I think vurbal was making a joke.
Anyway, its good to see bands sticking up for themselves and fighting the record labels. Hopefully soon the way will change and things will become fair for the artists.

I read on another site. Maybe it was Blabbermouth.net. I am not sure. Poison is only suing them for $25,000.

English 101:
Regarding "There, their and they're"
There = I'm going over there (direction)
Their = It's their fault and he is their friend (possessive)
They're = conjunction (2 words put together, 'they' + 'are')
(i.e. They are being ridiculous or 'they're' being ridiculous)
Class is now concluded.
This is not meant to be insulting. Only those too ignorant to care to be corrected and no desire to learn will be offended. Guess we'll (we will) find out.

Heh, Nice GOP. Glad you know your Spelling. good for you.
As for the Article. Record labels are a thing of the past, it's your band Manage it yourself. We know you want to Sit on your lazy ass all day and have a blast with your money, all bands are formed With
instant-success in mind. if you cant perform because you love Music. then you choose the wrong career.
Its really as simple as that.

I humbly beg to differ. I also prefer proper spelling, punctuation, and use of words and conjunctions. I think it makes it harder for anyone to take anything you have to say seriously if translating it becomes a chore.
Back to the article.
I'd like to see something swing in favor of the artists, as we all know the labels get rich while taxing every possible angle of the people that provide their income.
They dry them out, rip them off, then discard if necessary.

I dun got learned to rite at unyvursetee.. dun me no hurt neither >> loooolz!
BTW.. concerning "Cribs".. I had to watch because I couldn't believe how much money an illiterate {censored..censored} could get paid by these stupid record companies.. Plus I never heard of the prick. he likes guns and drugs so much.. cool.. give me a heap of pcp and a 45 and his address... bet he ain't so keen on them after I get through ridding the world of some vermin @ his millionaires mansion all paid for by ghetto kids and stupid wannabe boy racers.
go Poison.. I think you suck, along with bon asshat and tigertailz and all the rest of them pretend rock bands, but anybody who has the guts to stand up and say "Hey.. we bein' robbed by the record company" is up 1 point in my books.
More power to your lawyers... now why don't you give all your music away on p2p networks if you really want some respect?

Oh really? What part of my post showed a lack of literacy? Do you know what literacy means? I think by being able to type complete sentences I have proven to be literate. Bad grammar does not equal "lack of literacy". Missing a few apostrophe's yourself hypocrite.
