Thank you. In the scenario I envisage, the technical lead becomes the CEO assuming I do not travel to California. I am looking for a high calibre team and feel that I and the idea warrants one. I am sacrificing my control and equity by recruiting on HN in this manner, and I agree with you about the 'tech guy' often receiving the raw deal at times, and have actually worked as that person numerous times -- the sub-ordinate in 3 non-VC backed startups already, including a ticketing startup. I am more than happy to grant more equity to other cofounders than myself: it would depend on how much input they want from me. I have also been a drummer and know what it's like for musicians and managers to organize gigs and tours.
