| Crim On Coe |
 |
| :: Posted by Sid Smith on Tue., Feb 28, 2012 |
My thanks to Andrew John for alerting me to some impending Crimson on the radio. Andrew writes "it’s been a long time since I was able to point out to my mother
that King Crimson are refered to in the BBC Radio Times. Get yourselves
tuned to Gideon Coe this Thursday and wallow in the recognition only
occasionally the popular media affords ’our’ band. What is
chosen to be played will be interesting in itself." The session in question is likely to be the old BBC In Concert session taken from the Concertgebouw Night Watch concert. We wait with baited breath until Thursday!

No Accounting For Pete's Sake!
:: Posted by Sid Smith on Thu., Dec 22, 2011
My thanks to Natron for bringing to our attention this snippet from Pete Atkin's newsletter. "MEANWHILE –
The struggle goes on with SonyBMG and the very grand
Michael Smith to get them to account to me for sales over the last
twenty years involving the last three RCA albums. There’s been a bit of
progress, but not really very much. It’s a pathetically small amount of
money involved, but I’ll be blowed if I’ll let it go. Jarndyce and
Jarndyce spring to mind,"
Natron comments "When challenged over their business practices a justification that is
often trotted out by company directors & executives is that they
have a legal obligation to "maximise share holder value". They are
rarely challenged on whether their actions actually achieve this aim. "

12399 Is A Magic Number
:: Posted by Sid Smith on Thu., Dec 22, 2011
Here's some interesting figures on how many plays a band or musician would have to get in order to pull in the minimum wage in the USA. Of course, as many wags and blow-hard desk jockeys will be quick to point out, these musicians should just be doing it for the love of music! Somebody is getting rich from all these streaming services but it isn't the musicians.
