....and another thing...lol.... whilsty taking a break from runnin my hugely profitable business i had a look at your comments that you have left and every single one is negative and insulting. Are you not happy Whatawasteoftime? are you lonely? Did a girl break your heart and rape your arse? IS this the only way you can get an erection by insulting people over the internet? aaahhhh shame, im sure you think your just the coolest cat in class and what you think is all that matters isnt that right whatawasteoftime?

Very true if i had "just" worked behind the counter at HMV for 15 years it wouldnt qualify me to know anything about music, but the point is i have an understanding of the music industry to a certain level which you are saying i do not. and by the way i did wear a name badge when i worked at HMV, it said Manager.

Woop Woop! Whatawasteoftime, you silly, silly thing, in what part of my comment does it say that bands should release the music for free?.....oh it doesnt........and my comment is based on MY own experiances of poor selling Portishead records, i like Portishead by the way, i think its at this point i should mention i have worked in Music retail for 12 years and have put on many indie/alternative nights at my local clubs, promoted bands, 2 or 3 which made it, so i think i am aware of what it takes to make music, and by the way thats not saying you dont. although i do have the impression of you that makes me think your a bit of a bellend!

Mr Barrow i think you should be worrying about how to actually get people to buy your records!!! Dummy aside of course.
