Recording - October 2009 - 45

Continued from page 43 a 20, 30, 40, or 50 percent writer on a lot of my tracks—on the majority of my tracks. I’m a really small slice, so that gives you some idea. We’ve got 3,000 to 3,500 songs out there now. That’s the kind of money that is out there that people are making, and it’s only growing with things like current TV, and, in addition to cable, there are all sorts of Internet applications for music now. All right, Dean, tell them the helicopter story. Dean: I was about 11-, 12-years-old, growing up in a small town called Puyallup, Washington. At that time the town was quite small. It was like a two-street town, a main street with a bunch of two-story shops on it, and a couple of other intersecting streets. It was a bright and beautiful Saturday morning. It was a beautiful day, I was really excited. I’m young. I get up, I’ve got my bicycle sitting outside and I grab my pillowcase and I go out to bicycle. I wrap my pillowcase around the handlebars, I get on my bike and I peddle downtown. It’s about three miles to downtown Puyallup. It’s a beautiful day, but there’s something happening downtown. This is a big day; I’ve been waiting for this for a long time. I get downtown. I get about a block from the main town… and there were thousands of people on the streets. So, I get my bike. There is some kind of fence there. I take out my little combination lock and I lock my bike up. I grab my pillowcase—I’m all of 11years-old—and I’m fighting my way through these thousands of people just to get to the right spot, just to the right spot in the center of the town. I get there and I’m waiting and I’m waiting, and then all of a sudden—you know there are bigger people all around me— I hear it. I hear this deep kind of rotary sound. And the crowd gets still, and all of a sudden, we look up in the air—thousands of us—and coming over the tops of the buildings is this helicopter. The helicopter comes over the top of the buildings—I’m not kiddin’ ya—it comes over the top of the buildings, and all of a sudden we cheer. You know those little dandelions when they get white and you blow on it like that and a million little dandelion white things come out? All of a sudden we look up and from the helicopter there are thousands and thousands of little white things falling out of the sky. What they were, they were ping-pong balls. Now, they wouldn’t do that in this day and age because someone would get hit in the head and they’d sue ’em, but this was back then. So these thousands of ping-pong balls are fallin’ out of the sky… they’re floatin’ down. They hit the ground and everybody is scrambling. That’s why I have my pillowcase. I am scramblin’, I am filling it up with ping-pong balls. Why? Each ping- pong ball has a little mark on it, and each mark goes to a different store where you could redeem these for fabulous prizes, like you could get a Hot Wheels or a Barbie outfit or a candy bar or somethin’. So, I think I got 12 or 13 of those ping-pong balls and I think I traded the Barbie outfit with someone else. But it was cool anyway. So, we get all these ping-pong balls… The reason why I’m telling you this story is, to me, this is what TAXI listings are—the opportunities. Man, these opportunities—the listings, the companies, the libraries, the filmand-TV stuff. The opportunities are there, they are all around us, they are falling out of the sky. But, if we don’t show up, they’re going to go right by us. All the ping-pong balls are gonna drop whether we’re there or not and we won’t get any of them. We have to show up in our studios, we have to show up writing, we have to show up listening, listening to music and being current, we have to show up business-wise, we have to show up here at TAXI’s Road Rally. We just have to show up. We have to show up every day and in every way. And if you do, the opportunities are out there. Thank you, Dean. Thank you, Richard. Thank you, Daniel. You guys were great. I hope you’ve inspired some of the folks in the audience. 45
