Thanks Ray.....You know there is a story about it raining for forty days and nights and a man called Noah had to build a boat to save everyone......HUGH just a typical Scottish summer. I have no aspirations to write a hit although hearing the crap in the charts it would be no big deal....now getting it in front of the bloodsuckers who decide what the next hit will be is another matter.
I am in a showcase next month where the top Scottish acts perform in front of an invited audience of agents and bookers. A years diary depends on that one spot and an acts ability to impress.....there are some great acts performing.....I bet some of those so called stars in the charts both yours and mine who earn millions would not get any bookings or last five minutes in the business from what I have heard of their performances especially the live ones....even on a bad day most of our showcase acts would struggle to put on such a bad performance. No I am not bitter just truthful.
Now when it comes to mediocrity I think both of us can make a pretty astute judgment......sadly there would appear to be those who cannot.....some are regulars on this forum and others are the suits who cannot spot talent if it bit them on the ass and persist in feeding us the crap we have become accustomed to.
