I discovered Brad Sucks back in 2006 or so and blogged about it at the time (Brad Sucks: Open Source Musician?). I've enjoyed his album, "I Don't Know What I'm Doing" quite a bit since then. I realized recently that I had just downloaded the album and never really got around to paying for it...which really sucks because I really like to support what independent artists are doing.
I got around to fixing that a couple weeks ago by hitting the tip jar on his Music page. When you hit the tip jar, Brad sends a button. The button I got was of the cover of the album. Sweet.
That's very cool. I have to check it out. a GREAT idea.

I'm pretty regularly surprised at the innovation that's going on with independent artists and their finding ways to generate income with their music. It's a cool time to be a fan of music with so many different ways to support the people that make the music you love
