WTF Tina? What's with the snotty attitude? Jesus you wonder why bands don't
support
these forums! Firstly I DIDN'T kick off any debate. It's absolutely the last
thing I'm
interested in. I responded to an earlier message. I do believe I have that
right.

People here wanted some information and I was very happy to provide anything
they
needed. So in what way is Colin's "right idea" any different to what I do with
my bands?
The only difference I can see is that this is ALL I do. I rely on this for my
living. I make no
apologies if that makes me a touch more serious or protective of what I do. IT
MATTERS!

And as for being "precious", if somebody walked into your place of work and
either
intentionally or otherwise, misrepresented the job you do, I'm pretty sure you
would have
an opinion. I think my response was fair and measured. I have no problem with
Colin at
all. I only met him once but thought he seemed like a nice enough guy, indeed
one who
doesn't take himself too seriously!

I'm very disappointed by your post!
