Personally, I have a couple cousins that I called, and for a few bucks, they offered get me some bookings in AC or Vegas that pay real money--and they have some friends in Houston who would make those"friggin' nobodies at New Folk" an offer they couldn't refuse--I said, "Hey, you friggin' garbage brain! These are nice people, not those scum you hang around with!" And they said,"Shut up your face, are you friggin' Willie Nelson or what? A payoff is a payoff--a shakedown is a shakedown--take care of the judge and you don't need to worry about the jury!" I declined the offer, but I forward their comments, for what they are worth--
