As 85 million, music-worshipping "echo boomers" head for college over the next decade, nothing will be more essential than Schools That Rock: The Rolling Stone College Guide. Here, college-bound kids will find information on which towns and campuses offer top-notch venues, record stores, radio stations, and music festivals. In addition, entries will refer readers to schools that offer courses or degrees in music and the music business. They will learn about Syracuse University’s new class on the lyrics of Lil’ Kim, Middle Tennessee State University’s recording business department, and Case Western Reserve’s audio engineering concentration. Smart, humorous, and highly informative, Schools That Rock is the must-have college guide for the portable-audio generation.

This review is from: Schools That Rock: The Rolling Stone College Guide (Paperback)
This book is great for anyone involved in music. Every college listed contains information on places to play your music nearby. Some colleges could use a bit more information, but overall I really enjoy using this as a resource for getting my music heard.
