lpu and militia matierial will always get leaked, i would join the LPU for something like a meet and greet, cause i thinkk militia members got to meet and greet when FM were at the enmore, which is cool...but it only happens ever so often and at selected venues. another plus was the whole.LPU members got to see the band for free at small venues awhile back, that woulda been good.
i mean other than discounts and the remote chance your venue is a meet and greet...there really isnt much worth to then LPU or Militia...
theres also no guarantee mike will actually go solo,maybe for another album...but as a career change? i doubt it...hes into the producing side of things, though itd be great to see mike push on after LP, its highly unlikely because of the machine shop stuff, he could produce upcoming albums from singers...bands etc
