A Girl Named Raye was homeless until she was recently discovered by music producer Scobie Ryder. She has a great voice and is on her way to becoming a big star. She's similar to artists like Chrissie Hynde, Katie Melua, Sandi Thom, Kellt Clarkson, Dusty Springfield and Sheryl Crow. Have a look at her website http://www.agirlnamedraye.com and here's her Cinderella story: http://www.sharenow.com/blog/post/395/ She wants to support homeless charities - good on her!

Hey! That sounds just like ME! I have a whole lot of nothing that I wouldn't mind losing. I'm cheap! Easy, too!

Phil, grow boobs and learn how to give people the infamous "puppy eyes." That'll work.. I think.

"puppy eyes" Is that what you young guys call it now.
For my luck the only thing that would pull up would be a hooter hummer :roll:

Gee...I'm just a few mallowmars away from getting those man-boobies...I already got the long lashes...I think I'm on my way, gents!

Thanks for the helpful advice!

Today I get to work with the flat singer guy. Tonight I'm working with the jazzy guy. Sunday I'm gonna check out that band that's 35-40 miles away.

I went ahead & scheduled that solo gig for next weekend, too. Wish me luck with my numbish fingers.

Philby. not that it matters but, Ray drives about 45 miles. Steve drives about 30. I just walk out my back door. Every Tuesday for practice.
Just sayin I know if it's what your looking for you will find a way to make it work.
