No Performance tax. uhh..........

Hi All,By now you all probably heard on your local radio stations talking about this issue,The record companies want to tax the radio stations for playing tunes which the stations are paying the royalties costs of playing the artists records.If congress passes this bill,Which would run its course by next year.This could cripple the radio industry.The artists probably wont see a dime from this tax,the record companies will take the loot to fill in the losses due to the current economic downturn in sales plus the damage the internet.so if congress pass this,alot of radio stations including college stations will stop playing music to go to talk,sports or sign off.internet streaming probably will be history too.

So We on here will continue to support Stevie/Lindsey and rest of the Fleetwood Mac members music, and go to a zillion of their concerts in the past, also continue to support them in the future as will.Please do so.

Also please do support your other favorite artists too.

Google or Yahoo " No Performance tax" to get more info.

please feel free to express what you all think of this.

My opinion, it will get toss out.To much to be loss at these hard times.

Who said video killed the radio star? It's the record companies.
Maybe I should write a song about it?
