Pat has often said that I spend far too long on the 'Forum' I've just figured that with 2843 posts probably taking 2-3 minutes to compose (Because I'm a bit dumb) That figure COULD represent actual studio playing time of 47 three hour sessions, in my part of the world, worth to me $275 per session = $13,030.00 approx. If I was to stay with standard rates, but I usually get double that because I can probably complete 8-12 tracks in that time period, and invariably do. On average maybe 10-15 minutes a tune would be 'Par for the Course'. So, for the moment I'm going back to my guitar and following Pat's advice I think the last straw was probably the reference to being a quote: I don't know many 'weekend Warriors' that have raised as much for charity as Bob Brolley and myself have over the past four years. Close to $500,000, that's why Bob got the royal honour of MBE, as his MD I'm just a back-room boy, but as you can see below, not so much in the background (The concert at the Birmingham Symphony Hall this year raised over $100,000)

Great decision, Basil. After all, your catalogue is your pension. I am proud to know you as a pro. And thank you so much for all your inputs and advice. We'll be in touch outside this forum. ![]() ------------------ |
