Letting people Download our music for FREE has helped us a lot. It allows people the opportunity to hear our band that might not hear us otherwise. The majority of our money is generated from our merchandise like T shirts and Cd's. I get paid like $50 bucks from the actual show, but that only for 45 min. of playing drums. Rich crybaby rock stars make way more cash from touring than from record sales. My friend Chad plays drums for 3-11 and he told me that their last record didn't even sell 75,000 copies due to people stealing it off the web, so basically that paid for the cost of recording the album, but they make a killing on tour, so it all works out in the end.
Just my 2 cents. ;)
