Full Sail - Real World Education- Recording and Mixing. Live Sound. Careers.  We received an ad recently and thought it would be of interest to many indie musicians  or local bands in general.  Basically there is a College in Winter Park Florida named Full Sail and they offer accredited college courses on Recording Arts, Show Production & Touring, Film, Game Design, and the Entertainment Business in general.    I wish I had known about schools of this nature when I was looking for colleges.  Seems pretty interesting. Check out the link to their site above.

Book Review - The Indie Bible "6th Edition - We have just reviewed 6th edition of the Indie Bible.   This in depth music resource book contains valuable information for indie musicians in search of outlets for their music.  The Indie Bible contains over 4000 music industry resources for bands to submit their CD for review, and over 3000 radio stations that may give your indie music some much needed airplay.  Each resource listing includes specific information including genre of music the company prefers, or services provided by the resource.   Contained within are numerous music resources for bands including sites that will upload MP3's, and music resources that give much needed indie music advice.  The text not only has North American indie music resources, but also lists resources from other countries including Europe and Australia.  The Indie Bible covers legal aspects like copywright, royalty, and trademark information that indie musicians need to know.  The most interesting information this book provides is to the songwriter or artist.  This book is written from the musicians perspective and has the tools to help you take charge of your own music promotion, press kits, web site basics, and most importantly your music career.  We found the Indie Bible 6th Edition to be a wealth of information and a must have for indie musicians of all genres.  To find out more information or to buy the Indie Bible 6th Edition just click here.

In celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Fender Stratocaster, some famous guitarists played a for charity event in England.  The concert in Wembley Stadium featured Ron Wood (Rolling Stones),  Joe Walsh (of The Eagles), and Brian May (of Queen).  The highlight of the evening was when David Gilmour of Pink Floyd stepped on stage with his Fender Serial number 001 Strat.  David Gilmour owns the first Fender Stratocaster ever made.  Pretty great to see the first ever fender strat made, actually played 50 years later.  Check out the music article.

Well, Eddie Van Halen is at it again.  He has joined up with Charvel and developed some new geetars.  Well, new ones with an old school flavor.   If your a Van Halen fan like me, your remember all his red, white, and black striped guitars on Van Halen I, or his black and yellow striped one on Van Halen II and thereafter.  Eddie is now auctioning a number his new Art Series Charvel's on ebay.  A limited number are autographed and hand striped by Eddie himself on will be auctioned on ebay.   Also, in the near future, the retail versions of these guitars should be available in your local music stores.   Visit Charvel to see pics.  Very cool...

CD Review - Alter Bridge   Well we picked up the new Alter Bridge CD.  Alter Bridge as you probably know is the former members of Creed along with a new singer Miles Kennedy.  We were expecting the Creed sound with a new singer, but got so much more.  The songs are heavier with a few exceptions than Creed's old CD's, and Tremonti is playing quite a few solo's.  And they are played well.  I may have even heard some fingertaps in one of the solo's in song 4.  The heavy songs on this album are amazing and really make the CD standout.   We give it a 4.5 out of 5 stars.
