The protest lasted 2 months and only ended >when MCA recinded the increase. Exactly - that was a *business* decision based on Tower's (correct) belief that they were a sufficiently important outlet that they didn't have to accept MCA's new pricing. It *wasn't* an emotional decision based on the *content* of the MCA releases, or personal dislike of some MCA executive.
  2. >Tim Lowe was in jail for the death of a client during a >particularly rough scene. He was eventually acquitted, if >memory serves, but nobody would work with him after that. Yes, I believe that the client (actually Tim's sugar-daddy du jour) died from a heart attack while (consensually) tied up after doing more drugs than were evidently good for him. Thinking (correctly) that all of this would be a little hard to explain to the cops, Tim and his girlfriend took off in the guy's car. I'm pretty sure that in the end he wasn't convicted of anything connected with the death itself, but I think he did some time for stealing the car and some credit cards etc.
