So one of my favorite crazy friends is coming to town next week! He happens to be the one and only Martin Atkins (Pigface/Nine Inch Nails/Ministry/PiL/Damage Manual/etc.-fame), who put out the Tour:Smart book I contributed to a while back.
If you are in the Los Angeles area, please come out this coming Tuesday, March 24th at Book Soup:
“If you think you’re screwed, you’re not. If you don’t think you’re screwed, you most certainly are.”
-Martin Atkins
These zen-like words of wisdom come from one of the music and art industry’s most outspoken contributors, Martin Atkins. For over three decades Martin has been at the cutting edge of where the entertainment industry is and where it’s headed, whether through his work with Johnny Rotten’s band, Public Image Limited, playing with Nine Inch Nails, Touring the world with his own band Pigface, or working with Beijing’s emerging Indie Rock scene.
Martin provides unique insight into the way the music business works from the inside out. His proven strategies cover topics ranging from music production to screen printing to touring to publishing to packaging and manufacturing.
Agenda will cover:
- State of industry
- Why you must book yourself
- Marketing
- Packaging
- Questions from the audience
Here’s a preview of just one strategy you’ll learn about at this FREE seminar:
