"Direction of the Touring Industry"
According to Rolling Stone and other sources concert ticket s me sad, so why not do something about it and learn a little from the experts.Panelists will discuss "artists, managers, agents and promoters on the dynamics that include the conglomeration of promoters, venues, record companies and ticketing organizations as well as discussion of the state of independent promoters along with 360 deals, new ticketing and music dis
tribution sources." I wonder how much time they have because that is a lot of information. I hope they have time for it all!
"Packaging the Experience: Attract Audiences to Your Records"
I recently read that vinyl sales have increased
(by no means a large amount, but the fact is exciting to some). This panel will discuss physical albums vs. virtual and what artists can do to get consumers back to CDs and vinyl. For example, how can artists put the experience of their band into one small package? On that note, I read an article on a musician that records every performance and sells it on a flash drive after the show. It is always interesting to see where music is going next...
