Hi Brian,

well you make some excellent points of course as does Big Jim and many others. It probably is more of a supply and demand issue than real talent,lol. To your point if you have 10,000 songs and 10 people(exaggerating of course) to listen to them--stands to reason they're not all goin got get heard, and the songs by someone who has a name will be heard first. It is truly frustrating though when you hear a really fantastic song that you know will never be on the radio and then you hear a run of the mill song on the radio. such is the biz. I wonder how much pirating killed this industry and the 99 cent songs. That's why I ain't quittin my daytime job anytime soon. I get enough of a rush just from someone saying hey that's a cool song or when a musician looks at my lyrics and wants to put music to it. If we can touch someone's heart or make them laugh then for most of us that's a job well done. Always look forward to the great and varied opinions from folks with a ton more experience than me. Take care,
Roger
