I'm sure a lot of you have experience distributing your music under a
Creative Commons license so I'd like some of
your thoughts. My band
finished recording a full length album recently, and we are planning on
releasing it under CC-BY-NC-SA.
Maybe you should advertise the option to relicense cc-by-sa for
alternative radio stations or people publishing compilations. NC can be a
showstopper there.
All the best for your band effort!

How would that be a showstopper? Wouldn't they just need our permission?
Or is there some complicated legal stuff that I'm missing?

CC is a non-exclusive license, so in fact it doesn't stop you making
alternative arrangements for commercial purposes. Unfortunately lots of people
don't realise that so shy away from CC-NC material.
You could always have something like:
CC-BY-NC-SA (other licensing available on request)

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
