Well, unless we want to see what happened with her last label happen with ATO (the hunt for "hit singles"), we should be concerned about the label making money.

I know I keep going on about this guy at Fish records www.fishrecords.co.uk but he actually asks the artist how much they want to sell the albums for and he then marks them up to take account of his costs. In other words, if Suzanne asks for $15 per album SHE GETS IT !!!!! Take care, Alan Teather Who do you know who would like some extra income now the credit cards are biting?

Maybe it's better now that she belongs to a musician's label. Until she can sell her stuff from her own website, she will never make much on the sale. She'll make it from concerts. So, pay $6 or pay $18. She won't realize much from it because she doesn't have the capital invested in it. Her label does. Maybe Jonatha Brooke and Ani DeFranco should write books on how to do it all your self. That's where the money is, and that's where the freedom is. jiswa ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!

It's possible that they had some large group sales & brisk sales otherwise , as this is the first time in a few years that Patty is headlining in her old home town of Boston. The first time I tried to see Patty in NJ , I went to the sold-out show to try to get a ticket , & saw a number of tour buses in the lot. We're going to have to move faster in the future.
