Hi,
My name is Michael Bishop and I am an ethnographer, a musicologist, and (for a few years now) a member of this board. I am wondering what the people on this board consider success to be. I admit that this is an academic inquiry, but I am also at a point in my own career when I could use the advice and wisdom that I have grown to expect from this community. I am only worried that by posting it here, in the songwriters forum, that I may skew a TOTAL perspective on the board as a whole. Do any of you have suggestions for where else I may able to post it without being being a pain in the ass or distracting from the current conversations? I am very intersted in the topic of perceptions of success not only as they relate to songwriting, but also to recording. I firmly believe that affordable technology has created a new avenue, a democritization (if you will) of audio recording that is unprecedented in music history, and I would like to hear how people are using this new medium to advance their own participation in "music" of any kind. Any advice or feedback would be more than welcome.
Thank you,
Michael
