20 years ago, there was no internet. There was no way for me, a kid in Kansas, to communicate directly with people in Hollywood that worked in music business. There were no mentors in KC because quite frankly, pretty much no one had a career and cover bands were king. That's not the music business.
So, I had to pack up, move to a shit apartment in Hollywood, learn the business, network, grow my skills, etc. and so on. I would have killed to have had a mentor but I had to learn everything the hard way, although I met a shit ton of people along the way that did help shape my career.
The bottom line is that snide remarks only make you appear to be an egotistical know-it-all jackass. And that's a combination that won't likely get you far in this business.

So, your remarks toward me are perfectly okay, because you're older and have put in your dues you can say whatever you want, call people names like 'dipshit' and 'dumbass'??
If you notice, I refer to you as Mr. McCloud.
I'm not trying to be snide, or flippant - I'm sorry you take it that way.
I thought it was funny. I figured you'd think that it was cool that I even care about rock music as opposed to ooopa gangnum style or what the **** ever.
Sarcasm doesn't tranfer well over the internets.
