If the band do have a problem with this, the "very, very simple solution" may very well be a cease-and-desist letter. Or an injunction.

I'm not a fan of them but he's providing credit to the correct people where 99% don't bother, I'm not sure what the problem is :/

Also, he didn't use it as much as his name suggests

And the poppies manage to just spit a new tune out of the blue today.

See? It's not that hard...

They have an ace mgr tho! He would not be tolerated in the current operation...

Sisters have changed their business model to become a near fulltime touring outfit.

With the best will in the world, there's not enough demand for that.

I'd assume he's on a retainer now between tours, just guessing though.
I can't imagine, having lost Chris, that AE would want to start over if Ben walked and his profile has been growing quite nicely.

He knows what happens to guitarists who don't drop everything to be available when himself calls..

He went off it when he realised some fool had actually come up with a proper bassline.

His main bass was an Ibanez Roadster, I'm sure theres a thread here somewhere..

Will he still get the big cardboard window display in Our Price & Woolworths though?

??? A quick search for "london 2019" and "london 2021" gives both recordings... When I search using those terms, I find recordings by other people, but not czuczu's. I must be missing something... The 2019 one will be there somewhere, genuinely can't remember what I've already shared from 2021.

Source the words/lyrics from existing audio interviews, cut and paste before transposing it all into A Major?

Shame tho, innit. I miss the high standards going with being a difficult sod. We never hear "there's a wrong way and a right way and the hard way is the right away" stuff any more either..

I did one last week, not shared it yet but was some of mine for London 2019 and 2021, then Eggi's Groningen for the next batch and Sisterstekland's Milan for the rest.
Monster was YT sourced.
Probably much easier in 6 months when everything has circulated a little more..

He def said it. Of course he wouldn't agree now but he did say it. I don't think I've ever seen an interviewer ask him if he's happy for all this unrecorded stuff, almost half of his output now, to just get lost to time because he won't record it. He's rarely challenged about it properly and let off...

recording albums is part of a band's job

It seems that it's not. At least not the main task for a band.

If you look back, there's a lovely AE quote from around the time of the Sisterhood split and settlement, and I'm paraphrasing, "Real bands work in studios"

That's just an excuse, surely. He's not stupid and must know that's just an impossible hurdle.
The band is cursed with a comfortable ascetic as front man.

Just ignore the streaming revenue and flog boutique/luxury limited editions and box sets from your own online store and merch stand - most bands of that era do ok - lots of parallels if you look at the 80s/90s mob who are still working. Keep all the income rather than a %. Also, you don't need to ho...

Some days, the big goth hive mind works well

The amount of formatting that is needed to chart/playlist for even major bands is off the scale. Most pre-orders are set up to include multiple copies (including cassettes, ffs), and signing is essential for even stadium headliners. Cos without that week 1 splash, every release just disappears. And ...

The impression of short hair and quick cuts were throwing me off - I've only got a phone with me for looking

Nose and chin are obvious though!

Yay!

Weird coincidence, Reubens then could look quite like TJ today..

I checked yesterday the imdb article about the video. A rather useful tool as all actors are listed in there whatever they do, even in cameo roles and at the cast is only the band members listed, none else. So Tony James is the candidate with the most percent. PeeWee is discarded as option cause if...
