Chris, although it might not have seemed it, I am total agreement that things like the WAP marketing Thunder are doing is a step in the right direction. We've been involved in exercises like this too, and they are beneficial.

I've known the guys at Townsends for years and they are all good chaps, they are passionate about the acts they get involved with (like Toby Jepson) and I'm all in favour of indies getting involved and expanding the market.
