Thanks for the call today. Good to talk live to a fellow musician. Sorry I didn't listen to the sample sooner.
You can play, thats for sure. As we discussed its a revolving landscape in the business these days. Playing well isn't enough or sometimes even needed. We hit the important points in our conversation.
I'm still frustrated but there have been a few rays of sunshine lately. My thoughts are as I expressed them to you. They wanna hear you sing and shake their butts. Everything else is secondary. Even NH with their chair dancers. I've even started using the Chord Sequencer with my BK9 so I can do some silly hand motions with a new song I'm learning. YMCA type thing. That will sell better than any hot solo I can rip off the keyboard.
Keep plugging and do it as long as you enjoy it.
