"Millionaire writers"...that's a term you've probably heard thrown around in the past few days. "Millionaire writers" are leaving their lavish swimming pools, second homes in Cancun and personal drivers to go and protest the poor struggling studios for more money. If you've turned on the TV over the past few days...this is something you could not avoid.
Well, here are some facts that are missing from that argument. The average salary for a screenwriter is $62 grand a year. Now that's not bad. But it's also not upper class...it's middle class. Now realize half the WGA makes LESS than that every year. All of sudden, these millionaire writers are so millionish anymore.
Friday...Tom Morello and Zac De La Rocha performed at a WGA strike. And when the guys from RATM are taking up your cause...you know you're at least in good company.
Here are the 11 Best Rage Against the Machine Songs:
1. Bulls On Parade (Evil Empire)
2. Killing In The Name Of...(RATM)
3. Guerilla Radio (The Battle Of Los Angeles)
4. Sleep Now In The Fire (The Battle Of Los Angeles)
5. Know Your Enemy (RATM)
6. Bullet in the Head(RATM)
7. Down Rodeo (Evil Empire)
8. Renegades of Funk (Renegades)
9. People of the Sun (Evil Empire)
10. Take The Power Back(RATM)
11. Maggie's Farm (Renegades)

Ca n`t argue with THAT list.
Incendiary !!!!!
Thanks for the post.
Hey acompleteunknown, I stumbled on this blog a while back while searching for Foo Fighters rares, and I found the posts by J. Paul with the two Foo bootlegs, For My Disgrace, and The Height & The Weight.
I've been trying to get ahold of J. Paul, but to no avail, so I can't find an email or anything, about perhaps one day uploading the second part of that series, "There is Something Left to Win"
He said it wasn't uploaded due to time, and I understand that, but I have not been able to find more than a mention of these bootlegs ANYWHERE, let alone another download.
If there is ANY way I could get in touch with him, or he could get in touch with me, I would really appreciate it. He doesn't have to upload it, maybe he could email it to me or send through MSN/AIM or anything, I would gladly upload for everyone else.
If that's too much trouble, and it might be, hehe, then maybe I could just ask that one day, eventually, if he can find the time, J. Paul upload it here for us. There are alot of people who would love to have these 3 bootlegs, and I'd make sure to distribute to them communities it would be best appreciated.
Thanks!
