crosseyed: Crosseyed, the point he is making (and I say that witout any irony) is *we are not his customers*.
We are just some guys he let's play in his backyard for nickels because he happens to have it and we are willing to.
Not that I like it, but it is a valid business decision. I also hear that he doesn't care too much financially if we all get pissed and go away and pay somewhere else.
So - face it - he is offering us to play in his backyard for nickels, but he doesn't clean it for us. And we can take it or leave it, and we can like it or not.
Again, I'm not happy about it, but I understand this as a business decision, and can accept it.
