I will not make a habit of doing anymore ! I can tell you that . It might help me get a show I want to do for History Channel . It's a documentary on music. It can open doors to different venues. I was a game show host, rocker,on Broadway, film, TV, never been a one trick pony. I like the experience of doing different things. Everyone one of those things have lead to the opening of another door. One Big door Jim, another rocky Horror and the list goes on. You just don't know. You meet different people with different backgrounds, exchange ideas, but most of all you go into something like that to open up yourself to learn new things. That is the point of life, to Learn. Yes, most people think that a show like that will change their life. Most do come for the exposure . Looking to get a faded light to shine again. it won't do that for them. I don't need that so I didn't do it for that. I didn't come wearing that suit so it changes the game a bit. Do you understand? A singer named Trace Atkins had #1 album and a #1 single from that show. I do not think that will happen for me , I'm not that stupid. I learned things I didn't even know I knew on that show. So that was worth it. I'm on TV big deal !! I did Pop/Opera so I could get a head start on Promo for HCTB in europe. I went do a different country every week that was on the air. I always do things for a reason other than what it appears to be, again , do you understand? Method to the madness . M M M |

That surprises me given your apparent familiarity with my style and phraseology

HCTB was never mentioned on Popstar to Operastar and you performed an old song - it was a good, funny performance though. You worked hard, traveled around the world, there were countless interviews but who got to hear the songs? Only a few people, mostly journalists and a handful of lucky fans, some of them didn't even care like that journalist who said her life was too busy to listen to albums. Did you reach the people? Those who would appreciate the album? Europe didn't get a live performance of a HCTB song when the album was released. I remember a single interview (with Ultimate Guitar, as far as I remember) in which you extensively talked about the music - that was interesting and fun to read and caught my attention more than the repetitive references to Patrick and Rob Cavallo's merits. People have to hear the music. It's more the song and / or the way it's performed that attracts people than promo talk. When it comes to promoting HCTB, I missed the singer Meat Loaf. Sorry if this appears a bit sassy but that's how I feel about it. Last edited by Sarge; 15 Jan 2011 at 15:42. Reason: grammar |

Who cares about reviews? Who reads music magazines from cover to cover these days? I don't (anymore). "You can't get the sound from a story in a magazine", Billy Joel used to sing. I didn't become a Meat Loaf fan because someone wrote about how awesome he was - I had to see and hear him.

You don't think that perhaps a groundswell of excellent reviews can help an album get the support it needs in terms of being played? Los Angeloser made the BBC playlist for 3 weeks, and that wasn't surely down to massive sales figures. I'd think that people who get newspapers and magazines would notice reviews, and whilst I'm not sying all will be persuaded and committed to buying an album with a good review, I think the converse may be the case and that reviews which are not positive and enthusiastic could tend to put off the less fervent fans.
However, this is rather off-topic, and Meat has explained why he chose to appear on Celebrity Apprentice. Caryl |

Although some of it off topic I know, I agree with most things Sarge has posted here. I don't think it's sassy at all. I want to hear music and not read about it.
