In Music, Songwriting and Networking, Its been an Amazing year, i have been very blessed, today is December 23rd, looking back, i have so many awsome things to be thankfull for, i have finished much of the songwriting, some few dozen songs, that i had laying around, i have been co-writing with other Songwriters, and have written some realy cool songs, as a result. I have been very lucky to have met some very smart, talented co-writers. I have pushed myself harder and further than ever and gotten out of my shell numerous times (lol) , I have accomplished a huge portion of my Songwriting goals for this year Heard some cool music and did some Networking,,Many of these goals were accomplished, due in a large part , to getting to know Marc-Alan Barnette" MAB", who apart from being an Amazing Songwriter, Killer Singer,& live Music perfomer and Seasoned Nashville Demo recording Talent, IS The best Songwriter's friend ,Bank of Knowledge about Nashville Music, and Songwriting coach, you could ever hope to learn from and meet,Thanks MAB http://www.marcalanbarnette.com/marcalan.html
