Hi Gary, no not being rude at all thanks for your input... I value your
information... I was hoping to start at ground level.. not one
hundred percent yet... that comes with the big picture.. I am not
expecting anyone to put there trust and time in to this for free..

I hope as we do a little correspondence we can get to the point we
see the big picture and are making it work... all with the future in
mind... I am hoping It will be a good experience to take this from
the ground up... hope to see peoples interests other then my own...


Thanks for your reply

Doug

-> Don't get me wrong... I'm not being rude, but...

-> 1) You're not going to get much for free in this business.  You're almost
->    certain NOT to find anyone to "give there [sic] full attention" for
->    free.  I've been in the "music biz" (on a top-level professional level)
->    for about 23+ years, and I don't think I've *ever* ran into anyone worth
->    a damn that "did it for free".  Again, not being rude, just honest.

-> 2) You'd be better off running a small ad in a local paper, or perhaps some
->    local "music scene" paper there.  There's not many in this echo from 
->    Niagara Falls, so you're kinda wasting your breath.

-> 3) You should be more clear as to what you expect this person to do (for
->    free) for you and your career.  You're giving no information now other
->    than "I want you to do something, and do it for free", which really
->    isn't going to attract anyone, sorry to say.
