wooo

We played a fun show last night, should have some video up soon.

Man this is funny shit though (which I first read on At Ease), Lily Allen complaining about Radiohead, "It's arrogant for them to give their music away for free - they've got millions of pounds. It sends a weird message to younger bands who haven't done as well.".

YEAH! THATS MESSED UP! And all those people making open source software shouldn't do that either, because it's unfair to all of the soon-to-be Microsoft's of the world as well!

(As a side note, sorry Craig, I know you like Lily Allen, but think how this could be directed at Prince, too)..

The comments on that At Ease article page are hilarious, though. Some great reading, especially if you are putting of write a tab control wrapper layer...

Prince might give his music away for free every once in a while, but that does not stopping him from having his own internet meltdown moments too:

Not cool to sue your own fans.

Lily Allen is the shit though.

I don't know. I think she has a point to some extent, but that point is based on an old model of revenue-based music production, which is becoming more archaic by the year. I'm surprised, because I would have thought someone young like Miss Allen would be 'down with the kids,' so to speak. Turns out that instead it is five (or is that six? ;) old nerds from Oxford who just happen to make some of the most beautiful music in the western world
