I agree with everything Dan said, only because a lot of people ask for criticsm and then get offended if the crit wasn't exactly what they wanted to hear. Unfortunate, but true.

I'd like to add some:

JPF truly IS like one big family! smile

I have friends here who are closer to me than some of my friends who are local.

I have grown as a musician and songwriter by paying attention to the multitude of styles displayed on this site.

Some people here should have definitely made it in the music business in a very big way *cough* Mark Kaufman *cough*

Brian is the most energetic and passionate man about music and independent artists that I ever met.

A song is successful in its own rite if it has the ability to "move you".

Never be afraid to express any idea...even if it's crappy. It's out of the crap that a beautiful idea grows and becomes a great song.

Most importantly, as our "Big Daddy" says, "We're all in this together!" Help eachother, learn from eachother, work together, pay it forward. smile
