One of the best thing to do is to pirate almost all of your music and then reward the creators by going to their shows, buying them shirts or even CDs (you can also rip physical copy if piracy is not a thing)
Or buy off Bandcamp on Friday's. But also support local and developmental acts
why Fridays?
Bandcamp usually gives all the proceeds of sales directly to the band on Fridays
Ideally just send them money, most of the are set up for donations.
Tshirts and CDs create waste unless you actually end up using them
I totally agree with your point of view, I was talking to buy stuff to use it. When sending money I usually just gives some money to the group at the end of the show by hand
"Nice show Ms Swift, there's a tenner for you, maybe buy something nice with it"
Lmao WHAT? You don't seriously expect people to believe this...do you?
Ohh sorry if I make myself misunderstood but I really listen and go live to small to medium groups so I can definitely to this, but maybe you can't, no problems online (or IRL) donations are the solution
