Just about everything that Frank Turner says or pens hits the nail on the head. Nice to see the Stranger make mention of him. He'll be in Seattle in about a month!

I am so tired of hearing musicians complain about file sharing.

Jus' go out and get a real job like the rest of us.

@2 most of 'em do have jobs, keekee. but as Frank points out, records cost money to make. a lot of money. and most touring bands make their gas money off of selling merch... like CDs and vinyl.
