"In it for the Money". I remember chatting to singer Gareth about it and the whole business of bands first album's usually being recorded and produced in excitement and the realisation of a dream.etc......then when the residuals are still years from being forthcoming...the second album that is being demanded by the label is a much more business like affair..with the band still as poor as they were at college, even after all the world tours..and sales and songwriting.<br><br>As john Lennon marvellously put it when Paul Mac wished they had a swimming pool each..

You really should work in communications some how. Perhaps take the lead of the lovely Miss Meagan. Congratulations to all of you upon her being graduated from college. Methinks with her future at SLU that the honorable Elders may have opportunity to sup together from time to time. By the way, when you return to Oxford, the aforementioned pub in an earlier entry of mine is the "Eagle and Child," where your forerunners Eliot and Lewis and Tolkien would quaff ale and discuss literature. Looks like I'll not arrive to London until August 1; I'll miss you by several days.
