I did not tell anyone to shut up and listen.

Shut your Mouth and Listen is what I was told in the first few weeks I arrived in Nashville and it still holds true today. I would include it on any list of what not to do.

The article is about what not to do in Nashville and I can guarantee you a big mouth that thinks he/she knows everything about the music business will get them absolutely no where in Nashville except the back of the line.

When being critiqued or in a pitch session opening your mouth is about the quickest way for your song to end up in the round file.
If you don't believe it take a trip to Nashville and try it.


No the fact is, I didnt agree with the article, said so, and had to fight off the masses.

Is it at all possible that the article is pointless and useless?

Not saying its not nice to post to try and be helpful, but do I have to agree with it?

you wrote...

"The only other advice I think missing is keep your mouth shut and LISTEN."

soo, WHO do I listen to? You? thats the jist of the argument.

Anyway, done with this yawnnn.
