I gots no love for Warner Records.

Mr. Sofie's Uncle Irving got screwed when he owned Giant Records with them.

It's an old trick. Gin up tens of million dollars in "promotion" costs (mostly Spago lunches and trips to Acapulco with the secretary), then let the artist "work it off". If they ever get that balance down to zero, then they might make a few bucks. For 99% of the bands out there that get signed, they will go to their graves "owing" the industry millions of dollars.
