Not a good idea to piss off your cash cows. In another (similar) vein, here's a link to a story about Sting's manager Miles Copeland's response to last month's Cali Senate hearings regarding the 7-year contract mandate and how it applies/affect the music industry as a whole. While I don't agree with Mr. Copeland as a rule, one of two things he spoke on merit thought and discussion.

Thought it was interesting.... Hey, Everyone! I was at an in-studio Suzanne Vega performance yesterday and noticed a gentleman that used to work for the now-defunct Mercury Records. I asked him what he was doing these days, and he said he was working for Interscope, to which I replied, "You guys aren't making ANY friends in the Patty Griffin camp." He laughed, knowingly, and said that all of their artists are trying to leave them, especially Sting.I thought this was pretty interesting.... ------------------------------ End of oppositeview-digest V3 #279 **********************************
