The updated version of this book is great! This book has taken a look at publicity, touring, contracts, branding, marketing, trademarks, merchandising, and record companies. Unlike the previous editions of this book, this book goes into music downloading and it's consequences. This book is a must have for anyone looking at music management or performance!

Well thought out and informative, this book would be the perfect band management book if not for the distracting typos laced throughout its text.
The author has done his job well, but the editor dropped the ball on the basic editing and proofing chores.
Still, I'd recommend this book to anyone who was about to test the waters of band management and the music industry as a whole. It's very thorough, yet easy to understand.

I have pretty much purchased and read many books sold online or in print regarding the music industry and its working components. Dr Marcone has condensed all of those books(30+) into this highly illsutrative book. I would dear say he's giving away trade secrets. Any aspiring artist manager should meditate on it as it covers the multiple working acitivties needed to make an artist/band successful in this industry.
