Re: Andre Lafosse Freebies and sales...

I may be half the guitarist, but I gladly trade that for the ability to 
make music with no expectation of compensation at all.  I couldn't do a 
wedding band thing.  Music is too precious to me.  Instead, I now do 
media design.  Total sell out, but they don't touch my music.

Good luck Andre.  I want to believe you'll succeed.  In a way, you 
have.  On the fringe your either 1) a hack or 2) too advanced to be 
understood my most.  Either way, it sucks, but I think we can all agree 
that you're not a hack.
