Silverman only shows we need to no longer pay attention to such measures, as they no longer reflect the reality of the music industry.

This was the response I received: "I haven't "demanded" anything from you. If you do not appreciate the manner in which you've been engaged, then simply delete the email. We all receive what we consider to be "spam" and deal with it without having a rant...." So rather than engage they went on the attack. This demonstrates to a manager that they have a bad attitude. They also seem to justify their email could be considered as "Spam", which it now will be.... How not to get ahead.. If they had read the blog carefully and engaged with me via Facebook or via these comments, or sent a polite reply as some other bands have, they would have moved up in my estimation.

The people mailing you don't even know you well enough to know how to get the attention of yourself or any manager, dispite being quite clear at your lectures. Definately developed my approach and it's worked 10fold. Thanks Agreed, taking the time to understand people and see if you get along is key.
