By reading further you assume all liability if you are offended. Otherwise, Stop Right Here!!! Seriously true, check out the public link of her on Facebook as well. Did all of this occur in the room where Anna Nicole Smith died?? Wow! What is it with this place? U ought to be ashamed of yourself Jenn T. or Jennifer Tierney or whatever your name is for trying to manipulate younger guys for your own gain and extort money to cover your debts and kids summer camp by acting like a whore to someone who is a devoted Christian. Also, If you are, Stop mentally and emotionally abusing your kids too!? If you have any?? (If a child is binging with food at 7 years old it is something to be concerned about, don't ya think?) One teen already killed himself and one of her close adult friends Steve, Strange huh? Sounds pretty sad or more than a coincidence, right? Maybe not, I hope someone investigates and helps if this is in fact true because it was described on more than one occasion by people involved. I assure you none of this is slander or libelous and since these people work with the public and control products that can interact with the public all of this information is relevant and newsworthy and if the other things are true they need to be investigated. If anything harmful or negative should befall Xander or myself (Mr. Thunder) or anyone closely associated with us you may want to investigate Ms. Tierney or whoever, especially her friend Eddie or Eddy criminally or for conspiracy to do such. Apparently he handles or helps to facilitate acts of vengeance and retribution that are spit with the venom from this demented tormented soul with a surface level smile named Jennifer Tierney. Yes, she did threaten such and told of many acts where she has assaulted others personally in South Florida Hard Rock offices. Get in touch with us if you were one of those assaulted and we will do our best to help you out.
Most of the information is primarily a Rock -n- Roll opinion by Mr. Thunder though but was provided by sources with knowledge of these public events already described online and depicted online. It is all true and can verified if need be or can it? I guess that would depend on how much very wealthy well connected people and organizations try to hide and conceal what is already out there or could be uncovered. So, no matter whether she removes some of her public info or not or parades pictures of her mildly borderline down syndrome child on her public site to create sympathy, which she didn't used to do before this episode. She can be sure her true deeds will find her out and reveal her true character. You can bet on it! Otherwise, Why expose all of it at the risk of being sued. This cheap harlot Tart says she is very close with many Industry folk and claims Record Producer/Industry professional Steve Rifkind pursues her on a regular basis. She dated one of the guys from N'Sync in her younger days. She has pictures of her closely linked with Terrell Owens (I know. Lol. Should have been a give away that she has issues, right?) She worked at ABC/Disney/Clear channel/ASCAP and now Hard Rock Vodka as Vice President posted publicly online in multiple places. Etc. Holy Cow! Is the industry really that corrupt and mired in immoral dysfunctional behavior? Ha ha. She claims, to have the goods (secrets on a lot of folk) on people around her. Who knows for sure?

To whom it may concern:
I appreciate your expressed enjoyment of my music and thinking of me for the offer described. If you take the time to view my biography you will no doubt realize that I am not unknown. You can simply type SimonThunder into any search browser to find that out. So, I wouldn't really meet the criteria for submission. Also, I really don't see what "Night Train" has to do with America's favorite past time, which is still baseball. Right?
I am a professional and very serious independent artist that has a connection to the Industry as a active voting Grammy member and BMI published artist. That being said, I appreciate you taking the time to write to me and again thinking of me for the opportunity. I can't really see selling out in any way shape or form ever at this time unless some greater :)overwelming good might be involved. It just really isn't me!
However, as a songwriter, artist, composer, trained business person, etc... If there are any opportunities where someone likes my diverse music and would like me to consider writing them something for a specific purpose, product, or endeavor. I am open to hearing about the possibility and the potential to agree to a mutually beneficial contract. In the meantime, take care and best wishes. Cheers!
Sincerely,
Ian Dylan Simon Xander Thunder
(People ask: So, yeah. Thunder is my birth name!)
Have a nice day! Peace.

January 27, 2009 Status: Selected Updated On: February 24, 2009 Response: RATING SCALE "1" Indicates the Lowest Score "5" Indicates The Highest Score Recording Quality/Production: 3.5 Lead Vocals: 4 Musicianship: 4.5 Lyric Writing: 4 Music Composing: 4 Melodies: 5 Song Arrangement: 3.5 Dear Ian, Thanks for submitting the material for the evaluation. I enjoyed listening to the songs. To give you insight to the scoring scale above, the majority of artists score in the 2.5 to 3.5 range in the various categories. Whenever an artist sees a 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3 or 3.5 as a score in a certain category (or categories) it means that's an area I feel they need to improve and develop. When someone sees 4, 4.5 or 5 as their score in a category, that tells them, to me, they are in the professional league and have strong potential. It's a validation from a pro, letting you know you are doing a fine job. Every artist should work hard to earn 4.5 to 5 in every category. It's a very competitive business and people averaging in the 3's (or less) will probably not get too far without a great deal of improvement and development. I don't give out 4's and 5's easily, so any of those you see, you have earned. Well done! - By Eugene Foley

Katy Perry and her illegal Copyright Infringement of the Simon Thunder song "Cali(fornia) Girl"
Current mood: shocked
Category: Music
Whoever stole/wrote, produced, arranged, recorded, mixed, played, and party to your song "California Gurls" has infringed on my melody, lyrics, and musical riffs from my "Cali(fornia) Girl" song which was written long ago and copyrighted for recorded release in 2007-2008. My song was listed in many categories on 2008 Grammy list! Seriously, don't you folks have anything else to do besides rip other artists off!!!
If you want to pursue this illegal action and be sued let me know?? If you are not smart enough or musically proficient enough to hear it in the mix. I will be happy to help educate and school you!!
Here is the link for copyright infringement! It is my main two melodical riffs from my song underlying and overlaid on the her song! That is all I found so far!!! No doubt her upcoming album will be scrutinized for more theft of my musical and lyrical property! Seriously, to sing the same words from my song on the same melody from my song! How utterly impudent! How lame!!! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyright_infringement
Posted to twitter and my updates on May 24, 2010:
Your a hitmaker when Katy Perry and company try to steal your melodies in your Copyrighted BMI Published song. No doubt! She will get sued!
posted new blog entries: The NARAS sponsored "Performance Rights Act" and other pertinent issues. and Katy Perry and her illegal Copyright Infringement of Simon Thunder song "Cali(fornia) Girl"!
My brief note to Grammy corporate:
Perhaps, you folks might want to take some action of your own with Ms. Katy Perry and writing team/producers/the label etc. It is quite obvious if you are a musical person, but to do it such a blatant fashion is just really low! I mean to completely disregard my Grammy accomplishments as a Grammy Voting Member and Artist! Regarding what? Well, how about that she/they swiped a couple of my main melodies/concept from my "Cali(fornia) Girl" song and put them into her "California Gurlz" song. I mean really, is it necessary to educate every unethical ignoramus by engaging in a ugly lawsuit! I willingly pursued being a voting member with specific independent agendas that benefit the greater whole. Where as Katy Perry membership was handed to her after her corporate record label lobbies to get her nominated. So, if you care enough I would appreciate your efforts and help in avoiding a potentially nasty protracted legal event! I really detest and find it quite deplorable to even be in this situation and would not be if katy Perry had an inkling of what it means to be ethical in business or life. I suppose some people think they can get away with anything. I am informing you that if I start the ball rolling permanently on this situation. I will not yield no matter the cost and time involved. I am quite adept at finding creative legal ways to resolve a myriad of tasks that might fatigue the mind and patience of others. I have no doubt that if I pursue other avenues some lawyer who really wants to make a career off this will jump at the chance. However, I already have people in place to begin pursuing this resolution to this matter. I have paused momentarily only because it will impact many and wanted to take the away defensive excuse that I did not try to resolve more peaceably by offering a metaphorical olive branch. Have a lovely day! Cheers!! :0)
P.S.
I do not subscribe or participate in nepotism. I am equipped and fortified well enough to wage my own battles in this war. However, if you are not on the side of what is right and just in accordance with the practice of legal ethics you will run the risk of exasperating some of those most powerful groups and forceful entities in this Universe. By the time, you realize how well I am connected. It will be too late and you will begging for mercy. I repeat no quarter will be given. You will have brought all of this public shame and legal punishment on yourself. Therefore, I urge you to rectify the situation before grace runs out! Theft of my legally copryrighted material through the library of congress or any property of mine will not be tolerated!! I guarantee and bet my life and all I hold dear that every word I speak is the truth!!! This is your final warning before every legal avenue is has been completely exhausted against all that are respnsible for this illegal infraction against "BMI © Published Grammy Voting Member Artist Simon Dylan "Ian" Xander Thunder™/OD Nation™/Suicide or Famous?™/Unsigned & Defiantly Independent Records™/Oxygen Detonation™/Ante-Diluvian Entertainment™, © All Rights reserved 2010 .

February 11th, 2009: Update regarding Governor Chapter Board selection. Please read below to view my pre-grammy ceremony submission for review: Thanks! Please read the full biography listed below the February updates of this educated professional and BMI Published and L.A. Chapter Grammy Voting Member Singer/Artist/Musician/Writer/Actor/Poet/Producer/Engineer/Filmmaker/Videographer/Editor/Graphic Designer "Simon Xander Thunder", which is a name brand you can trust who is a prolific indie maverick and a philosophically innovative non-sellout artist and seeker of truth and knowledge. Thank you. Be well and take care. Cheers!
To whom it may concern:
Thank you for the opportunity to apply to the Chapter for a role in governing activities and participating in outreach and other programs to improve the community and enrich the lives of others through The Recording Academy. This is something that I already do in my current life as an Independent Artist through charity and outreach via my own music, words, and sonic business endeavors.
If you really desire a governing representative that has knowledge, training, education, and experience in all the fields related to The Recording Academy Industry with a unique perspective and innovative approach and understanding of how to listen, accept, and understand the disparity and subjugation that is prevalent in the Industry without being judgmental and exclusively rigid in a philosophy towards solutions that really work and accomplish the creation of bridges across the chasm toward mutually beneficial goals between the Independent and Corporate worlds of music. Then I would be honored to open up a dialogue to serving in this capacity or any other that you feel might be helpful. You may review my other music endeavors at www.simonthunder.net and sonic samples at www.myspace.com/simonthunder , www.myspace.com/suicideorfamous , www.myspace.com/oxygendetonation , www.myspace.com/ianthunder , www.myspace.com/dylanthunder , and www.myspace.com/dolphinboymusic .

I had a great time at the ceremony and after parties in L.A. Robert Plant was nice enough to give me a nod and greeting of approval when we got off the red carpet heading towards the performers entrance whatever the means. I am not huge Zep or Plant Fan but I suppose their is some circular significance since I was at one of their last concerts and backstage as a baby boy when Plant was almost arrested for hitting a cop with his mic stand! Well, I hope you enjoyed your evening. Perhaps, I will have an opportunity to attend the other viewing parties and any other events at the Chapters sometime in the near future. Please feel free to keep in touch and keep me up to date on future events or activities. Thank you. I mean seriously, why miss an opportunity to promote yourself and find some common ground to take the new music industry into the future where differences are acceptably honored with tolerance and not exploited, plundered, and buried or eliminated. Take care and best wishes. Cheers!
February 11th, 2009: Post Grammy Ceremony update! I will have a review soon with insight and new artist info on all SimonThunder related Internet sites very soon. Thanks! - J.T. Dolphinboy Music BMI
In my most recent research I realized that I am a all original somewhat reclusive performing and recording artist that has discovered that my debut 32 song 4 album release under 3 solo brand names Simon Thunder, Dylan Thunder, Ian Thunder and two band brand names Oxygen Detonation, Suicide Or Famous is a uniquely original first of any kind since the music Industry began.
The funniest and most amazing part of this story! Is that this is second stage of what will be my still completely independent sophomore effort which will be at the very least triple of what I have already accomplished. Without a doubt my place in the new frontier of the present and future music industry will securely place me as a historic visionary slightly ahead of my time completely unrivaled in both quality and quantity for years to come when this timeline becomes the past of music history.
As a artist/writer/singer/musician/producer/engineer who has never sold out and become corrupted I have truly earned the right to express my opinions and criticize everything else while opening myself up to the judgement and criticism of others and to the acceptance of tolerance and coexistence within this new realm. In light of this obvious proof I am truly the only musical artist & poet to defy an industry and court it as an independent beyond reproach. Stay tuned for my further insight and continued triumph.
My 2009 51st Grammy Award Submissions that were reviewed, classified, and accepted into the nomination categories for voting by 6,000 to 12,000 voting academy members.

February 11th, 2009: Post Grammy Ceremony update! I will have a review soon with insight and new artist info on all SimonThunder related Internet sites very soon. Thanks! - J.T. Dolphinboy Music BMI
Substance is Everything! Everything Else is Meaningless! An Industry Review of my Music..Lol.:)
Everything else is meaningless...Substance is Everything! Finished and Complete! All that I am and have is due to my own free will and the divine benevolence of the creator of the universe from the void of nothingness that created everything!
The funny thing about charlatans like this industry guy or group review is that they are a part of the parasitic environment of agents, managers, entertainment lawyers, radio traffickers, indie/major labels, artists who sell out their integrity, and any other kind middle men or women etc. who sponge off the talent of real artists to create a revenue for themselves. I believe art and artists should be completely subsidized to help maintain the integrity and sustained original longevity of it!
This so called well connected, industry respected, Harvard graduate, blah blah blah, etc. Did a review of some of my songs... the most hilarious things about all of his comments are the truths that are not mentioned. 1) My songs that are rated on his review are all non-cd mp3 sound quality. 2) The other is that there are radio edits of my songs as well as long artistic versions. The radio edits were edited for some fans who asked for them and not because of industry requests as I could care less. 3) All of the 32 diverse acoustic and band recordings (except my band Suicide Or Famous- Atropos and Golden Orb) that were released in 2008 were recorded completely live after a long flight and non-rehearsed wake up. Also, the mere fact of what is possible for me as a artist if I were to be thrust into the corporate arena would literally leave every other musical persona in the dust. All that I have already accomplished as a indie artist already raises the bar. I am beyond comparison and the new emerging standard of excellence. Even according to the industry scale below I am at the top level without even trying just by waking up and doing everything myself. My melodies at the top of the scale is the most important thing to me because that cannot be learned. It must be given spiritually from beyond this dimension. Everything else can be learned, trained, or performed by any capable intelligent mammal. Therefore, I am the chosen one to sound the call from the wilderness before the utter of the Seven Thunders! No one else in this era has my blessed unique interpretive sounding ability of melody. -SimonDylanIanXanderThunder :)
Conclusion: I choose to mention these things to further illustrate the inept ability of the industry to categorize and review music and to allow roomy space for the flexibility of creative innovation.
Example: According to the guy below: Rap music music stretched what was acceptable for verses and choruses in length. How? I mean... How ridiculous... The artist dictates through pure creation ( I am not one of those contrived manufactured songwriters either) through the acceptance of musical enthusiasts over time determine that and then the industry and their so called experts hop on the band wagon later as unique innovation gets reabsorbed back into the system.
In closing, I want to set the record straight. My heart and soul cannot be bought or sold by anyone in the industry. Of course, I am accepting of differences and there is certainly room for mediocrity and different views, actions, and opinions.. However, there is only one or two potential industry deals that I am open to or interested in and no one has offered me either of those yet. Perhaps, because there is lack of creative imagination on their part or brave boldness to be different and take chances. Well, the 1st option involves a band concept with a bass player and drummer I have in mind. It would be something new and innovative and I will not surrender my solo and individual endeavors to do it either. The sole purpose of doing this kind of deal wthin the industry would be to create a bridge of understanding, respect, and mutally beneficial communication towards a brighter more open future between the indie realm and corporate world for the edification of both. The 2nd option involves a reality show starring me and my method style of genuiness. I would completely tell the truth about the industry and hopefully they are not afraid to air it. We could call it "The making of a Rock Star" featuring Simon Thunder, "The savior of Rock -n- Roll"! Lol... all of this is my joke on the industry. They have been exploiting the artist for decades. So, why not do the same to them for know reason in particular that I really care about, except to pass time just for the hell of it.

Substance is Everything! Everything Else is Meaningless! An Industry Review of my Music..Lol.:)
Everything else is meaningless...Substance is Everything! Finished and Complete! All that I am and have is due to my own free will and the divine benevolence of the creator of the universe from the void of nothingness that created everything!
The funny thing about charlatans like this industry guy or group review is that they are a part of the parasitic environment of agents, managers, entertainment lawyers, radio traffickers, indie/major labels, artists who sell out their integrity, and any other kind middle men or women etc. who sponge off the talent of real artists to create a revenue for themselves. I believe art and artists should be completely subsidized to help maintain the integrity and sustained original longevity of it!
This so called well connected, industry respected, Harvard graduate, blah blah blah, etc. Did a review of some of my songs... the most hilarious things about all of his comments are the truths that are not mentioned. 1) My songs that are rated on his review are all non-cd mp3 sound quality. 2) The other is that there are radio edits of my songs as well as long artistic versions. The radio edits were edited for some fans who asked for them and not because of industry requests as I could care less. 3) All of the 32 diverse acoustic and band recordings (except my band Suicide Or Famous- Atropos and Golden Orb) that were released in 2008 were recorded completely live after a long flight and non-rehearsed wake up. Also, the mere fact of what is possible for me as a artist if I were to be thrust into the corporate arena would literally leave every other musical persona in the dust. All that I have already accomplished as a indie artist already raises the bar. I am beyond comparison and the new emerging standard of excellence. Even according to the industry scale below I am at the top level without even trying just by waking up and doing everything myself. My melodies at the top of the scale is the most important thing to me because that cannot be learned. It must be given spiritually from beyond this dimension. Everything else can be learned, trained, or performed by any capable intelligent mammal. Therefore, I am the chosen one to sound the call from the wilderness before the utter of the Seven Thunders! No one else in this era has my blessed unique interpretive sounding ability of melody. -SimonDylanIanXanderThunder :)
Conclusion: I choose to mention these things to further illustrate the inept ability of the industry to categorize and review music and to allow roomy space for the flexibility of creative innovation.
Example: According to the guy below: Rap music music stretched what was acceptable for verses and choruses in length. How? I mean... How ridiculous... The artist dictates through pure creation ( I am not one of those contrived manufactured songwriters either) through the acceptance of musical enthusiasts over time determine that and then the industry and their so called experts hop on the band wagon later as unique innovation gets reabsorbed back into the system.
In closing, I want to set the record straight. My heart and soul cannot be bought or sold by anyone in the industry. Of course, I am accepting of differences and there is certainly room for mediocrity and different views, actions, and opinions.. However, there is only one or two potential industry deals that I am open to or interested in and no one has offered me either of those yet. Perhaps, because there is lack of creative imagination on their part or brave boldness to be different and take chances. Well, the 1st option involves a band concept with a bass player and drummer I have in mind. It would be something new and innovative and I will not surrender my solo and individual endeavors to do it either. The sole purpose of doing this kind of deal wthin the industry would be to create a bridge of understanding, respect, and mutally beneficial communication towards a brighter more open future between the indie realm and corporate world for the edification of both. The 2nd option involves a reality show starring me and my method style of genuiness. I would completely tell the truth about the industry and hopefully they are not afraid to air it. We could call it "The making of a Rock Star" featuring Simon Thunder, "The savior of Rock -n- Roll"! Lol... all of this is my joke on the industry. They have been exploiting the artist for decades. So, why not do the same to them for know reason in particular that I really care about, except to pass time just for the hell of it.

"Art is a lie that makes us realize the truth" by Pablo Picasso.
"All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed, second it is violently opposed, and third, it is accepted as self-evident."
Arthur Schopenhauer, Philosopher (1788-1860)
"The task of leadership, the first task of concerned people, is not to condemn or castigate or deplore; it is to search out the reason for disillusionment and alienation, the rationale of protest and dissent--perhaps, indeed to learn from it."
Robert F. Kennedy, Politician (1925-1968)
