Question
Phil, I search for "Keith Senior" on MySpace, and the system returned 145000 leads! Did you give me that name as a joke? If your friend is real, would you mind telling me WHERE and HOW exactly to find him on myspace? Thanks in advance,
sam.

Sam,

Thanks for writing. The music industry is not my area of expertise, so I won't be able to truly offer advice in this area. However, a good friend of mine is a recording engineer and record producer. Check out his website on Myspace.com. His names is Keith Senior. Write to him there and maybe he can offer some advice on how to get started in music.

Hope this helps. Good luck!

Phil
