Well, this doesn't happen every day

So, like, I had this little section of my web page dedicated to 30 Odd Foot of Grunts. Today, I got an email from an official representative of same, politely requesting that I take down some of the material I had on said page: a few MP3's they'd previously handed out as freebies on their site, a couple lyrics pages that had lyrics not listed anywhere else that I knew of, and my archive of chords/tabulature I had been assembling to share with other TOFOG fans.

I immediately removed the material, of course, and was most grateful that the gentleman in question was extremely polite and gracious, and took the time to answer followup questions I emailed back to him: e.g., was it all right to discuss the chords and tabulature of the songs in email with other fans so long as such material was not posted to the web? (Which, I was informed, was perfectly acceptable.) I also posted an appropriate notice on that part of my site, and posted a similar notice up on the message board of Gruntland.com, and emailed the gentleman back to let him know that this had been done.

I am wondering exactly how intimidated I ought to be by being informed that, quote, "I'll let R know," unquote.

Russel's seen your si-ite... Ha!

At least, uhm, there's the distinct possibility he has. And so, good for you!

*snicker* Well, one of his minions has, apparently. But he was a nice minion, so I'm okay with that.

I am not, however, entirely certain I want Mr. Crowe to be aware that I wrote a sonnet about his cows. ;)

You never know. Maybe he has it tacked up in his, uhm, well, somewhere.

Tacked up on his list of "Weirdo Fans to Avoid", maybe. ;) I can just hear the conversation now:

"Stu! Did you tell that sonnet-writin' weirdo American bird t' take me stuff off 'er web page?"

"Sure did, boss! She did it, too."

"Good!" *beat* "Cows? She wrote a bloody sonnet about me bloody _cows_? Billy and Stewie get musical admiration, Dave gets a sonnet about 'is _hair_, an' I get _cows_?!"

Hm... if he's that aggressive, perhaps he has it in mind to track you down, knock on your door, and lay his hands on you.

-.-

*cackle*

Well, if he shows up during Jam, he'd damn well better bring pie. And we could use a third guitar again on "Mari-Mac". ^_^
