Let's leave aside Nashville's Marc, Blazetrack's Ron and their wonderfully informative(I mean that sincerely)discussions of various services and networking.
Let's leave aside the $20 bill bribe, or the naked singing telegram chick delivering your song to an artist's door.
Is there a modern day equivalent of Kristofferson landing a helicopter in Johnny Cash's back yard?
I have 1 song that would be perfect for artist "A", and another 1 song that would be perfect for artist "B"...If anyone needs some lining for the bottom of their bird cages, I've got dozens more that would suit your needs perfectly.
Neither artist "A" nor "B" have had a hit in ages, but they are both very well known and play to packed houses.
So, trying to think creatively, and on a budget, here's what I've come up with:
I will join these Artist's Websites and their Fan Clubs. I will gently make a few entries into their forums and do some mild cyber-networking/relationship building. I will, eventually, post a link to the two songs and state that I was inspired by the Artists and that the songs are sort of a tribute, and ask what people think.
I will NOT nag, beg, plead for someone to get in touch with the artist for me...I will simply place the songs out there, amongst the Artist's fans, and let Karma do the rest...And in the meantime, I'll continue to write screenplays, because that's what I do these days:-)
Silly me, I know. But I don't have a helicopter license.
