Ok, I don't personally know like but I do know a few professional musicians/artists. I would never ask one of them to help me get somewhere. For one thing, I like my friends and I doubt they like being used any more than I do. For another, one of my friends is a singer, good voice, she listens to anything I send her but I don't expect her to cut it, I just expect her to be honest. I listen to her songs and am honest. It's how if should work. She's been interested in a couple of my songs but they weren't right for her current project. I don't have a problem with that because she is my friend and I'd rather have an honest opinion than a cut. Besides all of that, it can cause I'll feelings if her vision were to differ from mine. She's written songs with pro writers, does regularly. I would never ask her to take mine to one of her writing sessions either.
As for those on here being useful in furthering our (the peons) careers, who says any of them have to. It's not their jobs to mdke sure we are successful. Ugh!!! Such drama lately! Ive got Midol if anyone admits they need it. See this is a slanted response too. I agree with you, nobody has to do anything for anybody, or most likely cant. If somebody disagres with an article posted, why is it combated? Regardless of who is wrong and right, its not going to change our songwriting fortunes. I dont see how the article helps anyone. theres a guy on another site who posts stuff all day and night, if you agree with it then he goes along and takes credit for posting it, if you disagree then he pulls back and claims he justs posts the articles randomly. There is a certain level of BS and assertion that goes along with posting articles off the net as if you wrote it. I agree Midol time.

"Do not endeavor to be the smartest kid in a dumb class. Instead, you are better off being the dumbest kid in the smartest class, where you will be challenged and you will learn. If you aren't growing, you are dying." -Brian Austin Whitney
