Deserve’s got nothing to do with it
“Vanity is my favorite sin.” Al Pacino … A timely blog post by Jame DiBiasio, which he kindly allows for reblogging. Timely in that I’ll soon be published by the renowned Frog in the Mirror Press, a Big 666 Publisher if ever there was one …

Interesting, Kevin. There is some similarity in the music business. As you know, I am a self produced/released independent musician (your wife, Ratree graciously allowed me to use a photograph she took for the back cover of my “vanity” CD). I am now at 55% towards recovering my costs of recording, graphics, and duplication of my first album. Eventually I’ll get it all back. I have found having an album released lends itself towards legitimacy in getting better gigs. Would I like to have a small record label sign me up and promote me? Sure. There just are not that many small record labels around any more. Congratulations on your publishing deal!
Thanks, Patrick. And, of course, the title for my follow-up post, “Hell, I Can Do That, came from that great Country and Western singer Trace Atkins … I watched the YouTube video this mornin’ for inspiration 🙂
