Film it all - get 3 Flip Cams!

YouTube is the unsung champion of the diy musician.

If I had to give one piece of advice to artists who were looking for the best way to promote their band, it would be to get very, very active on YouTube. The returns can be huge.

And what do you need to do to get content on the Tube? You need to film it and edit it.

Here's the deal:  I think you should have at least 3 of these cameras in your gig bag.  And don't worry, they aren't uber expensive.  With one gig's worth of cash you should be able to to grab a small bundle of them as even the HD ones hover around $150 each.

Yep, I just double checked.  Three flip cams = $450.

Lifetime of marketing return.  Seriously.

You can get the latest third generation models here on Amazon - a bit more than $150 each but makes sense to get the latest version
