Music Business Degree...
Q: anyone know what the hell I could do with one of these? or would this not
help me get a job at all...
A:My friend Randy goes to Music Tech for Music Buisness. If you're into the
stuff I think you're into you would not enjoy music buisness. If the sound
and motion or music production areas at music tech don't interest you, you
should check out MCAD. I have a couple other friends that go there and they
really enjoy it. My friend Mitchell goes there for movie production (?) I
think. The movies that he made this year during the school year were
awesome. I'd definitely check it out if you're into that kinda stuff.
You could manage, promote, or otherwise help market bands. You don't
*need* a degree to do this, but you're more likely to get a successful,
paid position with the degree.
You could even, with tremendous luck and asskissing, get a job with one
of the big record labels.
a friend studied Music Business in New York, and had a job with Sony.
Back home, in the Netherlands, he worked with Sony/Epic again, and now
he works at Universal, I've heard.
So, apart from it being a fantastic way to be a student, you can get a
job with it as well :)
I wish I had known about it years ago. Now i did law, and i don't know
what kind of job I would like...
