chunkrock Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Not to keep going over the same things over and over again. Also I'm not opening this thread with intent to start bashing virgil but thought people might want to see this interview with Virgil about how he runs his business. http://www.practicalecommerce.com/articles/2506-Lessons-Learned-Virgil-Dickerson-with-Suburban-Home-Records Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Hundred Fifty-Two Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Suburban Home Records launched in 1995. In 2008, the site recorded gross revenues of roughly $1 million. Sales have reduced since then. Didn't get past this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohmessylife Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 When I was in college, I took a magazine making class and wanted to interview Virgil. My "friend through music" agreed to it, but then stopped answering any emails. Again, not to bash him, but that experience left a bad taste in my mouth. Anyway back to the interview - definitely an interesting read. I never knew he had a brick & mortar store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robx Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 $1 million is insane. talk about blowing it. literally. even more crazy to think about when you're NOT PAYING LABELS! and you know the bullshit he sells is just a tiny piece of that. whatever random ass punk dropout recorded solo record etc. etc. wasn't what was making him all that cash. it was distroing for labels that didn't have many other options.
