Well, there was one person in particular who did step on the toes of the Nashville establishment and came out a winner, and theat was Waylon Jennings, who bucked the system and fought for creative control over his music. But he lived long enough to see the trend reversed, and the maverick heyday was over around the time Reagan became president, and control reverted to the bigwigs. I know this just from what I've heard, but it pretty much became the same in every industry. You have corporate conglomerates having become more powerful everywhere. Where is the next Waylon?

"If someone is truly a jerk, or truly is not deserving of any positive reply from you, polite indifference is the best response you can give. Do not insult. Do not slam. Do not follow the urge to be nasty. Simply be politely indifferent." –Brian Austin Whitney
