As far as I know all the stuff on Miks site were bootlegs and unavailable
anywhere else, And I would confidently say that no-one has brought something
off Miks site INSTEAD of buying from the shops,We are left with the
situation today of there being no place to buy live KJ DVDs,If they had
loads of titles available in the shops,then i could understand the reasoning
.But now we are left with a void.
    As I said before that KJ should of got all Miks DVD ,took all the best
bits and turned it into a three hour "best of",given away with the first
batch of the new official DVD.Left Mik open,So people who wanted more ,could
purchase them
   Actually KJ did request a copy of all of Miks
mastertapes.......................Opppssssssss..............I do go on at
times.

(Unfortunately they got a negative response)

Your'e right Pete, it would have made sense to formalise the videos thing
but there is much more to it than that.

Basically, Mik was shut down because he was selling the stuff. I think Mik's
a top fella but can understand the reasoning as it wasn't his stuff to sell.
Essentially he was selling studio recordings in the form of the videos and
it "could" be considered that this would be the same as if someone was
selling mp3s of the official recordings.

Bootleg gigs are slightly different but its a very fine line.

The best thing would have been to have git an official video /dvd together
and then close down Mik.

Do you know the reasoning for the management banning Mik's site?
He was nt making much money,selling a nominal amount.And there is no
official release of these recordings.It would of benefited everyone if KJ
would of bought Mik on board,Advertised the site as official and charged 10
quid for a DVD.Everyone a winner.And I hope Mel never made an official
complaint about money and got Mik shut down.................ooopppsssss Me
and my big mouth.
