Giving us another reason to love him and his silvery locks, David Byrne recently used his blog to clarify and refine claims he made about home recording and the music industry in a Wired article (no, not the one with Thom). In the post, he notes that after the Wired piece ran, he received letters from two Canadians -- Jane Siberry (now called Issa?) and ex-Arcade Firer, current studio co-owner Howard Bilerman -- suggesting home recording's not as inexpensive as Byrne makes it sound, that most folks still use an engineer, musicians still often need advances to record if they don't own all the expensive home equipment, etc. Byrne, admitting he too isn't entirely DIY, prints their letters, along with his responses that "in general, though I exaggerated too much in the Wired piece, the costs have indeed come down dramatically." Makes sense he'd be honest, dude does swear on Neon Bible.
