STUFF THAT YOU WILL FIND NOWHERE ELSE What are the critics saying? "EXCELLENT AND HIGHLY ENTERTAINING!" - Sandy Kenyon, Entertainment Reporter, WABC-TV, Ch. 7, New York WHAT IS THIS BOOK ALL ABOUT? In an era where records, radio, press and TV don?t matter as much anymore, songwriting and live performance are everything. And the art and craft of songwriting and performing haven?t changed. That?s what this book is all about. Those who do not learn from the mistakes of those who went before are doomed to repeat them, or something like that. After ten years playing in bar bands, five years tour managing, and 20+ years at a major record label working with a hundred or so rock stars and newbies, the author accumulated a lot of knowledge about what works and what doesn't in the areas of songwriting, live performance and career moves in the music biz. That is what this book is all about.
