[Fmpro] California Dreamin

[Chris Alpiar]

Just contribute a few ideas les. No need to be a sour pickle. I really don't
understand why you are so against an attempt at change? Im sure it has been
tried in the past, but never in an age with the power of communication on
our side. With the failures of the past come new founded knowledge. It's a
new time, a time to reopen old ideas and make them fresh and give new energy
to create what we want and what we deserve. With the trends of downloads and
viral fame, the record industry is going to collapse and be remade into
something completely new and the PROs as well, and my goal is for when this
happens to have our people thinking and making goals for our issues that we
are ready when that opportunity comes. Think and grow rich.

Guys,

1] Don't you think this has been tried over MANY decades.
2] Don't you think the A list has been invited to act.

With respect............  The PRO's look out for their own,  
songwriters, then the A list.
