Some inside baseball: My friend lived in the apartment next door to Blake & Adam off 20th St & Mission in SF before Blake moved to Oakland. My friend's 2BR/1BA apartment was $300/month. My friend also moved to Oakland (downtown tho) around the same time and rented a floor in an old rundown victorian for $125/month. The bay area was in a recession and the earthquake recovery was still pretty slow.

It was featured in the documentary that Blake stated he would never go major just 4 weeks before actually signing to one and I did get that they shot themselves in the foot that way, but the fact that some former friends outright refused to talk to them still surprised me.
Is Mute counted as a major?
One of the issues I've seen coming up with indies is that they can't always keep up the supply when something sells extremely well and that a big enough success could destroy a small label. But how often does that happen?

It seems like bad decision-making destroys small labels, but massive sales allows them to make bad decisions on a larger scale.Lookout apparently went nuts with all the Green Day back catalog money coming in, but there was also an ownership change.Dischord managed Fugazi selling a million records though...
Isn't Dear You making more money for Jawbreaker under their own label than it did on Geffen?

Speaking of Fugazi, I guess Ian Mackaye is a fan of Jawbreaker. There's a photo circulating of Ian watching these guys play at the Fillmore Silver Spring, near Washington DC last night (standing by himself in a side of stage area reserved for special guests)

Classic record. Not my fave because I'm a weirdo who loves Bivouac more, but still a great one.
