Got my first royalty check for two songs I wrote,[Whippoorwill Night and Memories of Dixie]The excellent bluegrass band EAST WIND included the two on their lastest CD,Named MEMORIES OF DIXIE.Had my eye on a Hummer,but after filling up my caravan to drive to the dealer did'nt have anything left,but the satisfaction of having my songs recorded by a GREAT band was ok.DYKBC. _________________ Hard headed, opinionated old geezer.

Must feel very cool, a check for TWO songs!
I guess your first check won't be your last.... _________________ Those that say don't know; those that know don't say.--Buddy Emmons |

Thanks guys,I appreciate that,I LOVE money,but I love the MUSIC more,Just having a very good band to like my writing enough to put two of my songs on their CD and naming the CD after one of them was rewarding enough.DYKBC. _________________ Hard headed, opinionated old geezer.
