Dear Rockers Site Pays Back Musicians With Money & Thanks

Many of us have owned music that we didn’t necessarily pay for at some point in our lives. While some may rest easy at night, there are still plenty of others who have experienced some complex emotions about shafting an artist out of making a buck. Luckily, the great website Dear Rockers has created a way to help fans thank their favorite artists and repay them in five easy steps - you simply pick a musician, write them a letter, send a pic of the letter to Dear Rockers, mail off your letter along with $5, and enjoy the karma. It’s kind of like Post Secret for a post-Napster society and reading the letters on the site is insightful and hilarious. A particular favorite is a girl who sent Axl Rose $5 in coins “because that’s how bum wine should be bought.” (Thanks to Pop Candy for the heads up!)
