Sounds like a fine and noble plan, assuming we live in a socialist society.

I hope musicians will not be requiring any dental work.
Or food, shelter, or clothing.
Anyway, starving artist chic is not about to go away.
Does require a bit of heroin to fully deck oneself out with fab gauntness,
and that's no cheap substitute.

Either that, or let's just say - keep the day jobs!
(Anyone who thought they would actually make money in music is on the wrong
mailing list.
Spice Girls wanna-bes please exit stage left.)

Lost my thread there, but it's of no consequence.
It was an odd time anyway.
