but it certainly contributes to other kinds.
unless you're playing a guitar you made from scratch yourself, strung with catgut (or whatever the hell it is they used to string them with), chances are your band aren't too environmentally friendly.
- factory produced guitars, amps, drums, keyboards, mics, PA's, other gear, all of it shipped from wherever
- electricity to power everything
- driving to gigs
the last two things have relatively obvious solutions - venues/practice spaces powered by solar (or other renewable) power, and using fuel efficient means of transport.
does anyone know of any music equipment companies out there that manufacture their products with an eye towards reducing/eliminating their enviro impact?
do you buy locally produced music equipment?
