I think they can only "Sell" an album. They either have to hear you or you need to talk to them for the option to come up under Singer. I was able to sell albums after performing for tips.

Does windy weather come with Showtime?
I saw this badge description on the official site which made me wonder:

"Blown Away!
Bronze
Description: Have your Sim get blown away while trying to walk against the wind"

I've seen a mime do that, so I think it refers to that.

I've built a dive bar, a fusion bar, and the upmarket bar in Starlight Shores, but there is no option for my sim to register as self employed in the band career at City Hall. The painter option is there, but not a band. Am i doing something wrong? I've checked all the lots, and they all work as they should, but I'm just not getting the band option. Are there certain types of bar you need in order for this to be possible?

You have to have relationships with people first, before you can sell them albums.

Why are the instruments of a custom venue being stolen?

I put a stage and all four instruments in the lot so bands can play gigs, but every now and then a guitar or the drums vanish! I've actually found the drumming set inside one of my regular playable sims' inventory! I don't know if she paid for it out of the family funds or... well, you know, kleptoed it?

Is there any way to lock the items of a community lot? Why doesn't this happen in ready-made venues?

Sounds like a glitch, as it doesn't generally happen. I've had it happen once on an unpatched LN game, but nothing else. Instruments would be hard to "klepto" because there are always people around.

Thanks for the reply. Maybe it happened because it was a new lot in an old town?

The Yellow Trumpet Jazz Club has lost two guitars and a set of drums, so I'll keep an eye out for these instrument-stealing Sims!

Question: Can you make any recipes with fish you've caught aside from sushi? If so, how? :-/

You can make grilled salmon (from caught salmon), fish and chips, and, if you consider them fish (EA does), frogs legs. Oh, and ambrosia from deathfish. This is assuming you buy and read the recipes (although grilled salmon just comes with some level of cooking skill).

Does the lobster in lobster thermidor count as a fish?

Yup. Forgot the lobster. I do know that recipe comes with reaching level 10 in cooking.

you just need seeds/fruits/veggies of something where you click on it inside your inventory and click on "plant", you can find it at random spots of the world, you fridge or the grocery store

You plant seeds/produce directly. For instance, you can buy grapes, bring them back home, click one them, and plant them.

I promise I'm not as grumpy as my avatar looks.

Oooh, thanks. Now for the second and third questions: Why does it says: EP8: Showtime, when it is the 6th? and: Why does it says: Get your SHT on with this cool expansion, when it is not cool?

Ok, is there any way to remove existing celebrities celebrity status? I have Twallans mod and set the number of celebs to 1/2 per neighborhood but there was apparently more than that already existing at the time. Virtually the whole neighborhood are 1/2 star celebs. Anyone know a workaround?

Is it safe to delete families from the main menu or is it a VBT, like it is in Sims 2? My menu's all cluttered cos I wanted to make all different families when I first got the game and I haven't played them since :x

Click on the celebrity, select Nrass/master controller/intermediate/celebrity level and set it to whatever you want. To remove status , just set it to 0.
