"Last year Curb Music, Artist Building Partners, and other "Fest Heads" helped out with stage locations," Festival coordinator, Cornelius "Popcorn" Robertson explains. "Staff writers of Sony/BMG, Warner-Chappell/Ash Street Music and hundreds of others jumped in to lend their talents. At the Writers Retreat, pros "who have been there done that," shared personal experiences. The Open House is a whirlwind of unscheduled meet and greets. This year many surprises await."

"Popcorn" continues. "Everyone who comes to the fest will have an opportunity to share their original lyrics, song or music. We welcome all forms of songwriting. Writers are encouraged to come as they are and find their place in the mix. We are not a contest or competition."

"There are no set pre qualifications to attend all or part of the Fest. Each individual determines what they can do to help a part of the event by setting their own sign up fee. We all chip in together and that's what makes the fest happen." The fest is now open and accepting sign ups for the June 2008 season.

Check the top ten tunes today, and you?ll see (hear) that sometimes there?s even talent in certain how-to-make-it formulas, though it?s not absolutely required. Performers find many ways to counterfeit talent anyway, while technical positions have live, open-access reality checks daily. You want more information about music see http://www.trackbuzzer.com
