And being your own manager...how many of you guys have law degrees or even have books on entertainment law? If so, which? Being your own manager = horrible idea and how you get raped on a 5CD term on your first deal.

I'm only suggestin this because we need to A: protect our selves and B: know that majors ain't gonna fuck with you AT ALL till you get em. Shit man, that CD with the photocopied insert goes right in the garbage because they can see immediately that you aren't serious about your music. And that's coming directly form an A/R at Warner.


Omen, why are you still here? Your last buddy on this board finally realized what a waste of life you are. Take that hate shit elsewhere.
