HELPING TO THE SPREAD THE WORD
NEVER UNDERMINE YOUR OWN WORTH , BY COMPARING YOURSELF TO OTHERS....NOT MY ORIGINAL QUOTE BUT WORDS I LIVE BY..
YOU WILL NEVER FIND ME COMPARING MYSELF TO OTHER PAGES SIMILIAR TO MY PAGE
My page ROCKS , I am proud of how much I have learned and the time and energy I have put into this page
And I am most grateful for the artist ,who find time to PRIVATELY tell me I have helped them and They get My Page
I do not need to publically put down others and I don't even need approval publically
I believe in My Page and so do most of the other 600+ artist on my friends list
Every once and awhile , I may put out a FRIEND REQUEST but in general ,I do not "chase" others or try to push my page or my ideas onto other people
Most of My Artist Friends have sent me the FRIEND REQUEST and I am truly honored for that
NOW ...deep breath...I am going to explain Why You should want to be on my page..rather than tell you whats wrong with any other page
So Here It Goes:
My name is Melissa
I am 36
I am a single mom
I have MS
I own a business outside of myspace ,that keeps me finacially secure and comfortable
About 10 months or so ago, I was going to a Taylor Hicks Concert at the Civic Center
I met him and He personally signed an autograph for my daughter
I wanted to thank him so I found his myspace page
(I kept hearing about this myspace thing but was under the impression it was just full of perverts so I was reluctant to make a page)
Well, needless to say , I found MUSIC !
In my sheltered little world , I could tell you big names off the Country station ,but had no idea how much talent was out there
Well,suddenly , I was meeting Rodney Atkins, Sara Evans , Luke Bryan ,Bucky Covington , Dierks Bentley
I found myself anxious to come to my page here and tell the world how cool they all were
As time passed , I kept getting these obscene emails from perverts ,just as I thought might happen
Well,I may like to wear clothes that may or may not flatter my figure,but I was not looking to trade gross emails with strange men in cyberspace
I decided to turn my page around a bit.
There are no victims ( except for innocent children)
We make choices
We present ourselves to the world and then get offended because we dont like how the world sees us
I changed the layout of my page ,to reflect ME and my personal likes ,as far as music was concerned
I own my own business and have never worked very well with others
It took some time and some creative thinking
Shortly , I removed what appeared to be a "cheesy personal ad" format from my page and decided to replace it with my true love, Country Music
If I could help 1 artist by simply showing their music to new fans ,that is enough for me
I am not a professional promoter
I do carry myself in a professional manner
My page has become a personal project ,meant to help Me in my self discovery ,as well as help Indie artist of all genres
I can't do much for you
I can add your banner to my page
My page has over 17,000 unique views
Not bad for a Not-so-famous person
I can add your music to my REVERBNATION player
I can tell all my friends about your music
I am friendly with 3-4 Local DJ's and may or may not be able to get you airplay on the radio,in an area your music might not be played otherwise
I have some contacts with Famous People,some I am proud to call "friends"
But I am not available 24/7 nor can I teach you anything new
You can use my page as a "stepping Stone" to get where You want to go..but chances are you won't get there just by being on my page
You might have some fun and You will grab new fans
But if you are looking for real professional promotion,usually which cost tons of money , There are plenty of other good sites for you to find that
Everything I do on here , I do for free
I WANT you to USE me to get your music out there
But I will not allow you to abuse my kindness,not ever
My page is like a bridge ,I do not pretend to be The Other Side
I will treat you like I want to be treated
If I dig your music , I will bend over backwards to help you
I won't say "It's all free" and suddenly,one day,say "Ok,now pay me"
Thats not who I am and I will never pretend to be anything other than a FAN who decided to use my pent up energy to do kind things for other people
I believe in Karma
And the rewards I get for my work on here..usually show up in my REAL LIFE
Ok,so I said more about Myself than I ever wanted to share outloud
But there it is...If you think you would like to add your banner, your music ,your profile to my friends list and Get the most I can give you to help you along ...Then by all means ,please send me a note on here
I don't come on here and get personal with the Artist on my pages
No time for drama or even to make friends
If along the way, We can strike up a mutual conversation in email,thats just a Bonus for me :)
With that said , Please browse around , check out my page,click on the banners , play the songs in my reverbnation player and above all , I hope you walk away from this page thinking "Boy Howdy,That Was a Fun, Informative page...I think I want to have my music on there too"
May God bless You As Much as He has blessed Myself and My family
Past featured have included Blake Shelton , Adam D Tucker , Van Preston , Terry Eckard Band ,Matt Steele , CODIE PROVOST , BRON BUICK , and others
Thank you for taking the time to stop by my page and Hope to hear from you soon

"No(Wo)Man Is An Island"..not my original quote....
THE REASON MYSPACE FANS PAGES HELP INDIE ARTIST IS BECAUSE OF THE FANS BEHIND THE PAGES
NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF A FAN ( IF YOU SING A SONG ,AND NO ONE HEARS IT ..DOES IT MATTER HOW GOOD YOU SING IT??)
I Would Like to Introduce You to the Women & Men who Dedicate Their Time and Energy (and never ask for money) in order to help YOU succeed in the Music Biz...Stop by and Check out their pages....Chance are If I Can't Help you with something, They are more than willing to Help you
