I do alright . Last 2 songs Nashville publishers loved them , But does not fit what pretty boy Nashville boys are doing . So the plan is sync to pitch now. Will see what happens. Nashville publishers are real picky , they know what makes them money or not , or have good handle on it , that's why they're in biz .

And you? That was explained... Gods Cadillac and Extinct. We pitched . it's still the same old problem absorbing costs on recording and hoping for a cut. You can bitch and moan all day , it's the game .
Well or waste my time why USA everybody thinks they're Daniel Boone and gun happy , its not changing NRA is to powerful , So more shootings , the new norm .
Meanwhile, A 15y/o girl with a 9mm at a "private christian school" is barely newsworthy...
I wonder why MSM is burying THAT story?
Yeah, but it's all tied together, our youth are some of the most mean spirited, , entitled, pieces of garbage there is.
I take that back I know some good kids who just wanna drink and get laid, which is preferable.
But look at YouTube, tik Tok, Facebook, the fuckin hating kids are all over it

An action without words By a girl no one heard To highlight the psycho circus

I'm screaming as I type For meaning in my life But the world is going deaf

Mr. Mangione, who is a 26-year-old graduate of the University of Pennsylvania, is accused of slaying the chief executive of UnitedHealthCare, Brian Thompson. The killing took place at dawn on December 5, outside a hotel at Midtown Manhattan. In some quarters, Mr. Mangione is seen as something of an avenger against a healthcare system deemed predatory.
He's being called a folk hero
New York Times
I think just what I said , people are sick of the health care system
According to you , we can't seem to have a grown up conversation . Thats alright you have your take on things , I have mine . I think if a politician stood up and quoted scripture. The people with dead kids might say , that's nice , but have you got any real solutions .
China has one of the lowest rates of gun violence in the world: Gun-related deaths: China has a very low number of gun-related deaths each year. Overall crime rate: China has a low overall crime rate. In 2023, the number of serious violent criminal cases decreased 10.7% compared to 2019. United States were gun happy .
I think we can learn a lot from a country 5000-years old
True, which is how and why they are openly a slave labor economy. If the slaves all had guns, I doubt many of them would still be slaves, and there certainly would be opposition with the ability to take out the slave masters in each slaves hands.

Yeah a folk hero who stalks a man and shoots him cold blooded in the back,
Then runs away trying to allude law enforcement.
If he's such a hero why didn't he turn himself in and plead guilty... BULLSHIT

Maybe, but then every company owner who hires people to work for peanuts would be dead if they all had a gun
Every doctor who didn't cure a patient would be dead
Slavery was a dark time in our history, and you're right, things would have ended differently

And we still gotta pay medical bills. Yup , it won't change .13k to go to emergency. My bookkeeper was bitching about health care prices. 4k for a root canal problem , out of pocket
But the whole system is broken, killing a guy with my change that, Naw like you said body guards for CEO's. Lucky I'm a vet , they're not bad.. over worked maybe

It's dangerous for anyone to walk in New York, lol let's face it.
It's surprising to me to see this guy do that. Yep that parts gonna change.
There's gonna be copy cats, another reason these idiots applauding are going to make it worse
I used to think the 2nd amendment was too protectionist of gun rights, and the laws did not evolve with the firepower being generated by today's guns.
But my mind was changed by Marty who said the only reason he owns a gun is to protect himself from others(idiots) who have them.
As horrific as that sounded to me, it was the best and most appropriate argument I have heard that supports gun ownership rights.
Does not make it right or good in my books, but it is definitely understandable and as such I'm on side for that reason.
Not that it needs my approval
Well firstly we don't get any practice for an emergency attack it will happen when your gun is in your closet and of no use to you if somebody attacks you.
If you have never fired a gun, probably won't help you much...
Secondly it's not guns. This kid coulda stabbed the CEO or macheted him. Or run him over with a car.
Guns can make a bad situation worse, but seldom are the cause of the problem
FOX doesn't lie by omission... It reports from a highly biased Conservative perspective that I understand and appreciate
Fox only reports what you want to hear Tony. That is called propaganda: ideas or allegations spread deliberately to further one's cause or to damage an opposing cause.
In many European countries Fox doesn't have the permission to broadcast. They are not viewed as news. Countries like Germany have gone through this stuff some 80 years ago. They know better.

Kid Rock sure sounded great at the "VICTORY RALLY"
You're right... I'm 2hrs from Nashville but can't afford the gas
Tony, I love your quote here. I read it over and over again. That is one of the best hook lines I've seen in a while. If you don't believe me, listen to this:
Update: I wasn't aware of the fact that the hook line that I used was actually the hook line and title of a song Tony had written 15 years ago. His original song is too close to what i came up with. I had never heard his song before but the lyrics and the melodies are very similar. I apologize. It wasn't my intention to make a close copy of Tony's song. Therefore, I'm taking this one off the board.
Two Hours From Nashville
[Verse] Got a six-string in the backseat, an old amp in the trunk This beat-up car is my chariot, though it smells like sweat and junk I’ve been playing dive bars for quarters, dreaming ‘bout the Opry stage Tonight, it’s another smokey room where the tips don’t match the wage
[Pre-chorus] The radio plays a country tune, and I sing along in my head A little voice says, “Keep driving,” but my wallet says, “Stay instead”
[Chorus] I’m two hours from Nashville and can’t afford the gas A tank full of dreams but the money’s running out fast I’ve got the heart, I’ve got the songs, but the road’s too long to pass I’m two hours from Nashville and can’t afford the gas
[Verse] Every mile marker feels like a tease, so close yet so far A skyline of promises that’s just out of reach for this guitar I’ve written songs about heartache, and now I’m living one tonight ‘Cause the only thing between me and my dream is a needle stuck on “E” light
[Pre-chorus] The radio plays a country tune, and I sing along in my head A little voice says, “Keep driving,” but my wallet says, “Stay instead”
[Chorus] I’m two hours from Nashville and can’t afford the gas A tank full of dreams but the money’s running out fast I’ve got the heart, I’ve got the songs, but the road’s too long to pass I’m two hours from Nashville and can’t afford the gas
[Bridge] Someday I’ll make it, I’ll play those hallowed halls The crowd will sing along to my story, the rise after the falls Tonight I’ll strum my guitar, in a nowhere-town café Knowing every note I play is one step closer to that day
[Chorus] I’m two hours from Nashville and can’t afford the gas A tank full of dreams but the money’s running out fast I’ve got the heart, I’ve got the songs, but the road’s too long to pass I’m two hours from Nashville and can’t afford the gas
[Outro] So I’ll sing to the stars and the moonlight on this highway Hoping they’ll guide me, or at least keep the doubt at bay I’m two hours from Nashville, but it’s not the end of my path ‘Cause someday I’ll make it—who needs gas when you’ve got the last laugh? I’m two hours from Nashville and can’t afford the gas
My 6-string's ridin' shotgun and wearing my old hat This beat up old truck has been to Hell-n-Back Been playin' local bars, dreamin'bout the Opry If home is where your love is, may the good Lord forgive me
Every street sign tells me what direction I should choose My heart says “Keep on goin'" but my rent is past due
I’m two hours from Nashville but can’t afford the gas My tank is full of dreams but my money’s burnin' fast I sing songs about life, truth, and love that never lasts I’m two hours from Nashville but can’t afford the gas
I play for wings and beer 'caue I can't afford groceries The money I make barely pays for guitar strings The ladies like to dance but dismiss me with a laugh Died alone and broke will be my epitaph
They say I'm hopeless but love to hear me sing I swear this stop sign is mocking me
[Chorus] [Bridge] Someday I’ll show'em, I’ll play those hallowed halls That manager at Walmart won't be laughing at all
[Chorus] [Outro] The new girl they hired to be a greeter Maybe she can be my backup singer...

ON FOX!
BTW... Nothing says "Not Guilty" like a Biden Presidential "Preemptive" Pardon! LMFAO

I agree. Giving a President the power to pardon people is so stupid. Things like that are not possible in many other countries. Politicians in other countries are also not allowed to be invested in the stock market or issue their own cryptocurrencies. There's a reason for that.
I’m happy for you that watching Fox News makes you feel good. You might have to watch it more often during the next 4 years. It will be interesting to see who they will blame if inflation rises again. Biden? Not sure. Probably Musk. Just like 8 years ago, Trump has a long list of people he can fire. We’ll see what happens.
Just one step closer to a global bank and monetary system...
NOT a fan.
Stop using this thread for a rant section.

Hey Tony, I’m surely missing something. I learned that the rioters on Jan 6 were not Trump supporters. They were antifa disguised as Trump supporters. Fox and other so-called news channels reported that and Trump posted that too. Accordingly, in 2022 most of the Republicans believed the riot was led by violent left-wing protesters. The rioters went to court and some were found guilty, some even pleaded guilty. So, the left-wing protesters were locked up. Trumps apparently doesn’t like that and now pardons all of them? I’m confused. To me, that doesn't make much sense. They are left. They broke the law and were convicted. Why does he pardon them? All of them.

Nothing says "Not Guilty" like a Biden Presidential "Preemptive" Pardon... FOR HIS WHOLE FAMILY!
Be patient, Rob. There's a LOT of moving parts at the moment.
Hi Tony, your response didn’t help me much to understand why Trump just pardoned over 1000 left-wing terrorists. Of course, it makes sense if they are all Trump supporters and not left-wingers. They were all convicted (by Democrats AND Republicans).
You’re right, there are A LOT of moving parts at the moment.
I was wondering why all of a sudden Trump shows such a big interest in Panama. In German television they say the reason is because Trump owns a big hotel there and in 2019 his organization was charged with tax evasion and they failed to report employee salaries to Panama’s social security agency. The litigation is still before the courts. So now Trump is using his power as the American President to solve his legal issues in Panama. It has nothing to do with the Panama Canal and the costs for American ships. Once again, he’s lying to the American people, just like with the Jan 4 left-wing rioters. Fox News probably won’t tell you what is really going on in Panama. Like many Americans, you probably don't care, right?

No. I DON'T care.
We've already endured 8yrs of blatant political lawfare... Lawfare that NOBODY would ever hear about if Trump wasn't president.
