I was trying to think of something to post that sums up all that is wrong with this ad, but I think you pretty much covered it in three words. Thanks a bunch.

i always thought law was quite relevant to the music industry... you're not suggesting we "serious" musicians should only have part-time jobs are you?

well, yes it does have relevance....can't argue there! Understanding and protecting your intelectual property is hugly important ...and you will have a advantage when you get to that stage in yr music career.
what I should have said in my other post is , I pissed around doing the wrong shit for the wrong reasons (like trying to please my parents) when I was younger instead of doing what I love which is of course music, and made myself really unhappy. wasted a lot of time and energy.

Good luck, hope you find some like minded musicians to work with...(praps not so much chance on this board as it seems to be populated with narrow minded assholes.. )
have you checked out parachute productions?

Check out his older posts, and then see what you think Birdi. Your "narrow-minded" comment is pretty ironic.

Let me refresh your memory:

i think the reason why so many musicians are left wing is because so many of them are poor and uneducated, can't make their own money so they take it off those who have earned it, hate right wingers 'cos they think they have some special right to drag them down (probably 'cos they're envious).

what i'm saying is while Jesus does teach us to be graceful, he was caring and compassionate to those who deserved it. as for this Labour government, it's about taxing those who have actually made an effort to better their lives and giving it to people who are lazy.

Actually it's not that i don't agree with giving my money away to the poor, i just don't agree with the government taking it and thinking it knows what's best to do with it. i'd rather put the $50 per fortnight i'm taxed on my part time job in the offering bowl at church rather than have the government waste it on its own initiatives.

The left think that the more money you take off a rich person and give to a poor person the better off they will become, but i reckon all it does is keep them dependant on the state and stall economic prosperity.

And why are you called JesusCrux? Isn't the use of Jesus' name as your own a little... well... unchristian?

Chi is a hell tough name. I would totally lose the Jesus Crux name and go with just Chi. It's vicious. But that's me.

//Jesus Crux is a stage name i've used since i was 16 when i entered the rockquest, although i have to admit i wasn't a Christian back then and i was using it just for fun and i had to add the Crux on at the end 'cos the organisers wouldn't allow me to enter as "Jesus"

Aha! I knew that name rang a bell! Dude I played in the same RQ as you. Right now I'm really, really wishing I could remember what your music was like.

Insipid from Nelson Boys. We were in the 2000, 2001 and 2002 RQ's.

Ha, thanks. I'm now a washed-up fat ex-RQ winner. With a bad memory.

do you believe the world was created by accident, and that yourself and other people are mutation's casual produce? i find this much more phantastical and improbable than believing in a
God. i personally find it more believable, that we were created by a Creator, rather than by accident. we can't have created ourselves

speaking of Family Guy, did everyone see that episode last night with the "Four Peters"? man that was awesome, i need an mp3 of it!

Cynic says
Hello Heather.

cynic is
bored

Where?
on tv?

Cynic shouldn't be bored
returning to Auckland in a week

Cynic is recording Chicago
so the moment will be captured forever
onto a 60 cent dvdR

Currently
in Arrowtown.

It is.
Still cynic misses the noise
and smog of Auckland

And all the great
Auckland bands.

The Cynic
is a polymath
but chooses to do
nothing.
Do not ask
What is the Cynic good
at
Ask what can
Old Tom NOT do.

It seems the only things the cynic
can't do
is
run for the Mayoralty
and deface Liz Shaw's
Wikipedia entry
with the Cynic's announcement
he will run against her
and save Auckland

it might be considered hijacking an entry
apparently
to do that.
But some might think this is
an attempt
to hijack a thread.
