Transcript from an Interview with ImLen

Do you play live?

not me but my wife plays Violin in the Shasta Symphony and my three sons and my Daughter play Gigs from time to time. as the warmingtons here in town. every once in a while they play one of the tunes I made. that puts a big Grin on my face and mostly nobody throws stuff at them much anymore.

How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?

Well, if it had not changed it you would not be reading this. you would be reading the back of a cd at your local Licorice Pizza.

Would you sign a record contract with a major label?

Here is how it would have to be. I would need a large paper Sack of cash. then before I would sign anything I would need complete control of everything. give up no rights to the music. I would need to be able to produce anything I wanted and not have to meet any kind of quota. I would need to be able to keep at least 95% of any monies produced from any aspect of my artistic endeavors. also be under no obligation to perform anything at any time ever. lastly I would need a clause where I could change any aspect of the contract at anytime I choose. without prior notice. and yes I Live in a Fantasy world always have..
