also, keep in mind that many a & r folks are recent 'music biz major graduates', very young and very inexperienced at picking hits...they are sometimes summer interns that got jobs, and taught to discard anything that doesn't sound like 'what's on the radio', and very few will stick their necks out believing in something off the wall in the name of job security. i can't say i really blame them, but that is why the genre is one of the slowest forms of music to grow..stuff today sounds much like stuff 5-10 years ago...there is an old music row joke that you may or may not have heard:AN A & R PERSON IS LISTENING TO A SONG WHEN HIS COLLEAGUE TAPS HIM ON THE SHOULDER AND ASKS IF THE SONG IS ANY GOOD. HE REPLIES.."I DON'T KNOW, I'M THE FIRST ONE WHO'S HEARD IT"thanks again to TAXI for being knowledgeable, professional and discriminating

I had two forwards to Nashville. One went to a publisher and the other to a major label but I never heard from either. Recently my skin has started to wear thin so I'm taking a break until some new inspiration comes along.
