Your not strange. Your a teen. Similar, but different.

I've heard Chaquico countless times on the radio, at least, on my local radio station.

Then I envy you. The only stuff I've ever heard on the radio was the real mainstream stuff that I mentioned.

I heard Craig Chaquico and Hughes air on the Watercolors Xm channel.

DIfferent concept entirely. Satellite radio itself isn't exactly the definition of mainstream. I don't think Ms. Ricks would want to rely on satellite radio to launch her career.

Anything with such mainstream artists like Hughes and Chaquico seems big enough to me.

Hughes and Chaquico aren't mainstream. Boney James, Spyro Gyra, Dave Koz, Nick Colionne, those are mainstream. IMO, your not mainstream if one can't turn on their jazz station and hear you play. I never once heard Hughes or Chaquico play on the radio.

IMO Ike is the only storm so far that qualifies for retirement.

Sorry for the double post But Jeanne have you tried Higher Octave Music?
http://www.higheroctave.com/

That might help. They started out as an independent record label and have signed deals for jazz artists like 3rd Force, Brian Hughes and Craig Chaquico. They might help just giving a suggestion

Not a bad idea, but Higher Octave might not be as mainstream as Jeanne is wanting. 

But it's certainly a good start.

I don't think Jeanne's looking for a start. Seems like she's looking to dive right in.

Thanks, Gil.

OK Gary, I guess I'll share nothing here from now on, if that will make you happy.

That dunce cap smiley was very fitting Tyler, I'll just say that.

Thanks for believing me, Mike. 

Gary, Kyle, we all know I do occasionally talk to a few select folks at the STAR Team. They are my information source. So if you're calling me a liar, you're essentially calling them liars too, neither of which I appreciate. I'll say nothing more, because obviously my contributions to this thread aren't welcome.

What do you mean by "timing errors" Tyler? Do you mean they weren't appearing during the right time - during the BWTL promo that everyone else sees before an OCM segment?

Yes, during the BWTL promos. The Weatherscan spot would either end the local early, have the Weatherscan spot play with local music behind it, and then viewers would see the end of the BWTL spot; OR it would start late, causing the spot to continue late over national programming.

I believe you.

Who cares if/what sources, insider info is better than no info. 

Like my NBC buying TWC info, which NO ONE believed. And look what happened. 

Its not that I didn't believe it. As I told you then, I can't deal in speculation. When you guys have to make a big secret out of your source and can't give any details on how you got the info I can't give you any credit! Its difficult to give credit for info that can't be verified! That's why I wait until a public source releases the info. That wayI KNOW I'm not playing the speculation game.

Due to the fact Hurricane Ike came to my area, The Gas Prices risen from 3.29 to 3.79 

Hurricane Ike came to Minnesota? 

First I've heard of it going there.

At school today, my math teacher actually said "let's jump right in there" during class today. Of course, it's not exactly the same as "DIVING" right in there, but I suppose it's close enough.

She's also said some various "let's do that" phrases in the past few weeks as well. Coincidence?

Sounds like your teacher might be a TWC viewer.

But, I did go into details, several of them. You're just trying to find things to blame on me...

You went into no detail whatsoever about HOW you knew what you knew. Mike defended you by saying that he couldn't say how you knew either. Telling us something does no good if you can't ell us how you know it. And telling us things like "I'd rather not say" or "I have confidential sources" doesn't benefit anyone here in the least.

Let's not go into playing the sob game. Oh your a big meanie. Oh your just trying to find something to blame me for. I thought we were above that.

Alright, you and I have been through this before, and I'm not going through it again. They are satisfied at TWCC, and don't have a need to branch out elsewhere. It's that simple. And if you want to act jealous and childish, well I can't help you.

No Tyler, I'm not acting jealous and childish. You seem to think you have to come here each day and flaunt your insider secrets (or rather perhaps the fact that you have them). They do have a need to branch out. To reach a segment of viewers GEARED DIRECTLY AT THEM.

If you want to share details with us, and not just the fact that your priveleged, that's different. But quit coming here and pronouncing to us all how you have sources and you can't go into details.

It's not that your contributions aren't welcome, its your know everything attitude that isn't welcome. I run the show here, yet I keep getting overshadowed by the guy form the other forum who has inside sources that I can't get. It would be fabulous if I could find a source of insider information. I run a current TWC forum for the love of God. I should be the second most informed person here. But for some reaosn the dopes at TWC think a classic TWC board is serving their purposes. If it is great. But wouldn't a current TWC board serve them too? If not better?

It's all greek to me, I swear.
