Minipoodle - I have a shampoo recomendation for you. Johnston and Johnston no more tears.
Get over it.
The industry sucks. My band will not do anything through them, and we are doing just fine thank you. I work through a lot of labels for work, and you come to see how greedy and contrived the entire thing is. Its absolutely disgusting what they do to artists, and for you to sit there and bitch and moan that artists arent doing it "by the book" means that you are not siding with the artist. I can tell you have worked at a label as your attitude shows it. Your against the artist and for that I say
.
Asshole.... **** these people piss me off.
Edit - sorry calmed down a bit now..... Still bs though.:)
