Thanks Brian for your thorough post!

Actually, I'm signed up with TAXI myself, so all I wanted to promote was that I hope their screeners feel comfortable and happy when doing their job, as that helps me in the end to have professional listeners to my songs.

I felt that the Perry story somehow implied that the screeners had a hard time working there, so that was the trigger for my comment. I have no business at all bashing TAXI, as they provide outsiders like me with hope and excitement about my future course of actions in the music business. Even if it only stays with that, I'll die happy.

So.. Im pleased to learn you have such a great relationship with ML, that you are able to get this correspondance across. I feel honored that tou are doing such a great job on the JPF members behalf, Brian!

And.. It feels good to know first hand, that the TAXI screeners actually are happy doing their job, and that the organization is professional all around.
