Old black and white cheaply made and badly acted horror films! (I love em! They are so CHEEEEEEEP!)
Also, the 40's and 50's detective dramas. Any b&w movie. Also, movies by great actors: Al Pacino, Robert Deniro, Jimmy Stewart, many others.

Books
Non-fiction books that have something I can learn from.
Dimension One Records is a local indie label committed to helping artists, musicians and bands help themselves by giving them access to the resources and tools necessary for success.
This is the "California Gold Rush" for independent music because NEVER in the history of the music business has there been opportunities to control your own career as there is now. With access to online distribution, the power of the internet, and the chance to network with literally millions of people, local artists have the power to "act locally" and "think globally" about their music and their careers.
Don't be fooled into waiting for the "BIG RECORD DEAL", thinking someone else is going to pay your way. Get out there and carve your own niche, copy the tried and true methods of other successful artists and then improve on those methods.
Educate yourself about the profession you've chosen and don't be afraid to roll up your sleeves and do the work. If you don't, you'll have noone to blame but yourself, but if you do, you'll have noone to thank but yourself.
Turn ons
Great music, watching a band that has that connection perform live on stage, many other things.
Turn offs
Fear and ignorance. All the worlds problems seem to stem from these two conditions.
Thanks, Mike C, and to all for the good thoughts on my b-day. The actual show my music will be on is "The Young & The Restless" btw, lol..thats ok, tho..I dont watch soaps myself, so I dont know one from another. I think all the plotlines could probably be bunched into one anyways.. my wife records and watches a few of them, so I get my fill of drama..
