Sinister: Just a thought.

[Michael Donofrio]

Hello,
I'm fairly new here, and I don't often write, but I felt I should share my
thoughts on this business.

This bit is such nonsense. In the US, B&S are distributed by 
Matador/Capitol Records. How much more corporate can you get? They're even
featured in those damn music clubs like Columbia House (um, so says a
friend). Who cares? I like the music, not a business strategy. The reason
they aren't on the top of the charts is because few want to hear creative,
witty and sincere music. Not with a new Alanis album around.   

Just a thought.
