Title: Possible lead on Billy Walsh?
Post by: lfmusiclover on July 17, 2007, 12:47:33 PM
I was a doing some Google searching this morning, and found a site that seems like it may be that of (much sought after)TWC artist Billy Walsh. Here is the site:http://www.billywalshband.com/billy.html (http://www.billywalshband.com/billy.html). It would seem that this might be him since his instrument of choice is Guitar, and the Billy Walsh that played on TWC was also a guitarist. I only see one cd on the site though, and it doesn't include either of his TWC songs. What do you guys think? Maybe I should e-mail him and see if its him? The worst that can happen is that it could turn out that it isn't him.

I found a blog of a different Billy Walsh that seems to lead more to him. cause it has part of his BMI name, William T Walsh Jr.

But, i lost the link  >:(

Yah, that'd be great! I'll search for that blog later, because i know his name was very simmilar to his BMI name,and he is a guitarist.

Don't know if you noticed, but on the right side of the page is a link to his MySpace page.  8)

I don't think this is him though. This Guy's name is Timothy William Walsh, not Billy Walsh, or even William Walsh. The only way this is him is if he goes by his middle name and not his first.

Yes, but its all in his BMI name.

He could go by his middle name, thats what Eddie Reasoner does :yes:

No, that's not his BMI name. His BMI name is William T. Walsh. Not Timothy William Walsh.

Ugh. You even said he could go by his middle name.
Title: Re: Possible lead on Billy Walsh?
Post by: lfmusiclover on July 17, 2007, 01:57:22 PM
He could, but how likely is it that he's doing that?

A LOT of musicians go by their middle names.

Post by: lfmusiclover on July 17, 2007, 02:02:51 PM
Well TWC has him listed as Billy Walsh, so he isn't going by his middle name THERE!  :D

No, that's not an opinion. Its a fact.

Did you get a reply?
Title: Re: Possible lead on Billy Walsh?
Post by: lfmusiclover on July 27, 2007, 08:45:06 PM
Nope. I guess it either wasn't him or it was an outdated e-mail address.  :(
Title: Re: Possible lead on Billy Walsh?
Post by: G2003 on July 27, 2007, 08:46:02 PM
Most likely an outdated email address. that site hasnt been updated in a long time.
Title: Re: Possible lead on Billy Walsh?
Post by: lfmusiclover on July 27, 2007, 08:46:43 PM
Yeah I kinda got that feeling. It looks like it was made with Frontpage eeons ago.  :D
Title: Re: Possible lead on Billy Walsh?
Post by: G2003 on July 27, 2007, 08:47:15 PM
Yeah, i remember seeing that site 2 or 3 years ago and nothing has changed since, so i'd say its an outdated email address.
Title: Re: Possible lead on Billy Walsh?
Post by: lfmusiclover on July 27, 2007, 08:48:22 PM
Yeah. Oh well, I'll just have to keep plugging away at it. Maybe I'll track him down eventually. I managed to track Chad Edwards down at NASA, so with that thought in mind nothing is impossible.

Yeah, it can't be THAT hard. IIRC, if you contact BMI, they can give you contact info for an artist in their repertiore.
Title: Re: Possible lead on Billy Walsh?
Post by: lfmusiclover on July 27, 2007, 08:50:41 PM
I may try that. But I don't feel very confident about it. I can't see them giving an artist's contact info to any joe.

You are indeed corret. You can contact BMI for information on an artist. I read it there last night.

Well I'll give it a try then.  8)

Yah, its definitely worth a try B)

Get out of town, seriously?  I asked to contact C.F. Jones a while back and they basically blew me off :censored:
