Mixerman has been posting on rec.audio.pro for years. I would suppose many know his real identity. Anyways, he lost me when he said the project could last a year.

Truth is usually stranger than fiction.

I think this is semi-bogus, not necessarily based on an actual occurence, but more compilation of sorts, you know kinda like network television news

I think it's true. He's just trying to get a book deal.

At first, I found it amusing and informative. But (after a few weeks of reading his "woes") I feel only an insecure masochist would put up with all that crap. This guy has no balls, no self-respect, and I therefore have little sympathy for him.

People can only continually crap on you if you continually let them. [This message was edited by Donny Hinson on 31 August 2002 at 11:05 AM.]

I disagree. He's a pro doing his job.
He's being well paid or he'd be long gone.

Similar to many pro studio players.

It is pretty hard to believe! Still, I'm on the edge of my seat wondering what could possibly happen next.

Ohhhh...I'm sorry. You see, I thought he was complaining about all that stuff he's going through.

Since he's a "pro", I guess he's supposed to put up with all that crap!

Makes me glad I never got above "amateur".

My point is he is not complaining to those that hired him. He's doing his job and getting paid.

He's complaining to us and the rest of the world, but that doesn't matter.

Agreed!
