As a somewhat educated and interested observer I'm simply commenting on what I see as the reality of the situation similar to JJJ's comments. I spent 6 years on the road booked by a big national agency. Then I was a sub-agent for another big agency. I knew a lot about the business from an agency pov, auditioning bands, contracts, riders, class A rooms and all that good stuff.
Of course all that experience is over 40 years old. I've tried to keep up on things but not being directly involved any more it's not easy. And even if I was involved the whole digital revolution caught a whole bunch of those people completely by surprise anyway and I would have been one of them.
I completely support what you're doing Roger but I fear what it finally amounts to is rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. You're the one on the ground, maybe you have reason to be more optimistic than I am?
