The Last Bass Outpost

Well since no one else seems to want to do it :P I will organise it if everyone is happy with that arrangement.
-
Thanks for stepping up. I suspect you'll get some offers of help once things start moving along.
-
Well, since I've got a CD in the works, I don't think the band would mind letting a song out. I also recorded with the Embassy, so it fits with this crowd. 8)
-
Is there a deadline?
-
As far as deadlines go I figure we first find out who is interested in contributing. Then get an idea who has songs ready to go, who has songs currently in the works (Uwe obviously falls into this category) and who wants a bit of time to get something together. To start with I dont think its that important to rush things but as we go along I will make deadlines clear.
Over the next week or so it would be good if those interested make a comment in this thread to that effect.
-
I will contribute a song.
I guess what is the best quality & how to submit them is next?
Shipping 100+ CD's from Australia might be pricey?
Another thing is maybe not even bothering with a hard copy?
Doing it all digital makes life easy.
-
I'm in to.
I've recorded 9 out of 11 songs on Kharma Baby on my Les Paul Bass.
One song was recorded on the Epiphone Jack Casady Signature with Gibson Les Paul Bass pickup.
So we could choose any of these songs for my contribution.
-
Good points John. I was thinking of having a digital end product. Mediafire, Soundclick or Bandcamp being options for hosting. Or all three I guess.
For those interested in seeing what this will look like here is a list of those sites. If you have a different music hosting site that you think is good feel free to let me know.
Barkless Dog on Soundclick
http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=578947&content=music (http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=578947&content=music)
Dudepit CD on Mediafire
http://www.mediafire.com/?tsaa35exj1i4rry (http://www.mediafire.com/?tsaa35exj1i4rry)
One of my original projects on Bandcamp
http://88mphaustralia.bandcamp.com/album/vanishing-point (http://88mphaustralia.bandcamp.com/album/vanishing-point)
I can do a cover/sleeve in pdf for download with all the required details as per Robs effort on the last CD. Probably not quite as good as his but I promise it wont be bad. 8). *Edit: Unless Rob would like to do that part of it again?
This way people can download the Audio and jacket themselves if they want to make a stack of CD's, or just one for the CD rack.
I can setup some ftp space for contributors to upload audio files to.
File formats preferably AIFF, WAV or Flac
I have asked my producer/engineer mate Scotty if he will master it and he has agreed. He is very experienced and I'm very comfortable that he will do a great job as usual.
-
Online hosting is fine, one thing to keep in mind is that the various hosts have limits on free accounts. It may be a size limit per upload or a total account limit. Or a time limit -- e.g. with my free Mediafire account, I have to log in at least once every 30 days to keep my files up.
-
I should be able to contribute a song this time ;)
-
I have some Boilersuit T-bird songs..
-
How about a Doug Fyghter tune ;)
-
Unless Rob would like to do that part of it again?
Whatever you want Bret.
If you would like to do it yourself, please do.
And if you'd rather have me do it, that's okay to.
-
I 'd love to be involved - I'll mention this to the guys I'm working with tomorrow and see what they say... I have some live stuff from last year with the fretless RD that I might be able to edit... It would be nice to get some new studio stuff, so... more relevant... nice to get the Peter Cook involved...?

Thanks Dave, I wasn't aware of the 30 days thing with Mediafire.
The Bandcamp one is free and doesnt require frequent logins.

I can contribute too, and if there's anything I can do to help let me know.
-
Thanks Joe

I'd like to contribute one. It's written. Needs to be recorded.
-
Thanks George.

I'm sure I can dig up something. Are we continuing the "Gibson basses only" format?
-
No this is not restricted to Gibson only but due to peer pressure I will be submitting a track with my Epi if ya know what I mean? ;) ;D
Billy = +1 to the above list
-
I'll see what I can contribute - my best recordings are mono of a live performance.
-
This will probably be done before I'm able to contribute anything. I'm still unpacking and making repairs.
-
The album I played bass on a few weeks ago is still to be completed and mastered, but I should be able to grab a track in the next few weeks. My chosen track will feature either the Musicman Big Al, DarkStar P bass or the Nash P bass.
-
No worries Mark, I dont think we have to have a tight deadline on this. I will wait until I have a good idea who wants to contribute and when they can have songs ready by and once I have a clearer idea of this I will suggest a time frame.
Dave, see how you go. You may yet have the time you need.
No word from Uwe yet. :popcorn:
-
I am not sure if I will contribute, but since my wife is a graphic designer and she has experience on cd covers and stuff, I can ask her to make the cover and the booklet.
-
Thanks exiledarchangel. I have one of them myself. Wife that is who is a graphics/publishing/marketing type person. :)
-
I'll contribute something from the Raintunes once we've finished what we have been working on.

Do you guys have a planned completion date?
-
Everything should be done by end of November, it's not supposed to be Chinese Democracy II!
-
So it would be a christmas cd then? :P
-
I'm down - love to contribute a song!
-
Everything should be done by end of November, it's not supposed to be Chinese Democracy II!
:mrgreen: No probs, The Bassplayers Democratic Republicc of Outpost has filed your information for future reference ;)
Seriously though it would be good to get as many people included as is practical and a lot of people have works in progress like yourself so I just want to get an idea of a rough timeframe.
-
I'm interested too! Does it have to be an original song or can it be one previously recorded?
-
Original or cover, old recording or fresh from the protool - anything goes.
-
As far as a digital album is concerned then we are obliged to abide by the hosting companys policies.
Most of them quote something similar to the Bandcamp one here:
http://bandcamp.com/copyright (http://bandcamp.com/copyright)
An option would be to have 2 versions. One digital online and the other a seperate CD only which includes covers.
I dunno, opinions, suggestions, ideas?
-
Personally, I think all-original is the way to go. I should have piped up earlier, but I've been super-busy. At the very beginning of my re-entry into music in 2002 I recorded some covers, but never looked into the legality of making them public, instead opting for the lazy way out - to do all original music. I have recently recorded a couple of covers for the first time in eight years, and have begun looking in to releasing them legally. But again, I'm lazy, so I haven't gotten very far. Anyway, that's my two cents on the originals vs. covers issue.
I would also love to participate in the project - sorry for my late entry. I have stuff in the can - I have some short sketches that I could contribute or longer pieces. Also gotta look into copyrighting my own stuff!
-
This CD won't be sold. I don't see how it infringes on anyone's copyright. It's not commercial use.
To give you some idea of distribution, I see that there have been 32 downloads of the Pit CD I put up on Mediafire. Add that to the ones mailed out originally and I'm pretty sure the total is under 100.
-
This CD won't be sold. I don't see how it infringes on anyone's copyright. It's not commercial use.
I'm not sure that's true. I'm no expert, but in The Indie Band Survival Guide, it states, "When you record a cover song, you need to obtain a mechanical license from the author/publisher and pay the requisite fees... As outlined above, it doesn't matter if a song is given away for free or used as a promo, a copy is a copy, and to avoid an infringement claim, you're supposed to obtain a license." (page 194)
I finally found the section referred to in this quote - it's on page 164, and states, "Recording someone else's song requires a license. This license is needed even if you're just giving the cover song away for free."
Whether someone would ever crack down on the Outpost is another matter, but I think we should be aware that including covers is problematic. I hate to be the bearer of bad news! :-[
-
I'm no expert either, but giving away promos is commercial use. That's not what we're doing.
There was music copyrighted by others on the Pit CD. No issue has ever come up.

Mono wont be a problem Al. What kind of quality is the recording?
-
I'll play.
Can I e-mail an mp3?

Ssssssshhhhhhhh... There are lawyers listening!
-
I have no idea of this stuff, but what I will do is ask one of my IP partners here how the situation is.
-
Mono wont be a problem Al. What kind of quality is the recording?
It's in a partly edited sequence I have stored - should be decent quality, but it's miked (with a condenser mike) about 10 feet in front of a live performance. I'll give it a listen this weekend.
-
Do you have a higher quality version?
I can save at a high bit rate.
It's a fairly short song,
so it would remain a reasonable sized file.
...or perhaps I could just mail you a CD?
-
I would love to join in, what are the parameters/audio requirements?
-
As long as it's you playing the bass and you think it should be heard on CD, anything goes!
-
I have some ideas. Will probably be another multi-bass affair. 4 string and 12 string with drums, keys, vocals, and MAYBE some "regular" guitar. ;D
-
Sweet! this is heading towards a Dbl CD ;D Which is great in my books. In Online version terms its irrelevent I suppose but being generally old school in my attitudes I like the concept of a Dbl Album.
If possible please make your files either wav or aiff. So big (best quality) files are better.
I'm still trying to find time to setup an ftp account on my server for those comfortable using an ftp client.
If you want to post a CD to me I have no problems with that. Just PM me and I will give you my postal address. I would prefer not to put it in the public part of the forum.
I would like to avoid choking up my email server with multiple 30mb files if I can help it so but if its the only way for you to get the file to me then please PM me first.

I'm digging through the video from the last of the gigs I played with my "temp" band last year - mostly original songs and all played fretless on the RD, but I don't want to waste anyones time If I can't get a quality track - Bret's got a couple of mp3's of the PC from the '87 but I feel that that is not relevant to this effort...
I used "dropbox" when Pekka left me recordings a while back - quite easy to use...
-
Thx Tom, easier solution.
-
My most suitable track is probly MegaYang Mindbender Riffage on my TigerShark myspace.
It would be an honor & a thrill to get it on a Last Bass Outpost compilation!!
-
Thanks, I'm on dropbox now.
-
I got in touch with the guy whose upcomign CD I recorded on a few weeks ago, but he says that it won't be mastered until the new year, as he still has to get arrangements down for horns and strings on a couple of tracks.
-
Mark, is that the one that was recorded out at the house in the bush?

No deadline yet mate. I'll play it by ear for now. Once I have a majority of ppls songs I will check with the remainder and see when they can get stuff to me. About this time I will book some time with Scotty to get them mastered.
-
Please if possible use the highest quality file regardless of size. The closer you can get to the original recording the better your song will sound.
.wav or .aiff files are preferred. flac is also OK. A 128kbps mp3 converted to wav or aiff is still only as good as the mp3 file that it was converted from so if the mp3 is the best you have that will have to do.
As is normal when I start a project something always screws up. In this case the power supply unit in my computer has died. I'm waiting for a replacement now. :rolleyes:
This means that there are a lot of you who have hidden email addresses on this forum but who's email addresses I have on my home machine which I currently cant access. I need your email addresses to invite you to the dropbox folder if that is your preferred method of getting your file to me.
If you want to post me a CD then PM me and I will give you my postal address.
thanks

OK. I'm gonna try to do something original if that's the only choice. I'll work on it and see what I can come up. Might have to be a musical number!

I'll upload a song ASAP!
-
Bret... pm'd
-
Got a gig tonight and hope to record some tunes. I'm gonna take a Gibson or two and my 4005 clone. Hope I can get that darn Zoom to cooperate!

Look foreward to hearing it Doc

So far I have recieved 2 songs.
Just to reiterate:
I need your email addresses to invite you to the dropbox folder if that is your preferred method of getting your file to me.
Alternatively if you want to post me a CD then PM me and I will give you my postal address.

Hi Bret,
I had an email from you but I can't find it now. Could you re-send it? Sorry about that...
There's no way I can finish something new but I have something I'd like to send anyway.
gcarlston at hotmail dot com
Thanks!
-
i have a track or 2 i would like to like to send you,i can post you a data cd,.wav or .aiff ,thats probably best for quality.or as an audio cd if you prefer that.
-
Oooops I got an email about this & lost it too. Sorry!
Need another chance.
My files are on fileden.com
This might have to be a Double album, huh?? :D

;D
LOL, Mate it may surprise you to know this but I cant remember the last time I saw a bottle or can of Foster anywhere in Australia.
To quote wiki "While popular in many countries, particularly where it is brewed locally, Foster's Lager does not enjoy widespread success in Australia." ;D

We have an original surf tune I'd like to include, but the last live recording we made has a clam right at the front. I'm searching for earlier versions which are better.
-
I've got a track ready to upload but I'll need that link again. Thanks!
-
Invite sent to your hotmail account George
-
"... Foster's Lager does not enjoy widespread success in Australia." ;D
Nasty stuff as far as I'm concerned... when it first came over it was a nice drop but since they started brewing in the UK... :puke:
If you sent me a link Jackie may have deleted... :sad:
-
Fosters was always 4.9% here. When I lived in the UK it was brewed by Courage and was always 3.5%. I could never understand how they could call it the same beer. Tasted quite different. Both crap IMO ;D
Get yaself a six pack of Coopers Vintage Ale my good man and all will fine with the world. :)
-
BUMP: I have 4 tunes so far ???
Any more takers?
-
I never got that email. I don't know but sometimes my hotmail is weird. Maybe try
-
I started recording something new for this, but time is not on my side these days. Should have it uploaded before end of month, if that's not too late.
-
I'm kind of in the same boat; time is tight! still trying to get something together...
-
Bret my bad, I have been so busy with work. Can I have the address to send the material to again?
-
I'm also still waiting for the address to send a song to.
-
Ditto - going to be an older demo but features the PC more clearly - not had any luck with getting something new recorded due to issues with my comrades...
-
OK guys I did send emails to you all from the dropbox site. I will check that you are all still on that list and send again. George I will change the email address to the new one and try again.
Thanks
Bret

I've hit the Re-invite button for:
Gary, Ken and Scott. And sent a fresh invite to George's new address.
-
I also recieved a CD yesterday with 2 tracks from New Zealand. Thanks Tubehead, sounds great.
-
I got the email and have uploaded two tracks. Thanks! Do we put track info here or? If you get enough submissions I'll narrow them down. :)
The two songs are 'Flash' and 'It's All Right'.
-
Uploaded Black Mokona as an MP3, I have to go & find the original file to upload a higher quality version, but at least "marks" my spot.
-
Uploaded a WAV of a very basic demo from 1987 of a track called All I want To Do - pure Peter Cook T'bird, straight to the desk...
-
missed some of this thread. are these originals only or covers too???
-
Whatever you can give really.
Just keep in mind that some music hosting sites have stronger copyright rules than others. So depending where it gets hosted a cover song may get dropped off of the list.
-
I do not recall getting an e-mail - have I missed the boat again? ;D
-
Well, my laptop is down again. I have the link loaded, but I can't get to any of my files or the link until I get my laptop back. Hopefully, I'll be back in action early next week.
-

No problems Gary, I'm in a similar boat myself atm.
-
Hey! I'm back in business. Just uploaded "Flat Tire in Elko" for the CD. Band is kelp. I recorded it with the Embassy, and we ran a DI, along with a mic on my Eden WT-400 going through a JBL 15" cab.
-
We'll only have the backing vox down on our recording by end of Jan 2011.
-
Thanks for the update guys, I've managed to get my son moved into my office after moving everything out and doing a full reno and paint job on it. Now I just have to find the time to do the same thing to his old room so I can move my office into that smaller room.
Until then i'm stuck with limited computer access.
-
We're now in the mixing stage, two tracks with backing vocals finished. One of them, "Unity" is probably the more interesting one for bass players as it features two separately recorded bass tracks. Panned to the left you hear a 64 TB II Rev with D'Addario Chromes, panned to the right a fretless medium scale Gibson Super 400 one-off Phil Jones created Custom Shop acoustic bass guitar with a piezo bridge (passive, not active) and the E string tuned to D. Not sure whether we will keep that for most of the song very extreme TB left/Super 400 right panning for the endmix. But the Super 400 emulates a doublebass quite nicely, just listen to the three sliding notes at the end of the song.
Access at www.zentralstudio.de, kundenlogin: raintunes, user name: raintunes and project name: plainingjet.
I listen to this stuff (and Summer's Gone is largely written by me and the singer, so there is no one else to blame) and wonder: "Uwe Hornung, you used to be a fearsome Heavy Metal player with a New Wave edge to your playing, what has become of you?" :mrgreen: This is probably the "poppiest" music I have ever made. That vocal intro (initially a backing vocal elevated to intro status by our producer who liked what he heard) sounds so AOR/Middle of the Road, even, yes, cheesy, it wouldn't be out of place on a Blackmore's Night album!!! :-[ :-[ :-[
Who spots the In-a-gadda-da-vida riff I play for a few seconds at one point? :mrgreen: My bandmates were dumbfounded, but then they didn't even know who Iron Butterfly was. Ah yes, the generational gap ... I expect you guys to do much better!!!!
-
zappa bassist scott thunes did that iron butterfly riff on some live recordings back in the seventies. he also would insert the riff from "sunshine of your love" at odd intervals.
-
I never did get an invitation to drop music in the preferred site....
-
Which site is that?
-
The site is Dropbox, but you have to have an invite to the specific folder.
-
Bret's on a break at the moment...
Dropbox is a simple to use and literally like its name; Pekka introduced me to it when he was kind enough to supply me with some rather nice files... ;)
-
Guys, I'm back today. BUT! I've come back from holidays a day early to deal with the details of a business that I'm very close to buying.....maybe. I'm going to be tied up with this over the next week or so. Al, I checked the status of the invites, yours and a bunch of others are currently stated as "Still awaiting reply". I have "re-invited" all on that list.
-
Thanks! I'll get in there in the next day or so.
-

He just resent invites to everyone who hadn't replied. If you still didn't get it, maybe you should PM Bret and give him an alternate address.
-
Thanks Dave. Drop box keeps a record of whats been sent, whats been replied to and what hasn't but I have to admit I was surprised at the amount of people who said they didnt receive their emails during the first round of invites.
-
BUMP!
How are people going with getting their songs finished?
I haven't forgotten about this compilation but have been busy making dog food.
It will happen.
-
Our stuff is now finished, mastered and everything. You can download it directly from the studio's site
www.zentralstudio.de
Go to Kundenlogin, type in "raintunes" as Projektname and again "raintunes" as username and then "plainingjet" as password. Four songs, one of them a cover, you choose whichever one you deem fit. If you want details on what basses were played I can give those to you after you have made your choice.
-
Thanks Uwe, anyone else have things in the pipeline?
-
Yes, I need to dig through those back emails and make sure I can send in a surf number...
-
Well, we do, but not for this. I gave you guys the first draft of our album. We've finished it, and Dead Band Walking should be up on iTunes before long. I'll let everyone know when we're available.
-
I'm presently bandless again so still stuck with some dust laden stuff...
-
I'm presently bandless again so still stuck with some dust laden stuff...
So, do you want to talk about it or did I just miss the story in another thread?
-
Kind of a non story really - didn't miss anything - persistantly lacking in all the guys willing to commit to full rehearsal time and others with too many other musical commitments to make it a viable proposition - 5 months and the most we ever played live at any one time was 5/6 songs... nothing recorded (studio - some live stuff but not worth posting) for you - a bunch of guys willing to turn up for an open-mic but not willing to take it further in a logical fashion - I wasn't going to issue ultimatums so I just quit... excellent lead player... a real shame... I'll e you and you'll get what I mean...
-
BUMP!
How are people going with getting their songs finished?
Unfortunately my potential contribution is out of my hands. While my parts have been laid down, the completion of the album depends on the guy whose album it is finding money to finish laying down the vocal tracks and other finishing touches. So, I may well miss the deadline for contributing.
-

This is a very flexible deadline Mark. See how it goes, just give me a hoy when its ready.
-
Just a bump to let people know that I haven't given up on getting this to happen, I've just been distracted by a few things in my life like my wifes health which is all good now. Also by the purchase of my company a few months back. This in particular has taken a lot of my time away. To compound issues my mate Scotty who will be doing the mastering in his studio has had his recently ex partner get diagnosed with lymphoma. Due to the care of their sons she has moved back with him during treatment. So his time restrictions are now great as you can imagine.
Life gets complicated sometimes.
If you do have any further songs for me please contact me.
-
Life has a habit of leaving speed-bumps in the road to slow us all down...
Wish Scotty and his ex all the best...
-
Don't worry about it, Bret. IIRC the Pit CD took a good two years to come together.
-
So..... since I'm too lazy to scroll through 10 pages of posts, can someone get me the short story on this new CD? I've been not keeping up because I didn't expect to find time to record anything. However, I just got involved in a project under the name Lunation, and have three songs done, with 4 more on the way. ;D
-
Tom, when you're ready with a song you want to contribute, contact Bret (Freud's Cat) for an invitation to his folder on Drop Box.
-
Well, I finally got off my butt and contributed. I uploaded two tunes, an original called Malibu Blue, and our version of Walk Don't Run. Both were recorded live but the audio is pretty decent.
That CD needed some surf.
-
That CD needed some surf.

I like good surf music and I like good punk, bring it on! All we need now is a collaboration between Al and Skate Rat to get some Surf Punk :thumbsup:

The more diverse the better...

Ok, I finally am playing again and I am starting to record the new band. I'll have some good old R and R to toss in within a week or so. I'm psyched.
-
Sounds cool....count me in for a track.
-
I've now got copies of a couple of finished tracks from the album I recorded on last year. Where do I upload the file/s?
-
Sorry guys, I'm struggling for time at the moment.
I need your email addresses to invite you to the dropbox folder if that is your preferred method of getting your file to me.
Alternatively if you want to post me a CD then PM me and I will give you my postal address.

PM sent, no big rush!

I just uploaded "Stomp," by my band Cab 20, as well as "Come Around" by my other band, Future Shock. The first track is revival rock (think White Stripes, The Hives, The Black Keys, etc.,) and the second track sounds like Alice Cooper does glam rock.
Stomp was recorded with an Epiphone Thunderbird through an Ampeg BA300/115 combo amp, Come Around was recorded with a 2002 Gibson Thunderbird into an Ampeg V4-B through a Mesa Boogie 2x15. I hope everyone likes it. 8)

I've uploaded two songs, both recorded last year with the Richard Madden band.
"Reefer Headed Woman" is the old blues number that was covered by Aerosmith a few years ago. I'm using my Darkstar P bass into my Ampeg SB-12 fliptop amp (mic'ed).
"Autumn Sun" is an instrumental number, with my Nash P bass direct into an Avalon U5.

Thanks for the extra details guys, I will come back and collect this info and make sure it all goes into the right place at a later date. Putting it here makes it easier for me.

Can you confirm that I added my tune "Indian Paintbrush" correctly?
-
I hope it's OK our track will be recorded live and NOT in a studio.

Nothing wrong with live tracks!
-
All good Ronn.
Doc, nothin' wrong with live IMO
Just remember people that an original aiff or wav file is preferable over mp3's but mp3's will do if you dont have anything better.
-
are we going for originals only???

I would love to contribute, but I have only few rough recordings of my now disbanded old band, Grand Trunk Railroad, obviously covering Grand Funk Railroad, where I played my 1967 EB-0
I could upload and you decide if can be included

The invite request system on the Drop box site still seems to be a hit and miss affair. If you request access to the dropbox and dont get an email after I have acknowleged your request then please let me know.

Have you received the Raintunes stuff from me?

Lately I've been playing some GFR stuff with a fun side project.
We do Sins A Good Man's Brother and I'm Your Captain.
Some nice bass parts on those songs!

You should consider "Got This Thing on the Move" or "Rock and Roll Soul" :mrgreen:

Not that I'm aware of Uwe. Did you upload to the Drop Box, Post or email the songs to me?

I posted "Hoochie Coochie Man"played by ROC Cafe, in the Dropbox, worked great! I was using my Gretsch ThunderJet through a custom built combo with 4 - 10" speakers. Good bottom end! I listened to a bunch of the tracks there and what a fantastic variety of music. Very cool, guys, very cool!
-
Thanks Doc

Keep in mind that if any cover tunes are included it opens up the whole can of worms of having to get copyright clearance and pay royalties...or the legit copyright holder/publisher can cause problems down the line.
-
i promise to not sell any on feebay.

Theoretically, yes. But it's not going to be sold or marketed.

I concur with Dave.

I must apologise most profusely for my lack of attendance on this great forum over the last 6 months and more specifically for starting a project and not finishing it. I've had to admit to myself that I will not be able to pull the Outpost Cd together.
With 2 bands, a wife and 7 year old boy, a govt job and a rapidly expanding business I just cannot see me getting around to finishing it.
My house and yard are not getting desperately required attention either for what its worth. :sad:
On the positive side of things my business is doing very well and my family are all healthy so I cant complain.
Thankyou to all those people who have contributed. The song files are still on the Dropbox server and if anyone is interested in doing something further with them then let me know.
-
Thanks for the effort you have put in already, Bret. You've been conspicuous by your absence, and I just figured your business was keeping you busier than it had been.
-
Our forum's Dog Food tycoon! Cheers, Bret :thumbsup:
-
Dave, no understatement there mate. Stressful but good.
haha Mark, One thing besides many that I've learned about dog food in the last 18 months is this: Economic down turns play little if any part in weather or not people feed their pets. Regardless of their socio-economic standing. Also that low income ppl buy just as much premium dog food as high income.
Thanks guys :)
-
We've been hunting for cheaper bird food (we buy in 20kg sacks as they're hungry buggers) but having lost of fun trying to find anything our daughters bichon will eat at all...!
-

"Economic down turns play little if any part in weather or not people feed their pets. Regardless of their socio-economic standing. Also that low income ppl buy just as much premium dog food as high income."
Doesn't surprise me one bit. Pet market is utterly crisis resistant.
Good for you and a smart move to serve it!
