[Strategies For Submissions To Music Publishers]

Damn.

I was fishing for another helpful blog-post from you.

[Strategies For Submissions To Music Publishers]

"Now you’ve gotten the green light to submit some music to a music publisher"

How about another blog entry on how to go about getting that green light, Jim?

[About That Suicide (&c.)...]

And sadly all, I found, quite factual.

Coverage on-line at the Oregonian allows 'comments' to be made.

These are Greek chorus to the tragedy.

Poignant and utterly pointless.

Signs from alien life-forms.

[About That Suicide (&c.)...]

Oh my goodness gracious.

Seems like the victim/perpetrator was one Kipp Rusty Walker, and the incident took place at the Strictly Organic Coffee Company before an audience of 15 people.

There is either more or less to this than meets the eye.

[About That Suicide (&c.)...]

Sounds like a fabulous story, Joe.

Can you help me track its source?

Quick Googlage revealed reports by your good self and nothing else.

Please don't let this be labelled urban myth.

[Woooo]

Look out, Adam.

I mean it - seriously - look out!!

These guys are notorious

They send that same letter to everyone hoping that the'll be stupid and blind and uncritical enough to believe them.

It's a business model for them, that's all.

DON"T DO IT!!

[Donna Dahl Joins Songstuff Writers]

Yay D.D.!!

[Bay City Post-Mortem (And Sept. 25 Setlist)...]

Oh that's nice that you've kept our song in the book.

Thanks Joe.

[Smiling Upon Entrance!]

Yay

Yowzer

[A New Adventure...]

Great news, Joe.

Congratulations !

Now you can not only keep the wolf from the door for a while, but toss the brute an occasional steak too.

[10 Minutes...]

"But is it worth it to do it for just ten minutes? "

I would think not.

It smacks of poor ill-informed organisation and seems well worth steering clear of.

If you're working the stage and P.A. already and having to deal with unrealistic turn-arounds and set-up times it hardly seems worthwhile attempting performance yourself under such shabby circumstances.

Garibaldi wouldn't have stood for it.

Good luck.

You'll need it.

[Curmudgeonly Thoughts About The Music Business...]

I just looked up the word curmudgeon in my dictionary.

It said simply, "Van Morrison".

(Is that what we call 'high definition'?)

[A Volunteer Gig...]

I think you should drag out something from your dust-bearing back catalogue and re-christen it:

"Please Re-Release Me"

[Ash Wednesday...]

“Can I Have Your Car When the Rapture Comes?”

Beautiful title.

Beautiful concept.

Yeah !!

[Peaceful (and Update)]

"Lazz I cannot remember for certain, but I wanto say Bill Evans' drummer's kit at one time"

Hey - which one ?

Was it Joe LaBarbera ?

The first trio and the last trio were the best for me.

Scott LaFaro aqnd Paul Motian in the first; Marc Johnson and Joe LaBarbera in the last.

I see Joe maybe once a year as he passes through.

If it was he, I can tell him you've been beating them and making a noise.

[Testing]

Nope.

Didn't work, Donna.

I couldn't read it at all.

love
