I doubt you'd have many artists that agree with you on that one. Somehow I don't think that RDJ, Autechre, FSOL, and all would love to be on the cover of Rolling Stone and have their videos played on MTV twenty times a day. I'm not being ellitist or crying sell-out or saying 'keep it underground.' As we say in America, 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it.' Why should we bother catering our music to a anyone else.? If they don't find it on their own, its their loss... /""'' /"'RESH Live and Direct from the G-Spot Orange County, California, USA
