Take the “R” out of “brand”…

Show Biz

…And you have a bit of truth pertaining to bands. From Seth Godin’s blog “Brand Exceptionalism”: Brand humility is the only response to a fast-changing and competitive marketplace. The humble brand understands that it needs to re-earn attention, re-earn loyalty and reconnect with its audience as if every day is the first day. Read the [...]

Should your band have a backdrop?

Show Biz

The answer is always, YES!  Especially if you are an opening act.  I can’t tell you how many times I’ve walked in while a band was playing and thought, “Hmm, I wonder what this band is called.  They’re kind of good.”  Then forgot about them because they probably announced who they were at the beginning [...]

Taylor Momsen: The Wild One

Power Grrls

She is fearless…  Or so she’d like you to think.  (No Swift pun intended.)  It’s like she took one look at Miley and said, you think you’re jail-bait?  I’ll show you jail-bait!  In a time where parents are constantly complaining about teen stars being too sexy or too this or that and sending their kids [...]

Britney Spears has a new single?

Show Biz

Oh yes.  Out of the darkness, Britney Spears released a single titled “Hold It Against Me” and breaks multiple records selling 411,000 in digital single sales in it’s first week.  This shatters the record for first week sales by a female artist that was previously held by Taylor Swift.  She also became the second female [...]

Paramore Split Controversy

Show Biz

Apparently Paramore does not exercise the “keep your mouth shut and it will go away” strategy and has been blabbing on the internet and various media outlets trying to defend themselves.  It is understandable that Josh and Zac Farro would want the entire Paramore story to be out in the open rather than just saying [...]

Top 5 of 2010

Albums Hole – Nodoby’s Daughter Courtney Love and “Hole” (with no other original members) managed to release this album in April after a bit of legal issues with using the name “Hole.”  The raw vocals combined with dark and honest lyrics make this a great Hole album.

The anatomy of a Taylor Swift

Show Biz

Don’t get too excited pervs, this is about her career!  Yes, I am also sick and tired of seeing and hearing this person everywhere I go, but I can’t help but wonder how it got to be this way.  The girl can get away with anything.  She got away with blabbing to anyone who would [...]

Facebook to own the internet (if it doesn’t already)

Show Biz

Pretty much every website, news article,  or band  you check out has a “Like” button.  Some of my Facebook friends will “Like” 100′s of activities, bands, articles, websites, and various objects every day.  This allows you to share things you like to your friends and also enables you to show your personality through things you [...]

The plague of political correctness

Show Biz

It’s getting pretty hard to say anything without offending someone these days.  There is so much taboo on words and ideas in public even though they are used by the average person in casual conversation. examples of this ridiculous behavior: Jennifer Aniston says “she felt like a retard.”  So, what was the idea she was [...]
