Re: Marvelous 3 - I Melt With You

Huge fan of the band, and have been on the annual reunion trail as well, but this sucks.

Straight up.

The vox do not fit and are not synced and the bigger question is :

WHY.....?????

The original smokes.

Better to do nothing than something thats half-baked.

Re: Andy Summers And Stewart Copeland Sue Sting Over Millions In Unpaid Royalties

Those 2 straight up deserve nothing and their attorneys and CPA's should be canned.

It really took 40 years to realize you weren't being paid on one of the biggest hits ever?

Totally find this story incredible.

When Page went out with the Crowes it was cool, but Chris can't sound like Tyler or even anything close.

Re: JPEARLTV … Jizzy Pearl says signing w/ Golden Robot or Frontiers Music are not ‘Real Record Deals’, it’s not the sa

The big deals are still out there - Just not for rock.

A twenty-something I know got fronted a cool $mil for one record.

The way these small labels make money is they license it in about 30 countries. Hypothetically, let's say they collect $3-5k per country.

Thats how they do it.

The ship has WAY sailed on this 10+ years ago.

Outside of a few (3-10) markets, no way they would pull more than 1500/nite.

Seriously, NO ONE CARES.

Especially after the Youtube went up of show #1.

Additionally, there is zero reload on the package - Literally a "one and done".
