I assure I'm not getting rich

I just want to let all the musicians who let use their work for free that I am not trying to make any money off their hard work.

This website and podcast is still a money LOSING enterprise!

But I am trying to get some extra money to use for promoting this website.

It does no good for me to scream and yell about how great Iowa music is if I'm talking to an almost empty room!

I want everybody to know how great our - and your - music is. To do, I need to promote this website more. And to do that, I need money.

So I will be monetizing my YouTube page, starting a Patreon account, among other things. But I assure that any money I make will go back into the website and not into my pockets!

Check out our advertisement disguised as a quiz!

Take the quiz that's really an advertisement!

See how you well know IMSC?

See how you compare to others?

Kill a few moments, that you can't get back, on a worthless internet quiz!

Hello all,

Some boring legal stuff you should know: Iowa Music Showcase is done on a zero budget. I don't make any money from it, and give it away for free. So I can't afford to pay any rights or fees.

Some episodes, though, are played on Code Zero Radio, and they do pay licensing fees for the songs they play.
