A ReverbNation question

[blackbirdrising]

Hi guys I'm sorry for my absence this last week. (I also realize that I probably was not missed by anyone lol, since I've only been coming here less than a month). I've been battling a very bad depression, and losing miserably on some days! I'll be fine once the holidays are over. Anyways, I had a question - Does anyone know how many artists there are on the "Global-all genres" and "Global - Other" charts at ReverbNation? I know there are currently 2.3 million users, but that includes fans, as well as artists. I'm having a ball watching Adam go up the charts at Reverb. His ranking as of today is: (Local) #15 (National Rank) #7,951 (Global - Other) #16,728 (Global - All genres) #501,964 He's listed in Sevierville, TN under "Other/Country/Rock/Blues/Folk"...and you would think... I mean common sense would almost dictate, that Sevierville, TN (Home of Dolly Parton) would be majority country/folk/blues music - NOT - its some kind of dubstep, thrashy punk rock music. Of course, Sevierville is a very small town, so we and other small surrounding towns are lumped in with "Knoxville". I'm just curious, if he's 501,964 - out of how many? Do any of the artists here know where to find that out? Thanks.

Supposedly that information is not released by reverbnation. Also the list can't be trusted, it says local #15 but in reality half of them are from somewhere close but not actually sevierville.

Yeh,I saw some from Clinton, Maryville, and Lenoir City in the "Local" list. Not surprising, I think our town has a population of 8,000. And the gigs are all "Book Venue" in Knoxville (thats the big city near us). Except when Dollywood is searching for artists, and that's seasonal. We have an audition for Dollywood on January 13th for the spring folk festival. I'm sure we won't get a callback, there are literally people coming from a thousand miles away to audition! But its a life experience just the same, and we love the energy, the music, the people. It's all for the good times, lettin' it roll
