Well, there's a lot of tech. stuff involved with today's music. Having a tech. guy as a permanent band member seems an excellent idea. I hope they realise that he's either going to be a full member or an employee. Does he get a share when fame comes (:-) or does he get a wage now?

Yeah, saw that on an e-mail. didn't realise it was an expenses only deal.

Thing is there'll probably be someone out there who'll take it. It'll be a fresh out of university guy probably.
