Do you play live?
Studio work only now while I am writing and producing new songs.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It allows my songs to be heard in the far corners of the globe and who knows...I may have a fan in Budapest, or New Jersey !!!!!!!!
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
I think I already did in a past life !!!!
