Announcing Cloud Music Company

General -- posted by Michael Helland on March 1st, 2010

Cloud Music Company is based in the Seattle Area, and its goal is to bring people together to make music. We do that with Open Jams.

Q: What is an Open Jam?
A: An Open Jam is similar to an Open Mic, with the focus of bringing the performers together as a band. We setup the PA, the drums, the amps, and set out the instruments. You sign your name up on the list, and the next thing you know, you’re jamming away with new friends in an impromptu band, in a venue with an audience.

Q: Can I play my own songs?
A: Absolutely. Play your songs, play cover songs, or make songs up on the spot.

Q: Can I bring my own gear?
A: Yes. Bring your own guitar or play one of ours. We try to minimize time between performers, so switching out drums sets and setting up half stacks are bad ideas, but if you have a portable combo amp you like, you’re welcome to set it up.

If you have any questions or just want to drop us a line, my email address is:

mike of course at cloudmusiccompany.com.

    what kind of bullshit hack job is this? I really dont know what to say…..ok ill just say this, i got the album, but now i need to vomit. i expected flash drives and pre-loaded video, but what is this? Did you spill bong water on your keyboard? I need a bit more visual pleasure if i am going to shell out 8 american dollars for a burnt disk with a hand-drawn vigina on the cover! Ahh fuck it….whatever man, just send me my royalties so i dont have to get my attorney. Ill sue your ass………….

    Mike- this is great. . . I love the story about how you met Tom, and how he got here from West Virginia. That Travis Merle is a pretty cool cat. Nice work on the website, and a great performance by the Million $ Hillbilly Band on Sat night!

    Hey! I have listen to the free download, if you can just have Ryan (Ryno) bring some of them to work, I would buy them just to listen to the entire albumn. Ryan said he played one of the instruments. He is actually the one that told some of us about the band. Well, either that or I can send a money order. Thank you.

    Hi! I really like your website, it sure is nice. I thought you might allow me to share some of my feelings about our wondeful leaders.
    fuck george bush
    he can fuck my poem
    if he’s gonna stick his dick in the door
    an fuck my home
    the last thing he’ll ever see
    will be me
    digging my foot in his sack
    while his head burrows deeper up his ass
    and fuck those fat pigs on capitol hill
    with old burrial bones while their high on pills
    they could suck on my big hard schlong
    but you know their wives are just as long
    they preach about morality and jesus
    but their husbands are suckin their nuts
    fuck dick cheney and shoot him in the face
    bury him in the mud
    spray him with mace
    he looks like elmer fudd that fucking waste
    id rather osama took his place
    and fuck carl rove
    that dark emperor is missing his robe
    worshiping a giant cock on a devil doll
    sucking on transvestites all night past last call
    your the biggest cunt of em all
    diggin in trash, proud of your hashed plans
    you should wear a moustache
    sick of lookin at the shit on your face
    just admit your a fag and your face is a cum rag
    if i could go back in time and give Hitler some hell
    Id rather build a birthday cake with a grenade for donald rumsfeld
    nobody likes him, he’s always actin like a dick beatin around the bush
    i saw how they do it in grenada, they beat em with a stick and burn em in the bush
    Fuck taxes, that unpatriotic bullshit, payin for their crackheads
    stop payin it people, bring em to their knees, their fucking usless without those fees
    Oh did I mention Condaliza rice gettin slapped around by dick
    as soon as she’s done pluggin bush she’ll be president

    Hey Mike pleasure to hear ya play

    Song of mine

    Rednecks, Psychopaths, Pretty Girls, & Misled boys

    Now rednecks become psychopaths
    when they try to conquer those prettygirls
    cuz they always getting interfered by those misled boys

    we really know who rules the world
    why of course its the pretty girls
    but the rednecks and psychopaths always interfere
    and they go about full circle and become those misled boys

    and who but leads them but those pretty girls
    if we just give them their way
    we’d all have a piece
    and im trapped with psycho’s path

    misled by upper redneck good ol boys
    cuz ya see I cant hate any of them
    cuz we all be related
    being from kentucky and all

    and now im up north carrying on the way

    so I love all the people right wrong or ugly

    rednecks psychopaths pretty girls and misled boys
