Now people from other bands want to buy me some. How much should i charge? is there any normal rate there? I'm thinking of a per song fee with no real hopes to see the face of royalties here... thanks all! -------------------- you wish!!!!

But if you want something in advance, the other half must be really in need or your name is Bernie Taupin, for instance...Jokes apart, You should expect any revenues, after the song is published, recorded, braodcasted. , etc. And if you are member of one of the collecting organizations (BMI, ASCAP; SESAC, etc)then you will cash them in the future... Hope this will be useful (Sorry if I am loosing some of the prolegomenon.)

So that's why I'd rather sell em lyrics and wish em good luck... have a nice day people! -------------------- you wish!!!!
