==Demos==
This web store is my final project for cs50 web Programming.
I'll let you guys know if and when it is functional. It's going to take some time.
If you see any demos that have been previously released or leaked, let me know so I can remove them. If you see any demos that have another person on it, either as a writer or performer, let me know.
This is just the first installment. These should be songs that have no co-writers or other performers. For any demo: It might have silence. It might be wildly inappropriate. It might have super low sound quality. It might just be me rambling, talking, making sounds. It may have already been shared or leaked. It might be just a drum beat. It might not have vocals. It might be a duplicate of another demo. It might be an inferior version of another demo. The information provided, such as year and description, might be incorrect.
All the data is dummy data for now.
If you want to fake 'buy' stuff now, you can use my test credentials for sandbox.paypal. Fills these when the paypal window pops up.
payeremail="sb-etgoo3484889@personal.example.com" payerpassword="eS3v!tVV"
Any demos you buy will show up on your account page. You can listen there.
And you can check whether or not to make them visible to everyone else. You can also select to make them playable by your friends there.
Or you can keep them hidden.
After you purchase, the demos will be listed as 'already purchased' or 'unavailable' in the store.
I will also send you mp3s. Save the mp3s because I can't guarantee how long I'll maintain this website.

==Mikey Welsh==
Mikey was Weezer’s second bassist. I met him at the legendary Fort Apache studio in Cambridge in '95 or so? I was working on B-sides. He was playing for Juliana Hatfield at the time.
He first started playing with me in '97 in Boston, during the band’s hiatus. I saw him performing at a Boston club (the Paradise) in a Kyuss cover band. I recruited him and the drummer Zeph to help me with a batch of songs. I wasn't sure if this was going to be the next Weezer album or a new band. (I considered naming it 'Lovely'. He officially joined the weezer in '98.
He appeared on the Christmas CD and The Green Album. However, his very first appearance on a Weezer song was our cover of Velouria recorded in ‘98 and released in ‘99. He left the band in 2001 but played live with us for a couple songs during two shows in 2010 and 2011.
After Weezer, he retired from music to focus on art. He was pretty amazing artist. He lived with his wife and two kids in Vermont.
He's the one who came up with the name Goat Punishment.
He died at the age of 40, in October 2011.
Sometimes I wonder what Mikey would be like in 2020. He had such a punk spirit that loved to outrage the establishment.

==Demos==
Hey guys, this has been a tough few days for me.
I'm hurt that someone downloaded and distributed the demos. I wish everyone would help me when I make mistakes in my code, rather than take advantage of me.
On top of that, many parts of the site are broken right now and I haven't been able to fix them in spite of long hours of work. I hope that at least the chat app is working now so we can keep the good times rolling. I'll be in a Weezer session today but I will start work again first thing tomorrow morning.
To those of you who bought demos anyway, I'm moved and grateful. We wouldn't be able to do what we do without fans like you.
I'm sorry that I sent you the wrong files. (That's one of the parts of the site that is broken right now.) I will send the correct files by tomorrow even if Kyoko and I have to mail them all by hand.
Please continue to use gentle language on Riverchat even when you feel harshness is justified.
Love,
Rivers
IGNORE EVERYTHING BELOW HERE:
The web store is now open for many users.
Thank you for supporting me and my family.
This is just the first installment. These should be songs that have no co-writers or other performers.
Any demos you buy will show up on your account page. You can listen there as soon as I re-activate the links.
And you can check whether or not to make them visible to everyone else. You can also select to make them playable by your friends there.
Or you can keep them hidden.
After you purchase, your name will not be visible in the store as owner unless you want it to be.
I will also send you mp3s. Save the mp3s because I can't guarantee how long I'll maintain this website.

==Demos==
I'm trying to get the store up and running today before I go to the studio. I just went through all the files to remove any remaining demos that had other people on them. I also added more metadata tags and reduced the price of the more expensive demos. Now I'll try to fix the part of the program that emails you the demos.
I'm happy the site is running more smoothly at the moment.

==Demos==
The Market is now open to all neighborly users with id < 500. Also open to users who tried to paypal me over the last days. Really grateful.
Not all of the demos from the leak are available as I still had at least one last cull to perform. I've removed some duplicates, some demos that had other people on them, and a few that were just utter garbage.
A few demos remain in the market that I wish I was able to take out but were snapped up instantly when I first opened the test Market. For example, recordings of me listening to the radio when I was a kid. Recordings of me and my brother.
thank you for your patience with any errors you may encounter.

==The Cathy Santonies==
In 2011, I played a radio show on WBEZ Chicago. Because I like trying different things and being in uncomfortable situations, I asked the Sound Opinions people to select a backing band and setlist of their choice. We met about 30 minutes before the performance.
The Cathy Santonies are a rock trio from Chicago. The members of the group are Mojo Santoni, Radio Santoni and Jane Danger.

Experimenting bringing back some features now that the market is sold out.
I think I will respond in your personal channels. They are still public, though. If the site starts crashing, I'll have to disable again.
I'm setting up an appointment with a pro next week to help me make the app more stable and help reduce the startup time.

==Coach Cuomo==
An irreverent, fictional take on me from Riverchatters. They like to make up stories about me being a depraved high school gym teacher and coach. Think Bad Santa meets Coach Carter with a splash of Napoleon Dynamite's Uncle Rico.
This running gag happened after chatters saw my long hair, headband, clipboard, and mustache during a Tiktok live. Some other alleged attributes of my alter ego include a whistle, extra short gym shorts, tube socks, and a penchant for stretching. Groovy. As chatter Evagenline coined, "Squad's out, quads out."
The chatters claim I like to make them run laps and always talk about how I could've gone pro, instead of playing at Bennigan's on the weekends. Reportedly fired from last school due to inappropriate conduct. Can be found during my breaks smoking and/or drinking in the school parking lot outside my van with a "Van Weezer" spray painted design on the side.
Here's some examples of what my alter ego looks like:

==Let's Write A Sawng==
Back in March of 2008, with the Democratic and collaborative efforts of the Red album in mind, I turn that concept toward the fans. Similar to my thinking and approach with the Hootenanny's of 2008, “they can all play instruments/Weezer songs and write songs too.”
It came to be on March 19, 2008 after I posted a link to Step 1 and 2 on YouTube and MySpace. The concept morphed and changed over the next 8 months across many videos and 16 steps. Ultimately the final version of the song, titled “Turning Up the Radio,” didn’t make Raditude after sending it to the wolves. However it did find a place on Weezer’s Death to False Metal in 2010. In all the song featured co-writes with 16 fans. A. Rob Carballo, Paul Dutton, Nishant Thakur, Daniel James Kelsch, Justin Vail, Taylor Morden, Reshad Malik, Daniel Powell, Sam Mitchell, Lauren Sonder, Mike Danger, Kingsley Vanata, Joshua Godinez, Patrick Gannon, Ryan Wiesbrock, and Cameron L. Maris. Production was done heavily with Taylor Morden laying most of the ground work.

To have your music files added to the “By The People” playlist on the music player, email lisa@riverscuomo.com. She will share a google drive folder to which you can upload your files.
Put all files loosely into your folder
If you want a specific artist name 
Here are some tools for adding metadata to music files: https://www.online-tech-tips.com/free-software-downloads/mp3-metadata/
f you change the name of a fileyou'll lose all the data associated with the first copy (such as ratings and comments).

Great news, I've narrowed down the startup bug to a small section of the chat app code. I've disabled that part of the code for now. so we won't have those hour-long startups anymore. Some of the usual chat functionality is disabled until I isolate and fix the bug.
I'm setting up an appointment with a pro next week to help me make the app more stable and help reduce the startup time. UPDATE: the pro demurred.

==Santa Monica College==
I went there in the early 90's, first as an English major, then as a music major. I wrote the Buddy Holly chorus melody while walking across one of the quads.
I performed at the 2018 Homecoming halftime show, along with a group of other “All-Star Alumni.” 
==Spell It Out==
It was originally considered for OK Human, but we ended up cutting it back in September 2020.I mentioned its possible inclusion on the next, next, next album (after Van Weezer and OK Human), which will be more acoustic.

==Market==
If you already spent a lot (more the $20) on demos, don't purchase bundle #1. I'll figure out how to give it to you. (Olivia and geewiz come to mind but I think there are others.)
Please tell me if anything looks wrong or if I've made a mistake.
There's a test bundle up for purchase now. $1. This is real money. And I can't guarantee that the purchase work. Or that you will care about the demo. Only purchase if you want to help me test the app.
Once purchased, please don't share. Everyone else will have a chance to buy once I'm sure it's working.
And please let me know if it doesn't work as expected. Or if you find you have access to something you shouldn't. Thank you.
I haven't had a chance to make audio previews yet so if you buy, you're buying sight unseen. Or hearing unheard?
these should be songs that have no co-writers or other performers.
for any demo: it might have silence.
it might be wildly inappropriate.
it might have super low sound quality.
it might just be me rambling, talking, making sounds.
it may have already been shared or leaked.
it might be just a drum beat. it might not have vocals.
it might be a duplicate of another demo.
it might be an inferior version of another demo.
the information provided, such as year and description, might be incorrect.
Also, over time, the contents of each bundle in the market might change.
Or the metadata for a file might change.
The price may change.
(In other words, you may prefer the current version in the market to the version you bought.)

==Unchained Melody==
"Unchained Melody" was a phase of writing. 'Melody First' songs. I was craving old school Weezer melody after a few years of writing less melodically. This was during the period where I broke off from Rick and worked on my own.
I played the demos for Q Prime as part of our get-to-know-you process. They didn't like them at all, singling out SIMPLE FISHERMAN for particular scorn. For this and one other reason we didn't go with them.
collection of demos assembled on May 3, 2004 as an A-List for Make Believe. It was presented to the rest of Weezer as potential songs for what would ultimately become Make Believe.
In the end, none of the songs would end up making Make Believe a year later.
"Haunt You Every Day" is from an earlier phase.

Alone IV: The EWBAITE Years is available in the market.
I may still be adding files to the dropbox folders after they've gone on sale. That means you can re-download the bundle, or the specific files, and get additional content as I discover it. Very cool. To see a current list of tracks available in the Alone IV bundle, click here.
I had no plans to release a 4th Alone album, but my plans changed. I'm (still) finding that old material is very useful for new songs though.

That being said, I want to limit my time working here to 4-6 hours a day, so I still have time to work on new music. That means I can't add new features as quickly as I'd like.

Please use neighborly language always. Don't interact with anyone who does otherwise. Avoid the urge to police or defend yourself or others. Leave that to the code. Don't throw gasoline on a fire.
Thank you all for keeping the chat peaceful and harmonious. It really helps me concentrate and make progress on the app. And the music.

A music duo featuring myself and Scott Murphy (Allister, Monoeyes). We’ve released two albums in Japanese.
I’m hopeful that ニマイメ (Nimaime, "The Second One") will be released internationally soon.
Somebody at Weezer's record company introduced us after I told them that I was looking for a Japanese speaking gaijin collaborator.
We performed our song 夏は来ぬ (Summer Has Come) in an ad for Japanese clothing company Uniqlo.

Here’s a few pics of Scott and I.
