Just saw this article on Hacker News, pretty good read.

basically record labels are evil

she insists that the band would be better off working at 7-11, but mentioned that each band member for the first album only really makes 45k that year before release. in what country could every single band member working at 7-11 make 45k? are they all going to be store managers?

I think that was hyperbole to illustrate the relative difference in profits of bands vs record labels

She has to be smart. After all, she murdered Kurt Cobain.

lol. I agree. Do you believe she pulled the trigger?

[Feachie]

Of course not. Heroin pulled the trigger, but it was Courtney's idea.

[deakolt]

your anger is well placed young neeecromancer. I still have friends hung up on the idea that she shot him-

she's a cunt but she's not stupid :p
