Todays music scene is all about MONEY & who you know....talent takes back seat.
Just look around you & open your ears.
Beach bum I too enjoy most of your work & give you props as I have posted replies a few times, but many times its better to just keep your opinions to yourself as to not start WW III....although I would love you be more diversified as it kind of gets repetitive sounding vocal wise if I'm being honest....other then that adding people playing other instruments to the styles is always a plus especially when you customize the styles makingthem Your Own... Slamming & Bragging people that make a great full time living playing Covers in the trenches for years will get you nowhere but more alienation.
Good Luck with your music.
