$0.02 worth here: I'd rather see this thing left wide open, like it
always has been. (I mean, how the hell else is a hack like me ever
gonna get a cut on a CD next to a player the magnitude of Larry
Pattis? Or Stephen Dillon? Or... all the other players whose killer
cuts mine have paled next to...?)
And anyway, I wanna hear what El & Larry have up their sleeves!
B-{)}
Let's do it the way we've always done it.
There, that's about 2 cent's worth. Carry on...
