We are.

It's good because people tell you what they think of your band.

What you can improve, what they liked, etc.

It's a good tool to get your music up to snuff.

I have one online collaboration tune that I know of on there that was posted by the singer/songwriter. It's one of the Long Play songs that are linked in my sig. It seems like a decent site, but I don't really ever go there and had nothing to do with setup, so what do I know. lol...

It is good for feedback alright, when the reviewers are really astute and understand what you're doing that is.

Sometimes, you get some real dingbats, such as this one review from some chick (her term) in NM who concluded a review of one of my instrumental pieces like this, "DID THEY EVEN SING?"

I was laughing my ass off for days over that one! In fact, I'll even use her review in spoken form to start off my next CD.

I just heard the song. It is not in anyway an insult, but the song sounds flameboyant. It's kind of like Savage Garden.

yeah, we're on there, sometimes the feedback is really good and helpful, sometimes not so great. but overall the site is pretty good.

also, one thing to keep in mind, when you're listening to anyone's music on garageband, make sure you click the "HI" bandwidth to get a good quality sound (unless you're really using dialup, in which case, you have my condolances)
