Rand,

Every morning before leaving for work I check in on JPF. This morning I was really surprised, and pleased, to see this post from you. I have been an admirer of your writing for a long time.

I agree 100% with everything you are saying here. I'm afraid however that I fall into the catagory of pretty much relying on a songplugger. I work with Dallas Gregory of Song Rocket Music in Nashville. Dallas is a great guy, but like you said, it's the personal connections you make that really make things happen. Always have and always will, and that is true of everything in life.

Thanks for posting, and I hope to be able to read more posts occassionally from you. I will be sure and check out your website.

Best,
Marvin Adcock
