So one of the bands I'm in has been asked if we'd be willing to put two of our songs into this film:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1243630/

The backstory is that the writer/director is a good friend of the main singer/songwriter of our group.

Obviously, this would be way cool, but I've never gone through this process before with licensing songs for use in a film. I have a lot of homework to do.

Ask Derek and Josh. They had some songs in a film that played over the summer and they had some songs on the A & E show The Cleaner this past summer as well.

It's a bitch from what I've understood. And the payout takes a loooonng time.

I had forgotten about the Riviera songs Jen. Thanks for the tip!

Piper and Carradine...it's like they took my 1986 consciousness and blew it up on a film.

Your songs seem perfect for this movie.

I tried to find somebody of that sort that I could like that nobody else did - because everybody would adopt his group, and his group would be _it_; someone weird like Captain Beefheart. It's no different now - people trying to outdo ! each other in extremes. There are people who like X, and there are people who say X are wimps; they like Black Flag.
