cause this is serious, billy gave those demos out for the fans to enjoy and share with everyone....this isnt right...can someone help this poor guy??? i wish i could...the site is officially closed now, but the admins NEED i repeat NEED to find a way to get in touch with billy....he can straightn all this out...how can something that was given out be under a copyright violation when it was given for the exact reason that this man had them....this is bullshit, this mans life is goin to be ruined cause of this...so sad... i say we all do our part as zwan fans and pumpkinheads alike and make some kind of charity....and we can all help pay for this....because it is partly because of this man that we enjoy the musicwe have......and i think its time to show him that we can do more than just download music for free.....

what i think about people who fail to acknowledge the other members of zwan: without matt, dave, jimmy and paz, billy would be on the streets with a "feed the needy" cup and a rainbow shirt... just kidding billy... billy, put down the gun

But also, keep in mind Wolf said he would talk to the band, and we don't want to clutter the board or harrass the Mods about this issue... if they can't do anything, then they can't.

i dont think the main problem is with things like mashed potatoes etc that were demos given out... it is the live matierial that was hosted. that stuff is what they have a problem with.

no... I don't know wether I'll have to pay... I have appealed to the legal advisor to look at my case and I'm hoping he'll be understanding. But the latest I know is that they do want me to pay. I don't know what will happen. Anyway, my life won't be ruined. It'll just be more... interesting. Yeah, that's the word.
