    Thanks for posting...I think it was on here awhile ago, but I hadn't read all of it before, so thanks! I really appreciated it, and actually GOT something ed said at the end. Sometimes it has to be hard for it to be right...that certainly applies to a lot of things.

    Good for them for trying this marketing technique! It's gonna be such a great thing for them!

    Thanks again!

    I think it really shows the truth behind the band and what they stand for, often more valuable than the music. Wait, no, but it has value. Keep on truckin.

    Yeah... I love the article aside from this quote:
    We fought our way through eight records at Sony and J to get ourselves in a position where we could cut a deal to get paid $5 a record, rather than $1.50 or $2. It was the right compromise for this record, and I think it will give us even more flexibility in the future.

    Don't get me wrong - they should get whatever they can. But don't say Target is better for the fans in one sentence, and then talk about going from $2 to $5/record in the next! That flexibility Stone talks about is being able to go from a 7,000 sq foot home to a 12,000 square foot home! :lol:
