I’ve been gone a bit. But we had a family tradegy and then I had about 5 days of technical problems that added to everything. Hopefully we will be getting back on the ball here. So this will be very short. Surprisingly enough there is little information around the net concerning Concert Promotions. We will do the best we can about bringing things to light.
I have asked myself that question a little bit, and really don’t have an answer just yet. I guess we will end up going where you want us to go. We will be talking about old concerts, new Concert Promotions and all about the whole business side of Concert Promotions.
I’m just excited about having this site up now. While I have no desire to actually get out there and mix it up in the world of promoting concerts, of any kind, I do like to talk about what is going on. And hopefully we will be able to steer you in the right direction if you are a budding promoter hopeful. I spent quite a few years in radio and know a few things about promotions. I have been around a fair amount of time.
After all, I was 16 in 1967 when Janis Joplin came to our high school cafeteria and performed at one of our dances. She was the lead singer for Big Brother and The Holding Company at that time. The way things were set up, the stage was just about a foot high. So we could dance right in front of the stage, and sometimes even be close enough that when Janis really belted out a song, you’d get spit on, or I should say sprayed was more like it. Point being I have been around a while.
Today is a world of difference from the old days obviously, but some things never change and that is the chase after the almighty dollar. Or whatever currency you might deal with in your country if you’re out of the U.S.
So let’s see where this takes us. And don’t forget to take a look at the book we have to offer here. It has some great information in it. Well worth the price I must say.
