Ones that don't screw musicians and audiences.

Ian,
I checked out your music on My Space. Totally awesome. If you decide to upload any tunes to this site, I'll put them into the rotation on the front page. The front page features the music of members only!
Please say hello to Mike Kammer for me. He's a really talented musician (who I'd like to do a gig with - and you, too)! Take care

Hey Ian,
My people are from Greece & I've been into the odd meter thing since I was a kid! Ivo Papazov is really incredible; check him out on utube (if you haven't already). Holdsworth; nuff said!
