Live 8
// July 6th, 2005 // General
Nice to see that some musicians haven’t just saw Live 8 as a publicity stunt,
- Pink Floyd
- The Who
- Annie Lennox
- Keane
- and a few more
have all decided to donate “extra royalties made from increased sales”.
Note that this means that say they were selling 1000 units a week, and that’s gone up to 10,000, they’ll only donate their royalties for 9000 units. Which is fair enough I suppose. The main thing to note is that the record companies haven’t said that they’ll dish out their extra royalties, surprisingly enough.
