The thing I think alot of people don't realize is with getting pitch sheets not only do they cost a good amount of money (I think songlink is around $750, rowfax $350,and cuesheet is $750)to get, but even knowing who's cutting won't get you in the door. Because then you have to figure out a way to get it to them even though your given the address. If you send it they trash it for the most part(never send songs through the mail unless they tell you to and then offer to bring it). If your unknown(to anyone other than your momma, that's for you R.T. I laughed about that most the day) and try to go in and hand it to the receptionist it gets put to the side. For unknown writers the best route to go is with a songplugger(like Charlie) or a publisher whether its me or anyone else. Or and I have been doing this ever since I started Go to the producer and leave it in his drop box. Even though most the time an intern will be doing the listening. You give 'em a great song. You will hear from them. This isn't meant to bring down morale of anyone. Alot of people that are new are spending tons of money that they could be saving. I just thought I should offer advice because pitchsheets cost, add that into doing demo's, gas at $2.00+. It adds up.
If I can ever be of assistance to anyone in here don't hesitate to ask?
