I didn't say I wouldn't invest. I said I wanted accountability. I've taken
far bigger risks than $50....some acts I've paid for recordings out of my
own pocket because the budgets have already been blown out...and like the
fans who support IKE, I did it because I believe. And yes, there was a catch
to my believing...the act needed to show me they were going to use the money
in ways beyond just recording an album.
