As you know, the Band do not want these tapes released, not least as they haven't heard them despite you saying you would provide copies long ago. You know that, as a band, Black Sabbath don't take things lying down and you can be assured that if you go ahead with this against the Band's wishes we will take any action where their rights are infringed, both here and in America.
I'm really happy that we are talking, because one of the things that's frightening me is all this false press about [how] we've made $140 million and all of this, and I'm like, 'God, I wish we could have, for one gig,' it's just ridiculous, the different stories. I went on the internet the next morning and it was like, $140 million, $160 million. And I'm like, 'Where does this stuff come from?' And people like Billboard have printed it.
