Doc let me be the first to say that this is a very nice gesture from your part, and the letter is quite touching. In this case it's the thought that counts...
I would be more then happy to support your idea, but I think we need to think this over more. We don't want to offend Alizée or her family as others have said, and I don't think this would make any difference for her financially. I agree with investing the money to promote her, and maybe even to bring her here to play somewhere. Although I doubt we can afford her, but it's still a good idea Chuck.
