So hes the asshole doing this. He can rot in hell tbqh.
Owen Miller
Someone should print this and send it to him
Cameron Rogers
>he ends up writing a letter to TPB
Andrew Allen
>>sends personal emails to streaming services demanding they remove King Crimson songs Take it up with your label, asshole, they're the ones who own the recordings, not you. Don't like it? Should have self-distributed.
Aaron Nguyen
sounds like someone heavily invested in the art of music
I see no issue with this

Isaiah Moore
Yeah he deserves to rot in hell because entitled crybabies like you are upset.
Adam Cox
You know your social media website is worthless degeneracy when any amount of free thought is brushed off with some retarded Orwellian label like "autism". You whiny idiots are the worst, if I was an artist I would confiscate your cameras too, bitch.
You entitled whiners deserve nothing but contempt.
I'm sure a weak minded fool like you is unable to imagine other peoples' perspectives without getting triggered...talk about autism!
Dylan Miller
>implying poor people deserve to be happy imagine thinking streaming music is actually a viable way to entertain yourself like yes good boy continue basically stealing the music while big corporation makes 99.9% of the profit and leaves the artist with nothing
Evan Cook
>calls other entitled whiners >while defending a stupid cunt who sold his recordings to a major label and then got pissed off when they ended up on streaming services mysides.exe
Gavin Wilson
calm down Robert, you're gonna have a stroke
Anthony Young
>implying this isn't the same for any method of distributing recorded music Are you retards literally like 12? You never got curious about the labels you buy your music from to even bother looking at Wikipedia to see how they work?
Dylan Morgan
>he buys from major labels even if you had a valid point (you don't) that alone makes you an idiot
Owen Turner
The Illuminati will kill him like they did Prince, then all his music will be free to stream online anywhere.
James Cooper
How do you acquire music?
Cameron Bennett
>like yes good boy continue basically stealing the music while big corporation makes 99.9% of the profit and leaves the artist with nothing
he said, with probably a hard drive full of downloaded music.

You understand that the labels own the actual recordings, and even when they don't, they do all the distribution, right kiddo? Regardless of format, or which "indie" imprint you've bought from, you've paid a major label for the privilege.
Oh, and by the way, the "indie" labels? They take just as much as the major labels. The artists actually gets jacked twice on those deals usually, because the "indie" label pays a larger label for distribution, and it comes out of the artist's end.
That was obviously exaggerated. I dont want him to ACTUALLY rot in hell. Its like saying "go to hell", you dont actually mean it
Robert Davis
You're an idiot. Kek.

Jayden Hill
the real problem is he's a failed real artist who had to settle for being one of the great progressive rock artists (which in comparison is like being the tallest dwarf). he then took out this frustration on his visibly slack-jawed and stupid rock fanbase
Great thread guys. Can we play a game where we show our legally purchased copies of my-I mean King Crimson's albums? Just for fun.
Alexander Ortiz
Not knowing what Discipline Global Mobile is all about. Fripp owns all the rights to KC's music and legacy. You have to kind of admire the guy for his dogged determination to glean every bottom dollar from his art.

The current incarnation of KC is coming to a city near me in November, should I go?
Do you think Tony Levin ever accidentally falls asleep playing pre-Discipline songs?
Gavin Edwards
You talking about Milwaukee? Thinking of going with a few friends, pretty excited.
Dominic Green
I dunno I mean it's not like as cool but Rob's still there and the other guys playing with him should at least be competent
Nah this one's in Allentown PA
Jeremiah Adams
yes. saw their chicago show last month and it was absolutely fucking mind blowing. fripp sounds as good as ever and the band was unreal. one of the best shows ive ever seen without a doubt
