I have always wondered. I remember someone bitching about it in a interview a couple years ago. It was a rapper I think.



Each aspect of the soul has it's own part to play, but the ideal is harmonious agreement with reason and control.

totally depends on how the contracts between all parties are structured.





If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

Wow. If you play music it should be required that you go to Law School first. For sake of your tunes.

Seriously. The one thing I can respect about Dave Matthew is that he wouldn't sign anything that didn't give him complete control/licensing of his songs.

Depends on the deal. We do better selling cds ourselves because then we don't have to worry about the digital download fees (from itunes, etc). Plus we get it right away, rather than waiting for the paperwork, etc.



Good punk/HC/oi shows coming up. Check out http://myspace.com/refuseresistband
