A DIFFERENCE OF OPINION
The four members of the band were arguing. There was
nothing new in this. They often argued. They argued about
money, clothes, the future…everything, in fact, apart
from music which they all seemed to agree on totally all
the time. Today’s argument concerned a new subject –
advertising. Not advertising their own albums. That was
the record company’s problem. This argument concerned
using their songs in advertisements. The drummer, Jed
was totally opposed to the idea claiming that it would
destroy the band’s reputation for honesty and integrity.
Simon and Karl were unsure. They could understand
Jed’s arguments but the sums of money offered were
ridiculously high. Illegal downloading had hit their CD
sales hard and, although they still made a good living from
touring, that might not last forever. The group probably
would. They would be the reverse Rolling Stones, playing
smaller and smaller concerts as they got older. Selling
tracks for adverts could allow them to relax a little and
concentrate on other projects such as film music. Andy
was totally sure and was trying to convince Jed. “It’s for a
car that we all like. It’s the car that you own. It’s not as if
we’re using our song to sell washing powder or something
we all disapprove of.”
Jed wasn’t convinced. “So, what next?” he asked “Shall
we go on a reality TV show or sell our stories to a tabloid
newspaper?” Simon tried to lighten the mood. “I don’t
think a newspaper would pay much for your private life,
Jed!” Meanwhile Karl tried to get the others back to work.
Their new tour of Britain was due to start in a week’s
time. They’d sold thousands of tickets and a lot of new
fans were going to see them for the first time. People
who knew them would forgive a poor performance but
newcomers would think that the band was always like
that and wouldn’t come back for more.
The four of them stopped arguing and picked up their
instruments. Instantly, the atmosphere changed. Andy
played a few notes of a new song he was working on.
Jed nodded his head enthusiastically. It sounded great. It
wouldn’t be ready to play in the upcoming concerts but
it would be good to have some new material ready for
their next recording. There wasn’t much time to write on
the road. Andy played the notes again and Jed and Simon
joined in. Karl listened carefully. “Has it got a title?” he
asked. “Not yet” said Andy. Karl listened again and
then started singing. The lyrics weren’t perfect but they
expressed what he thought when listening to the music. At
least a few of the words he sang would make it to the final
song. They always did. This was the chemistry that made
them so perfect together. Why couldn’t that chemistry
extend from music to other areas?
