No More War Songs?
It seems here in Nashville, the word on the street from all of the publishers is, "No more war songs". The company line seems to be, " ...we don't want to seem as though we are capitalizing off of the pain of our soldiers" (paraphrased)
I'm of the ilk that believes that this is a bunch of crap! What if the record industry had that sort of colusive brick wall in the 1960's? - It's time for songs that take the high ground. Songs that hold Christians and Muslims to their core moral values. Time for songs of humble healing. We don't need anymore "Boot in the ass" tunes for sure, but let's not stifle the necessary evolution of thought. Is it just me?

Miles away and still in our hearts. The gang was over last night, passing along the feeling along with the bottle. It was a small satisfaction to hit a plastic button and hear your voice.
Follow your heart and you'll never go wrong. Piss on what the "industry" says. Do what you feel and need to do.
Love to all......from the whole bunch of us here on the left coast.
