Getting Record Label Attention

[Thrithwaite]

Legal Eagle? Are you a lawyer?

[typo]

In the current climate for labels - the ONLY guaranteed method is to stay focused on building your own audience and fan-base.

Then they'll be all over you with desperate greed and hunger.

Schmoozing gets people to know who you are.

But it's a market that makes 'em want you.

They don't really care how good you are or what you sound like - just how much money they can possibly make.

oops, meant to mention that . I completely agree, tho contacts and industry information are invaluable.

Legal Eagle? Are you a lawyer?

Nope - I have just had to read and understand a lot to find my way around and stay alive.

Took law as part of a degree option because I knew I was an ignoramus.

So I got a fundamental basis and found how to handle the library.

The rest is just keeping abreast of issues and cases.

Helps if you are interested and enjoy it, also.

The title 'Legal Eagle' was awarded anonymously by some mysterious SongStuff gremlin.

I have recently been trying to change it to the more appropriate and correct "grumpy miserable old git" but am not having any techno-luck.

Stop moaning you miserable old git!
