M&H 17 – Metal Business with Georg Neuhauser
Pia and Kiki discuss their views on today’s music industry, especially the Heavy Metal industry. After discussing the topic of streaming services on several of our interviews, we wanted to talk about the concept and about how musicians can still make money with their art. When Georg Neuhauser (of SERENITY-fame) told us how much a tour bus costs, we wanted to spread the word in order to encourage metalheads to support their favorite bands going to shows, buying merch, etc. And we also have some ideas for bands to make some more cash.
