suits me fine - I don't want to be a killjoy for anyone doing tape trading
but am always trying to make sure that, for the smaller bands who can find
that things like this do have an effect on their sales, this factor is not
overlooked by the enthusiasm to hear the music. Sure, if Hardy is OK with
this, then that's all that matters. It's not so much the one doing it for
three or four that matters, it's the then three or four who do three or four
more each, etc, etc.
Thanks to you for checking.
Andy Garibaldi.
