Jim--you're giving me a really unmanageable ego :-)

So, all of these blogs are aimed at educating young and old performers on how it works. It's a business, and a relationship business, at that. It's really rare for a person to do well in music if they don't develop a certain amount of "salesmanship." And networking/relationship maintenance is a very important component, in my humble opinion.

Thanks for all your encouragement! Between all the different posting/hosting locations, I'm getting a few hundred views a night on this v-log. It's all good!
