New networks for musicians in the Midlands

Musicians and others from across the music business will be able to benefit from a series of networking opportunities taking place across the Midlands.  Running since September and going through until August 2009, the Musicians’ Union is hosting Network: Musician. 
 
The free events hope to bring together diverse people working in music from across the local scene.  Whether they work in performing, teaching or songwriting or own a record company or studio or are part of a funding and support organisation, it is expected that many will benefit from attendance at the network.  Music practitioners and businesses can come along and seek advice, ask questions, make announcements, look for connections or just attend to see what others are up to.
 
The event takes place quarterly in Stoke-on-Trent, Derby, Leicester, Nottingham, Lincoln and Stratford-on-Avon.  Network: Musician is free and refreshments are provided.  Each meeting starts at 4pm.
 
The dates of the first meetings are as follows:

Tuesday 2nd December – Stoke College, Burslem, Moorland Road, Stoke-on-Trent
Wednesday 10th December – The Musician Pub, Clyde Street, Leicester
Wednesday 14th January – Confetti Studios, Covent Street, Nottingham
Tuesday 20th January – Cox’s Yard, Bridgefoot, Stratford-on-Avon
Tuesday 3rd February – The Flowerpot, King Street, Derby
Wednesday 18th February – The Drill Hall, Freeschool Lane, Lincoln

Get your Gigs Listed easily in National Press and Listings




Ents24.com Launches New Discovery Network for Live Entertainment Fans.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Monday 3rd November 2008 


Want to know how good a band is before you shell out your hard earned cash on tickets? Ever been lost at a new venue trying to find somewhere to park or wondered about the best bar to grab a drink at before a gig? Well, Ents24's entertainment discovery network, 'Have Your Say' may just be the answer. Powered completely by fans' contributions, the new section of the UK's largest guide to live entertainment enables readers to share local tips, reviews and recommendations on any of the hundreds of thousands of venues, attractions or artists listed on site.

With the sole aim to enrich the experience of all lovers of live entertainment, Commercial Director, Tim Gillions is excited about bringing this new tool to gig goers everywhere.

"We recognise that every visitor to Ents24 is an entertainment expert in their own right, whether that's on their favourite band, venue or local area. However, until 'Have Your Say', it seemed there was no 'knowledge centre' that bought together comprehensive entertainment listings, trusted ticket links and coherent, informative tips and recommendations from fans and readers. There was a definite lack of in-depth information and insider knowledge for people looking to improve their entertainment experience and it makes sense for us to combine our listings with the expertise of our users to provide a single destination for entertainment discovery. In fact, soon it'll be hard to remember how you ever booked a good night out without it!" 

Launched to a closed user group two weeks ago, thousands of fans have already got involved. Ents24 will officially launch 'Have Your Say' to the public on the 10th November and given its popularity so far, the network is set to grow rapidly as people look to improve their entertainment experience. Previews of the new discovery network are available on http://www.ents24.com/preview this week, so what are you waiting for? Visit now, browse the site and be amongst the first to 'Have Your Say' on what could be the next big thing in the live entertainment and ticketing industry.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For further information please contact: Adele Taylor 
(t) 0117 325 0232 (e) adele.taylor@ents24.com  (f) 0117 973 0152 

Ents24.com is the UK's largest entertainment listings website, delivering comprehensive listings for live music, comedy, theatre and cinema since 1999 and launched 'Days Out' in 2008. The website currently attracts over one million unique monthly readers and provides users with the unique ability to narrow their entertainment search by postcode, genre, artist or venue preferences. Working with all the top online ticket companies, Ents24 also provides access to the widest selection of available tickets all in one place.  
 
'Have Your Say' is a unique discovery network where anyone can interact with others and leave recommendations, reviews and tips on any of the hundreds or thousands of venues, artists or attractions onsite. Launching in November 2008, the aim of the network is to enrich the experience of the Ents24 user and aid in live entertainment discovery so everyone can enjoy a great night or day out.

Forget A or Not A

Ok my answer to Andrew Dubber's “Is it more important that music businesses make money, or is it more important that culture expands, innovates and grows?”

I'm off the rails here by a long way, again, but Andrew sparked off a thought that reminded me of something that may be interesting to share. Forget the original question...here's a thought for the day.

First of all forget the concept of IT IS EITHER A or NOT A

second try Quantum Physics http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=f1NmMJ25bTY

Any model we make does not describe the universe it describes what our brains are capable of saying at this time. All perception is gamble. We believe what we see and then we believe our interpretation of it we dont even know we’re making an interpretation most of the time.
