Music Business Networking Event - 5/7 in Nashville

I'm kicking off May with a networking event for musicians, songwriters, artists, publishers, and anybody else in the music business who wants to come out and meet other people in the music business.

This Thursday, at 6pm, be here:

Yazoo Tap Room
1200 Clinton St (at 12th Ave N) - See a Map
Nashville, TN 37203

We expect it to last until around 8pm.  Around that time, or maybe a little before, we'll be doing a "behind the scenes" tour of WRLT, the flagship station of Music Business Radio.

Bring your business cards and your music business friends.  And if you want us to play your music on the show.

Yazoo Tap Room is located in the Marathon Motor Works building, as is WRLT.  It used to be a car factory and it's BIG!  The corner of 12th Ave N and Clinton is where you want to park and enter.  Call (615) 320-0290 if you need directions.

Derek Sivers of CD Baby - Audio Interview

Bob Baker just released an audio interview with Derek Sivers of CD Baby, which he did to promote Bob's Indie Buzz Bootcamp.  You can listen/download below.

Going to events like this is really important, not only because of what you'll learn, but also because you'll meet other musicians who are on your level.  It's a great place to swap information and connect with other people who are working as hard as you are.

I know both Bob and Derek personally and met each of them at music conferences.  And you can meet them both at one time, if you attend Indie Buzz Bootcamp.

By the way, if you haven't already downloaded my new audio book on networking, you can get it free by typing your name and email address in the righthand column.  It has some great tips for making connections with people while at events like this.

I'll have more information on Indie Buzz Bootcamp coming shortly.  Until then, enjoy this interview with Derek Sivers of CD Baby...
