Rob Thomas?????never even heard of him,
Bill Dees???Oh, yes, A Hall of Famer for sure, or should be, and should have been a long time ago,
Bill Dees co-wrote “Oh, Pretty Woman” with Roy Orbison, one of the biggest songs of all time, and has really never had the thanks he really deserves.
Well, he has written so many songs on his own, “Sleepy Hollow” being one of the well known ones, but, just one in hundreds.
Bill Dees should be in the “Song Writer’s Hall of Fame”

Jack, thank you so much for all you do,
We love Bill and you so much,

Jeanie

Rob, Rob, Rob,
This is only the second time I have heard your name in my life. The first time being a few months ago when you were scheduled to do a phone interview with radio station WLNK – The Link, in Charlotte, N.C. on the syndicated “Matt & Ramona Show”. Guess what??? You did not come through at the last minute as you chose another radio station!?!?! Your fans were pissed and called in for several days….and now this??
What is going on young man to make you such a pompous ass? Learn from Bill Dees and Jack Pribek in every way, professionally and personally!!!!
Keep your baggage to yourself as it is not at all becoming to you.

Chris O’Neill, well said.
Bill Dees and Jack Pribek, thank you for keeping the music going!
Love ya
Mean it
Susan

It is times like these when I really, really, truly …really, no lie, really miss Dr J and D Lady… yep, cannot get on without them.

Rob Thomas – you’re not in the same league as Bill Dees mate! I don’t see anywhere where Jack Pribek spat the dummy for not being considered – read carefully. Bill Dees is a genious and his legacy will be around way, way after we’re all dead and gone. What do you reckon about your stuff Rob – will it stand the test of time – like Oh Pretty Woman, It’s Over, Crawling Back, Borne On The Wind, Wind Surfer, There WOn’t Be Many Coming Home, She, Breakin Up Is Breakin My Heart, the list goes on and on .. don’t shoot the messenger Rob, have a look at the man Jack’s referring to and you tell me whether he should or should not be up there.

Oh, Yes, that guy… silly me:

My opinion is [still] that the afore mentioned crooner is a matchless nitwit with a mind that thinks only inside the Box.

i spend all day and night writing songs. i make a living writing songs. i am a songwriter. what exactly is it that YOU do that gives you the right to criticize what i do? you (maybe) make a living being a douche anonymously to hard working people. i agree that your “friends” should be in the hall of fame, but if YOU were a writer, you wouldn’t be writing here. you, sir, are an ass clown. good luck with your blog.
