[Fmpro] Les Hurdle

[Robert Stanton]

Hi there,
Well, for what it's worth I've been looking over it and haven't found the
time yet to give it its due justice so I haven't posted a response.  I did
join the forum though and hope to be able to add something of value - I'm in
and out right now though so it's not great timing.
Cheers!

Yea well thats the problem in a nutshell. I posted Mark Northams suggested
bill of rights for ascap composers and asked the list for suggestions. just
for SUGGESTIONS, not even to committ to it in any way shape or form yet...
and 2 people have bothered to taken time to talk about any of those 12
points. I am feeling pretty disgusted at this moment. I understand why Les
left is because of that apathy found among our group and I am starting to
see it very clearly. So sad so sad. When there are no more royalty payments
made and every music is done for sync only on a pro level colliding with
everyone willing to work for free on the noob level I am going to be really
sad. The trends are already set in place, time to wake up and grow some
backbone folks. The bill of rights is one good, democratic, fair and
non-violent way to at least begin to define what we want and what we should
be getting.

FYI Les Hurdle has left the FMPRO list, so any responses to his posts should
be emailed directly to his email as shown in the posts, rather than to the
list. Best, Mark Northam

------------------------------------------ What what what? I'm in the middle
of trying to make a deadline so gotsta post and run (as usual), but would
like to say a quick word about LH - FMN hosted a thing a while back where
production library reps did a panel discussion on aspects of the library
business - Les was the only cat in the room with enough guts to voice his
dissatisfaction that these american companies weren't sharing mechanicals
with composers. If we all grumbled as much as Les, we'd probably be in a lot
better shape than we are............ A Fez
