The Sound Man Glyn Johns
For some reason I felt like being real today. For some reason the idea of being open had to make its way to the surface. I sit with extremely creative people every day. We're told its a gift. But what is the gift if its endlessly being stolen? God! What were you thinking? Take it back!!! How many people are you injuring when downloading free music, stealing books and or movies. How many people are you injuring by ignoring copyright laws?

Keeping him focused is a new attraction to lineup.
