Thanks for putting BandCamp together, I think it was a big hit. It was good to see musicians there who were serious about not only their craft but about the business of music.

Cause honestly, to augment a tired old cliche – if you make a great record and no one hears it, did you really make it?

Thanks for the comment on BandCamp, wew’ve been hearing many positive outlooks as a result of the event. New ideas for musical artists are streaming in and will help shape the future events to give people the tools to achieve their goals or just to be more educated in the world of music.

Hope to see you at the November 2nd event.

I am nothing but grateful to all who are putting this together. It’s the most positive development I’ve seen on the Houston music scene ever. BandCamp is providing real ideas and encouraging the development of skills that will serve the campers throughout their careers.

I got far more than I expected out of BandCamp, probably because I am not looking for a silver bullet to fix everything.

So many musicians think if only they had the right manager, the right venue, put their music into the right hands (God forbid–won American Idol), everything will magically fall into place.

Music is transcendent but it’s also a business and, even if you achieve superstardom it’s still hard work to sustain a proper career.
