My first band band went through an abbreviated version of that......3
managers in 4 years followed by a split. Luckily for us, we were so friggin
poor that no one figured they could get a penny so we walked away from it.
Somewhere in the fray, my Super Reverb, Bassman, Gretsch Tennesean, and two
old strats ended up going bye-bye.......but part of that was to pay the
dealer ( a singularly evil kinda' person.even during the *Summer Of Love*)
so that he wouldn't kill the girlfriend of the roadie who used to score the
little black biphetamine 20 capsules and other stuff that she used to buy
for manager #3 so he could turn around and give it to the band members so
they could stay awake long enough to practice, gig and finish their high
school homework in order to keep working so that they could pay said manager
his cut.. The Turtles didn't mention the dealer and the roadie's girlfriend,
but I'll bet they were both part of that gig.

Gotta' love those bands.

;o)

See, you HAVE to do things that way, though - since musicians
are always broke, the only way you can screw them out of money
is to manufacture it in that manner & then never let 'em see any
of it!
