Just got back from T in the Park. We played T break which is a stage for unsigned bands. We played our set and after we played an A&R man from Sony came up and offered us a deal. We're meeting him next Wednesday. Pretty soon I won't have the time to talk to you loser wannabees(never will be's). |

THAT sounds like it will work out good. Some guy in a park making decisions for sony. I'm sure he's really in it to further your career and sign unnoticed talent. *steps off soapbox* |
||||||||

What the fuck are you talking about? I'll e-mail you letter if you want. You jealous jealous guy. Can't take it? |
||||||||

Bill, some guy in a park offered you a record deal. your telling us on a messageboard how that makes you better than us...... -------- in any event, if someone with clout says you have talent, and you were smart, you'd tell him to kiss off, then shop your record around to labels. If you really do, then when a label responds to your CD, YOU are in the driver seat, not some guy pushing record deals in a park. I'd trust him more if he was selling drugs :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Jealous. Just keep selling petrol you jealous jealous nobody. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
lol, some A&R person came up to you in a park bill. I'm not trying to cut you down, but the premise you base your fame on so far is lame at best. |
||||||||
|

oh snap thats way nasty |

I don't want to humiliate you, but T in the Park is the biggest music festival in Scotland. This was the main A&R man for Sony Scotland. I don't want to say his name but his is quite well known. He's been after us for a while. He just wanted to see us play in front of a big crowd. So all i can say is, Keep reading the NME. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
keep? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Sony Scotland hahaha! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if he has been after you for a while, that's different, he must really want the money. Your lack of fame doesn't humiliate me, the fact that some A&R guy in scotland cares about doesn't negate the fact that I don't. People who sell out to Sony should be heard anyway, what a shit label, but I'm sure you've done your homework. how do you take Bill's name and then whore yourself to a major label? you humilate me?.............pfffffft |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Laugh on fuckface. You'll be wanted to buy our records and give me a blow job in 6 months. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
btw: I'm going to remember to keep my radio tuned to 99.9MainStreamPop hope to hear you soon! |

I'm a fifth columnist. Like the manics. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
lol, you'll take down sony greed from the inside once you have your record deal eh? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
That's the idea. Take their money and fuck them. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if you are using your music as a tool against affluenza, then I guess I have to shut my mouth. either way, I would never buy a records from Sony from a band that was claiming to be anti-establishment I think you have a credibility problem there, you sure aren't pulling a Fugazi here that's for sure. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Fugazi? Fucking fakers. We're the real deal. We're 4 real. You will treasure this day for the rest of your life. And beyond. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
whatever bill, best of luck to you. I'll make sure to tell all my friends. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
WHOOHOO ! THERE IS A GOD ! ! ! could you still be a bit more specific on the "Pretty soon" part derek? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
btw you still haven't told how your band is called, you're not ashamed or something ey. and i thought it was the normal procedure to get arrogant after you got signed |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hahaha thats classic. you know, you probably don't have to wait for six months for that B.J. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
C'mon then give us some details. Do you play drippy indie music or wussy pop punk? And are you the 2nd guitarist? Or did u drink too much free Super T? (I am interested btw) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Sony has a great back catalog of classical music. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
All right. Seeing you guys are all so eager to see which future rock god you were talking to, I'll give you the band's name one letter at a time. The first letter is .......T |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I might have guessed you were in a "The" band. So what is it? The Jakeys? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The second letter isn't an H. I'll give you the second letter next week. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|

|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
His name's David O'Hagen. Don't know if it's the same guy that you know, but that's his name. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
cheers,man. You'd think that all these guys would be pleased for me. But all i get is jealousy and bitching. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

Congrats! So what kind of music are you doing? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Thanks again. I know David works for Sony and whatever but he seemed really honest and into his music and there was none of the usual A&R bullshit. We'll see next week, but I have never been so confident in my life of something good happening. |
