll listen to your stuff if you post it. |

Location: GA USA | It okay I think. A place to show your music and pix. I'm already doing that in a few places, and all I really did was link my Youtube videos. The founder may be making money by gathering info for facebook. I don't know. There seems to be no way to delete your account. I changed my name to Jabooty Ingraham and the old page seems to have gone away. Now Jabooty has a blank page that contains my FB profile pic. |

Location: Connersville, Indiana | <p>Mike, I have 6 songs up on it, 3 from my cd A CRY FOR HELP, and three from my next cd GUITAR MANN. I just pushed the buttons it told me to, I really hope I didn't spam anyone. If I did, I'm sorry that was not my intention after reading this thread.</p>

Neither do I. Even if it's from legit friends and the 'app' looks OK, if it asks me to allow access to my information - I'm outta there. |

Location: Northwest Arkansas | I checked out your stuff Kit. I like it. I guess you used your O's. Mine is still raw. I just did it on my home studio(not mastered) and then burned it directly to cd. I still have to add words and drums to Swamp. |
