  1. That was the most tactiful body slam I’ve ever witnessed in a podcasr Brent. Well done! ….Some people’s kids. – Lol!

    Ya know, the REAL value in your P4P and Frettie Know the Row events is just that, getting the education and then the FREE nugget of being able get face-to-face with these music industry professionals!

    REAL WORLD EXAMPLE: When I participated in your Know The Row with Byron Hill, I got TONS from the questions asked by others, Byron’s responses to them and your added input. But the REAL nugget for me personally was having you “rag on” my strange last name when I asked a question! That instantly broke the “normal mode” of the previous quick interactions, added a little comedy to the event, and I DOUBLE-DAWG guarantee helped Byron note and possibly remember my name. That was AWESOME! It was free advertising for a guy just trying to put his name and face on the songwriting map! I can’t thank you enough for that.

    So, these events ARE well worth the minimal money spent, to put a songwriter’s name and face in front of the industry professional. In my case, mine was free by being a Frettie member. It’s close, intimate and extremely educational! And who knows, maybe with a funky name like The Purple One Prince, a songwriter can begin to make their footprints seen and path to success!

    Keep up the good work!
