Provides new cutting-edge career paths in the notoriously difficult music industry
THIS BUSINESS OF CONCERT PROMOTION AND TOURING: A PRACTICAL GUIDE TO CREATING, SELLING, ORGANIZING AND STAGING CONCERTS provides new cutting-edge career paths in the notoriously difficult music industry, which has been virtually transformed by digitalization and online copying. Promoters of music have kept industry secrets to success tightly to themselves - until now. Here's a book for any looking to become involved in the music industry and for business pros seeking an edge: from ads and promotion to managing performers, gaining publicity and venue staffing, here are all the keys to industry success and the secrets which fuel such successes.
A Music Business "Must Have"
Finally there's a book that gives a complete and current look at the inner workings of the concert business. Barnet, Berry, and Waddell have filled a void - no, make that a chasm - of reliable, contemporary guidance to those either in or considering earning from the concerts and touring industry. The concert business requires as much planning and risk management as any enterprise, and This Business of Concert Promotion and Touring gives the tools and guidance to avoid the quicksand. My resume includes concert production and promotion but my personal library now includes this book. Thanks Rich, Jake, and Ray.
