Question for smoothmoniker or other music biz buff

Interesting, thanks for your comments. Obviously I'm not in America, so don't know how I could really help with yours UT - unless it's a burgeoning global empire (you never know). I don't have any tangible knowledge of the industry but I know what sounds good; I could loosely be described as a musician but am perhaps more realistically musical - I know what sounds good, I have excellent rhythm (don't) and think I could pick out what my label and the public actually want.

So it's basically a case of 'getting in there' - meeting the right execs/talent etc. People tend to like me when they meet me - well, maybe 'like' is the wrong word - but they certainly see something about me, and I think if I get lucky in the right situation I could be taken under someone's wing. I just don't know how to put myself in these places - hang around recording studio coffee shops? Going to the right parties is all very well if you have an invite. It all looks a bit daunting from the bottom rung.
