Dear Richard Cheese fan--

I appreciate your support of my music.  However, instead of buying one of my CDs, I would prefer that you please consider donating that money to help those adversely affected by hurricanes, floods, earthquakes, and Republicans.

MAKE A DONATION

Thank you, and best wishes.

Hello.  Thanks very much for buying a fabulous CD from Coverage Records.  We truly hope you enjoy the album, and we also hope you will tell all your friends about Johnny Aloha and Richard Cheese & Lounge Against The Machine.

However, we would like to respectfully ask our customers to resist the temptation to make copies of our songs and give them out via MP3, CDR, email, upload, or any other kind of file sharing.  Unauthorized internet distribution like this is a big problem that really hurts Johnny Aloha, Richard Cheese, and your other favorite artists.

Johnny, Richard, and many other people spent lots of time, energy, and money making these CDs.  We're not a big media corporation with lots of money; Richard and Johnny take money out of their own pockets to pay for these CDs.

So, when you upload MP3s or give away burned CDRs, that means fewer people will go out and buy the CD.  And that means these artists won't be able to recoup their investments, and that means we can't afford to record any more albums.  This is the real and serious consequence of music piracy and illegal downloading.

Yes, the internet helps spread these great songs, and we do appreciate the potential benefits of extra exposure.  But recording, manufacturing, and distribution cost money, and we have to sell as many CDs as possible just to break even.  We aren't in this business just to make money--we don't want a huge profit; just enough to continue making more albums for you to enjoy.

We do this because we love the idea, we love the music, but most of all, we love the fans who support us.  So, please keep supporting us by respecting our hard work, and by making sure you aren't participating in or enabling the crime of stealing music.  Or else I'll come after you with a fucking bayonet.

Johnny, Richard, and I truly appreciate your understanding, cooperation, and help.  Thank you for your loyal support.

Best,

Jack Monterey, Senior Vice-President
