More links to blog posts by EXPO attendees...
Here's a link to the MySpace blog of a new songwriter who's attending the 2007 ASCAP "I Create Music" EXPO. She's got some great things to say about what she's been picking up in the various sessions:
"I have quickly learned what NOT to do and have scooped up a LARGE amount of info in a short period of time. The past few days have inspired me, informed me, and mostly given me the feeling that I belong. The people there are from a diverse group of artists at different levels in their careers and from a colorful cross-section of genres."
UPDATE: Here's another MySpace post about the EXPO - this one about Thursday night's evening performance at the club The Highlands, hosted by John Rich of Big & Rich and featuring performances by Rich as well as Jimmy Webb, J.D. Souther and Michelle Shocked:
"All I can say.....while bowing.....we're not worthy...we're not worthy!!!!
One cannot call this an ordinary 'songwriter's circle'. A truly amazing quartet of our all time greats were heard tonight at The Highlands. On the stage were Michelle Shocked, JD Souther, John Rich and Jimmy Webb.

It was a real Master Class in songwriting. Cheers to all and continued success."
