let's stop all the talk and actually come together as a group and do something productive (for a change.) why not start a label consisting of idm posters/lurkers? we can pool our money, and choose the releases based upon vote. (democratic enough, right?) if we can get enough people to pitch in, i reckon it would be pretty cheap to press up a few hundred vinyl. the thing is, we'd have to pick a *trustworthy* individual to handle the money and relavent matters. that's where it becomes complicated, as it seems everyone is busy these days blasting someone else for ripping them off. too bad, it's a nice idea. we could sollicit demos and maybe even digitize them and put them up on the web for those who pitched in money to checkout and listen to and vote for their favorite artist/s. the format could consist of a compilation, or it could be more simple, just a 12" for starters. if some of you spent as much time reading and posting to idm as trying to actually put something good out, well shit, we'd actually have something. i think it's time to try to think of ways to resurrect this list, here's my idea for starters. as always, love ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
