Yeah, that must come to quite a shock to you all. I have stated that I don't claim to be smart. I don't claim to be stupid either. It takes me awhile to figure out some things that may seem obvious to others. I guess you may be wondering what it is that I figured out.
I figured out that people on BBs, with few exceptions, do not want to discuss difficult topics, like music business details, politics &/or religion. The last two can cause a lot of hostility. The music business stuff can be boring and complicated which requires actual knowledge and study.
Many people feel that most music business doesn't concern them or that if they ever got to a point where it did then Attorneys &/or Managers will take care of all that.
Oh, wait, I wrote an article about that.
You can find it here.

To be more accurate -
Many people feel that most music business doesn't concern them because they're a long way away from commercial recognition, and if they ever got to a point where it did then they would read up and take care of business if and when they had to.

That's a fair point. And yes, maybe musicians *should* prepare properly in the unlikely event they get signed. But people have all sorts of priorities and time limitations. Some are lazy. That's the way it is.

Schmoozing - that's what I do on bbs.
Along with a healthy dose of nonsense.
It's Fun.!!!!!
I take care of most of my real business in the real world.
Do a pretty good job of it, too.
But hey, that's just me.... - different strokes for different folks.....
