I thought that you were a recording studio, a record label, and a successful booking agent with a huge database...

Maybe the "Independent Record Label and Artist Collective" part of your website confused him.

Uh, yeah, right. Which explicitly states "THIRD MONK DOESN'T OFFER RECORD DEALS".

Technically, it says you don't "offer" them which is why he was asking you!

Both excellent questions.

Why do I even try... when dwlb can just slip in something this good and make it look so effortless.

For the record, Joe, nicely played.

But you didn't tell him what thirty five bucks could get him?

So, Jeff.

A record label that does not do recording contracts?

GENIUS. Or mad. I cannot decide...

hold on, i'll go get him.

MSE trundles over to Third Monk, knocks politely on door. No answer. Notices ringer, tries that. Nothing. Goes around to the back, brushes dirt and debris from a window and peers in. All that's visible is a lone desk, cluttered with dozens of band demos and a half-finished bottle of YooHoo.

Returning to the front, he fishes a credit card from his wallet and hopes the old college door-carding skills are still intact. Alas, time has not been kind and the door remains closed. Dammit. He casts his eyes skyward in hopes of an answer. And there it is. The chimney. Perfect! He ascends to the roof, and looking like a suitless Santa on a starvation diet, gingerly lowers himself into the chimney.

Emerging into the well-appointed client lounge, he wipes soot from his eyes, helps himself to a handful of Hershey Kisses from the dish on the receptionists' desk, and begins quietly wandering the halls on tiptoe. Realizing the whole place is wall to wall 2" thick shag carpet, he decides tiptoes are probably unnecessary and starts walking normally.

After passing through the live room, he comes to the control room and quietly opens the door. There, asleep on the couch, is the one and only Jeff Robinson. MSE goes over and gently nudges Jeff on the shoulder. "Hey man, wake up." Jeff groggily mumbles "5 more minutes" and pulls the blanket over his head. "No man, NOW. Dudes on the board have a question. IT'S IMPORTANT." Jeff slowly opens his eyes, sees a complete stranger covered head to toe in black soot, and screams.

FIN

Weren't you covered in black soot in that Roh Delikat promo shot? You're covered in black soot a lot, man. Something we should know?
