Definitions by D.S. Credito
controlled environment
a place or area where rules, regulations and behavioral norms are subject to strict enforcement or scrutiny. A person responsible for maintaining order in a controlled environment will normally strive to appear consistent when out in the open, but may enforce rules arbitrarily behind closed doors.
Kids who grow up in excessively controlled environments often fall behind in college, having all that freedom to cut loose but not knowing how to manage it.

Pawleys Plantation
a gated, virtually all white community situated on a golf course in Pawleys Island, South Carolina, located to the south of Myrtle Beach. Many residents of Pawleys Island are middle aged transplants from the north and midwest of the U.S., who claim to have moved south "for the warm weather," "to be near the beach," or "to play more golf." Yet many of these same people seem to see nothing morally wrong about living in a neighborhood whose name contains the word "plantation," which for anyone with any kind of a liberal mind evokes horrific images of slavery and racial segregation.
Pawleys Plantation has a staff of guards at the front gate, twenty-four hours a day, every day of the year.

playing position
usually refers to the storage of a stringed instrument (i.e. guitar, violin). When resting, a stringed instrument kept within a case in the playing position may stay in tune more effectively, since its parts will have less adjusting to do when the instrument is being played.
Guitarists should keep their instruments in a hard case, storing it long-ways in the playing position so that the instrument looks just like it would if it were being held and played.

song selling
Song selling takes place when a singer-songwriter earns money in exchange for the rights to use his or her original music, often to a (more) famous, or up-and-coming, recording artist.
If a singer-songwriter has written a catchy song but seems to fall short on vocal or instrumental ability, a listener might say, "you should sell your song." Hearing this can be extremely disheartening for singer-songwriters, especially those who are still developing their talents, or have not yet enjoyed their fifteen minutes of fame.

Why does song selling even exist? Any band or singer who is worth their weight can write their own songs.
