Spam in my private messenger!!

Hi Nacho,

Thanks for your thoughts. The "masterpiece" thing is just what they have on the review site here if you get more than four and a half blobs. I think you have to take it with a bucket of salt! Glad you're enjoying it anyway.

Yes I know what you mean about the Phil Collins quotes - it might put me off as well! Having said that, he really was very helpful and I have to be grateful for that.

The "piracy" question is something I've thought long and hard about and I agree with everything you say. I hear about all sorts of new bands and artists on these forums and lists but I can't afford to shell out £15 for a CD just in case I might like it. I can't understand why more people don't do it either. The "illegal" copying of music is the best and cheapest form of promotion that the record industry has and has been for the last thirty years.

Enough! I could go on about this all day...

The best statistic of all... since we put up the free, full download, CD sales have gone up by more than a factor of 10. So if any other bands or artists want to do this, let me know.

Dominic

Hello Ben and all,

Thanks for being so gracious about this.

I've just read the reviews on the site here and they are saying that Cerulean Blue is "a masterpiece of progressive rock", so I have to stick around now, don't I!

Thanks

Dominic

BTW Ian the admin guy says some people are still getting these messages. If anyone has a problem can they let me know?

Hi all,

Just thought I'd let you know that this is my album and the guy who posted all the spam to you did so without my knowledge or permission (he also did this on another mailing list and I'm still running around trying to pick up the pieces). I've discussed this with the moderators and it won't happen again (The guy is a "fan" who thought he was trying to help -  good intentions and the road to hell etc etc).

I'm really sorry if this has irritated anyone and I'm only glad I found out about it before it went too far.

Thanks for your understanding.

I listened,it is compelling in an odd kind of way.
