Damn you McGuinness for wanting to make money for you and your clients, damn you to hell!
The amount of McGuinness bashing that goes on on this site is beyond ridiculous.
I thought he would have loved the Radiohead approachI didn't like the way he criticized Radiohead's approach. It's like he felt threatened or something, and he rushed to call it a failure, when actually Radiohead said the results were much better than some company report said and which everyone publicized.
I don't like how greedy U2 has gotten (u2.com, little on deluxe DVDs, highly priced tickets, etc) and he's at least partly to blame for that.

first get people who are gonna d/l anyway - the fans - to give you some money
get a lot of free publicity
and then make them buy the album in an overprized release later on
as a way to attack illegal downloading Radiohead's approach of course didn't solve anything though
McGuinness of course has his faults like all of us
but mostly he just looks after the band's interest
as is his job
Fat.
^ He's just some fat guy with lots of money.

I know some bands that would love to have had a manager that made them money instead of screwing them over.
You know the "ethical" manager is really a recent invention. How many bands from the 60s, 70s and 80s got screwed as the norm? Brian Epstein wasn't all that, was he?I know some bands that would love to have had a manager that made them money instead of screwing them over.
