Thanks, Ron. (I know where your heart is, and that maybe you wouldn't support it never once crossed my mind.) The lyrics need tweaking, but that's for later.

Bob, I gotta say maybe he's right and maybe he isn't. Far as I am concerned, MySpace and Youtube are over-rated as promo devices. Nice and all that, but that's because the stuff is free to folks. Free is easy to get rid of. People want free. But I don't get 'free' at the supermarket or music store. No offense meant to you. When shit still requires e-mails and letters because so many 'people of influence' are too busy to even look (and I can understand that) at what's available for free, then them wanting a CD to play on a show just ain't in the cards.

And, I have send stuff to three companies. Two fairly small (in a relative sense) and one fairly large. Not one of the three has bothered to respond. Not a kiss my ass, PFO, suck rocks--NOthing. So I suppose deplorable manners goes along with the business. (BTW, I was given permission by each of the companies to send them a CD.)

In my world, it matters little how many loadings are taking place on Youtube or MySpace. They are successful because they are free. Not because they are good mechanisms for sales or exposure, imo. Of course, I could be wrong.
