Just found this in a german musicians jokes group.... "Recording artist": "Be at least 5'8 tall, have straight white teeth and at least rudimentary knowledge of basic guitar chords." nashville.craigslist.org/tlg/4947726264.html Is this the way it is? |

this is exactly what's going on, talent isn't even asked of a performers anymore, it's actually very sad.

It's satire. Probably someone who works in the industry doing talent auditioning who is sick and tired of all the hacks coming in.
Everybody who goes to Nashville has dreams of hitting it big right away and playing large shows with minimal knowledge, thus the "requirements"..

Everybody who goes to Nashville has dreams of hitting it big right away and playing large shows with minimal knowledge, thus the "requirements".. I read the satire the other way. Particularly, "Preferable if you're new to town, haven't played out very much and aren't working with a Manager. If you have your own songs we can talk about that down the road but not necessary." To me, that's satire of how songwriting production teams want a naive, good looking front group to exploit. It's the "Country Monkees" approach imo that is prevalent everywhere- "Rock Monkees", "Boy Band Monkees", "Hip Hop Monkees"..... |

I guess I base mine on knowing a ton of bands over the years that have all told me their grand plans of moving to some music/scene city and making it big, regardless of their (lack of) ability/knowledge/talent/looks, etc. |
