Brother hang in there, there is purpose and hope and will............I have
been doing this for 11 years, few people know my name, let alone my face, I
always kept it incognito, I do it for what I believe in and the respect from
the artist and DJ's is more than enough pay for me. The memories and
feelings can never be replaced by the $$$$$$.

I think we come from the same place.
I have been doing this for five years and believe me I know what goes on but
put it this way, a DJ or producer who breaks through will find respect, even
if he gets riped off. But who respects journalists? Not even the best ones
get respect!!
Magazines in Australia are not like those in the UK, the market is smaller
and there is less money for publishers.
