Especially here on the Tipsheet board (Your Views have been packed with threads from Saddam's hanging to Martin's wedding)...

Has Music become a JOB, only for workdays?

Thank God for people like Alex at Designer Magazine and those others who love music 24/7 and want to spread the word morning, noon and night.

You're very welcome here!

That's how we stumbled upon ORSON a year or so ago.
After hours of trawling through old posts and ancient tips!

I just had lunch with Rob Harding, he has grown a beard, I rather suspect this is the "facially haired moody pop star " phase.
Only joking , there is a reason behind this which will become apparent, when you hear this cracker of a new song sitting in front of me.

There were 430 visitors on this site at 3pm and 17 posts to put up after my meeting!

I apologise, as PJ Proby once sang magnificently.

Yes, I think you will find a lot of people like myself ,are having planning meetings this time of year.

Glad to see the board picked up again guys....and thanks for the props

Alex

I'm still out here. The only reason I've gone quiet is simply because I'm working so hard on a very talented singer who is young, different and exciting. I am seeing too many sound alikes and average bands/acts to the point of being bored. And I am bored with my old catalogue and my old way of working.

I believe that to do something over the next couple of years it must be very different and exceptionally good.

So "Big End" is busy reinventing himself both in terms of writing and production. I just consider myself very lucky to have the right act to do that with.

Hi Big End.
It`s very noisy down here, I`ve been a very foul mouthed geezer in the local press about the download situation, which I`m sure you would have been pleased to read about, "the death of the cd single", when the link comes up I will post it.
Mucho writing, mucho hype indeedy!
Also a live broadcast coming up on the web next week, which I will send all you guys the link to, just before it happens.
The board is rockin` as allways, but, many reading , not enough contributing.
Everybody on here loves thoughts, meanderings and tips.

way to go Martin and looking forward to hearing the stuff.
