Who's he an employee of?? IIRC, he's probably a 1099 wage earner and independently employed.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around what a " boutique lawsuit" is?? Never heard such term in the legal community.

I think you'll find that SortaSavageLike was being humorous.

I was responding to Bandon's joking (?) suggestion that Lindsey file for Unemployment. It depends on how he pays himself. If he pays himself with a W-2 then he could file a claim for Unemployment. If it's a 1099 then no. It depends on what offers the most tax benefits. When they file there's probably a K-1.

Omg...of course I was joking. Why would he need or want to collect unemployment? He's a multi- millionaire. Just trying to lighten the conversation.

Just saw this on twitter:

Unlike FM, we do not look forward to our day in court as this process is not one to relish. We do look forward to truth, fairness and closure however. Thank you for all your support.

I like that statement! TRUTH, FAIRNESS and CLOSURE! Hope they get everything they're seeking. Truth reaveled that Stevie overreacted and the band didn't have just cause to dismiss Lindsey. Fairness that Lindsey gets the money and goodwill he is entitled to for everything he's done to make FM what it is today. Closure that he never has to deal with FM again and can move on to his solo career and other musical collaborations full time. Less drama, no BS, and freedom. And that's NO JOKE!

Only a person with no morals thinks that way.

Your responses regarding KB's statement remind me of the denouement of the first Harry Potter book.

It was agony to touch a person marked by something so good.

Lindzers sold HIS catalog a few years back. Got a boatload of $$. That also doesnt mean its not nearly gone as well. Read this old Courtney Love missive (18 years OLD) but a timely article that I had read years ago about the music industry/business and how its like a casino. The house (aka label) always wins.

If you havent seen this before, take time to do the math in your own head and see just how much the artists get screwed when it comes time to divvy up the $$. Its a must read to give some insight into why Lindsey is doing what he's doing. I even recall Billy Corgan of the SP stating that he gets about 10 cents a song as writer , BUT a whole lot less than that as the recording artist because of the contract and the way its divvied up.

That surprises me. I guess that explains the Anoro commercial.
