Ahh, it&#39;s been too long.&nbsp;&nbsp;We needed a good flame war.&nbsp;&nbsp;I share Lydia&#39;s<br>disappointment with EMI, but I long ago accepted the fact that PSB<br>wouldn&#39;t be dominating the charts like they used to.&nbsp;&nbsp;They&#39;re still
<br>producing great work, but this isn&#39;t the late 1980s anymore.&nbsp;&nbsp;The smart<br>artists will use the Internet to drive ticket and merchandise sales<br>when they tour.&nbsp;&nbsp;But...what do I know about the music industry?<br>
<br>Somebody please refresh my memory...<br><br>Who was the American fellow with an amazing collection of PSB stuff who<br>suddenly disappeared from the &#39;net a few years ago?&nbsp;&nbsp;I can&#39;t remember<br>his name, but I remember he just gave up one day and stopped posting on
<br>the newsgroups and mailing lists.&nbsp;&nbsp;I&#39;ve always wondered what happened<br>to him.<br><br>Does anyone know where I can buy a US or UK gold or platinum award for<br>a PSB single or album?&nbsp;&nbsp;I&#39;d like something to hang in my office that
<br>lets people know what is and isn&#39;t important to me. :)<br><br>Thanks!<br><br>--<br>Thomas C. Mueller<br>Madison, WI, USA<br><br>--- derekbd &lt;<a href="mailto:derekbd@yahoo.com">derekbd@yahoo.com</a>&gt; wrote:<br>
