Once again we are seeing fluff and nonsence, in order to support your weak business case, which has no merit.
Me ? Pay $500 because someone wants to work with me ?
No, that's not the way it works. That $500 is paid for from the production budget.
Ever sat in a prodution meeting ? Ever done a production budget ? Quite clearly not. They take hours, often with little achieved.
If your boys were gainfully employed, they would be doing what they love to do, and they wouldn't see the light of day, even to listen to one track of music.
They're clearly not producing music. That's because there is no money left in the cookie jar.
So, what do they do ? Sit and listen to Joe Bloggs and charge them $75 because they have tripped over the odd famous person from time to time.
The real people in the industry are working at their chosen profession. And they're working damn hard just to keep it afloat.
I'm now being laughed at, and called "bitter".
It's a very well known phycological tactic used by scam artists..... I'm sorry, dream merchants,.... to further line their pockets.
When I get invited into a project, it's just that. An invitation.
Do you think in your wildest dreams, that decision makers i.e. those with the deep pockets, are ever going to take a chance on some guy they don't know, from a 5 minute pitch ? ( which don't exist ) Perhaps you should watch more Seinfield re-runs.
Your boys are "opening up" ? What a load of rubbish. They are opening up their empty wallets, for the gullible to fill them.
Please offer you services. Just don't expect old and exhausted industry folks to agree with your tactics or your motives.
cheers, niteshift
PS - you may attack me all you wish. I'm over it.
Now all i can is that you are flat out ignorant and have no idea what you are even talking about at this point. I promise that you could only dream to sit in the meetings and sessions that I sit in and have sat in. If you want to learn more about me and the projects I have been involved with, feel free to check the credits of some of the biggest stars this planet has ever seen in the last 10 years...The Beyonce's and Usher's of the world...Last name is Harrison in case you were wondering. If "My Boys" were gainfully employed???? That is the most laughable statement of this whole thread. "My Boys", meaning the clients and Pro's that accept submissions on Blazetrak won over 15 Grammys just 2 months ago including SONG and RECORD of the year. "My Boys" have made more $$ in music then some small countries have period. "My Boys" are executive producing songwriter shows for Bravo, "My Boys are on American Idol every week as EXPERT judges. "My Boys" are on celebrity apprentice on NBC right this moment, "My Boys" don't know the famous people, they ARE the famous people. Do some research before you say: Paul Worley Rodney Jerkins Evan Bogart Lashawn Daniels Jeff Haddad John Rich Bryan Michael Cox Chuck Harmony Wally Wilson Makeba RIddick Rich Harrison B.o.B T.I. Steve Rifkind and about 350 others are NOT gainfully employed, or NOT producing music, or NOT real people in the industry, or DONT have any money left. Man you sound silly. There is no point in even trying to reason with you because you dont even have a clue about any of this or the people who are involved. Good luck to you all and thanks for listening. Take Care,
