Here's what I tell anyone and everyone that asks how to be successful in the music business:

The past doesn't matter. Enroll at Berklee or USC/UCLA/NYU Film school. Learn the business from the ground up. Live and work among the most talented people your age in this country. Develop relationships, co-write, learn from each other.

Then, move to Nashville or Los Angeles, live cheap, network and write, write, write, write, write.

Everyone has a PC or Mac and knows Cubase/Pro Tools/Logic inside out and has all the best plugins and software. It's not the gear, it's the talent.

Make it happen.
Dane I have no Ilusions I'm in my early 50's and out of luck. But my nephew is in his early20's and the world in front of him. And I have seen enough to know that this kid has potential. And that's not just being his Uncle talking. This kid is good. I'm talking Stevie Ray good!! But it does no good if there's no market for talent. If no one is interested what's the point?
