I have just confirmed with Ronnie that he is going to give the infamous talk on the finances involved with major label recording deals that was first put together by Steve Albini. I've seen it a few times and it's fascinating and very good for any bands who think they want to be signed, which I think is all of them!
Hope everybody comes down for this.



All the best,
Dave
