MAB, getting my wife to go out is a whole nother story.
But, I do have another business question. Several of the writers here at our NSAI chapter just don't like, and just won't write, what is current country. It's hard to get them to understand that, "Times they are a changin'". So, They think, "Well, there are older artists that won't sing that crap either. Maybe I could get them to cut my songs." First, I don't think their songs would apeal to the older artists either, but, how do you get them to understand that? The problem with the NSAI evaluators (which by the way these guys don't even use. Don't understand. $150/year; I'M gonna use them!) is, it appears to me they are more in tune with current country and newer artists. So, is there anyone or organization in Nashville, open to wannabe's, that would provide a "traditional country/folk music" critique service? How do older artists even get their new material? Probably REALLY and "inside clique", right?
