I'm getting My FIRST CHECK
Oh how I have been dreaming of this day, when I could post something(from my perspective) as a SUCCESS story. (other than all the awesome knowledge I've become privy to). I've made about 140 submissions since joining almost a year ago, 30 forwards, one signed deal that has resulted in this...Got a call from someone today to tell me one of my tunes is gonna be in an ABC show. I don't know how many details I'm allowed to post. But this is my first $$ coming to me, for my music, as a result of Taxi.Ecstatic, barely describes how both my wife and I feel!the tune is I Found Myself, on my Broadjam site, if you wanna check it out.and this is my 1001st post, hope you're all not too tired of me yet!

Re: I'm getting My FIRST CHECK
thx Martin, Jack, Nita & John, today is a good day to be me. I'm celebrating, in fine Canuck style. Remember this post? This is how I feel. This is my favorite post, on this forum.Quote:Pardon me for a moment while I put on my newbie happy shoes...Who got 2 forwards for this listing? That's right! That's right! Raise your hands up. It's your birthday! Got the forward. Got the forward. That's right. Uh Uh....CanonMarble HallsA wide variety of great-sounding versions of famous PUBLIC DOMAIN CLASSICAL PIECES are sought by an established Music Library/Publisher that has worked with TAXI for years. They exclusively supply songs/tracks to numerous Cable TV shows - mostly cooking and travel shows - and need new versions of well-known Classical instrumentals to meet their clients' needs. Great performances are essential. This company typically offers exclusive deals. Your songs must be Broadcast Quality (excellent sounding home recordings are OK).

thx MsV, Quote:whoo hooo - (You are coming, aren't you? To the big Party?) but I'm very sorry, and a quite bummed, about not being there with y'all because meeting so many of you would be kinda like a high school reunion, with no baggage(ok, just a little). Hopefully next year.

Definitely get the Tivo/DVD recorder fired up. Man, if you're STARTING with an ABC show, that's a heck of a beginning. Congratulations.
