I saw this free on Amazon free this morning. It's really not a "how to", but more of a story about Dean Dillon and his career to this point. I've been a fan of his writing for years and thought the doc was put together well. It features several other writers/singers/producers commenting about his work. For those who don't know, he's had many big hits - mostly in the Country music genre. Many for George Straight and also others like Toby Keith, Kenny Chesney, George Jones, Justin Timberlake and others. It has a couple incidents of un-needed rough language, but other than that I really enjoyed it - for those who may be interested. Brad https://soundcloud.com/user-722422510/tracks

Stapleton's version is a hybrid of the song and his own jam on it. To give credit where credit is due.... Chris did put it in the #1 slot. Last edited by Guitarhacker; 12/10/22 05:04 AM. You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.com Add nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

What? You mean you'd 'rather go deaf' than listen to the umpteenth thousand stolen song stolen from another song? I'm just mad I failed to patent the G# note back in the day. I'd have collected plenty off all those vocals leading into A Major I. Help! I've fallen up and can't get down!

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
