MusicBizAdvice.com announced a mutual promotion arrangement this week that puts its popular monthly “This Month in Music History” feature on display at the Hard Rock Café Surfers Paradise.
“When they approached us, we were ecstatic,” says MusicBizAdvice.com Founder and Editor-in-Chief Randi Reed. “When I was a teenager dreaming of working in the music industry, I used to go to the Hard Rock Café to look at the memorabilia. Now we’re in one of them. It’s very surreal, when you think about it. That’s for rock stars, not suits! We’re very honored to be part of it, and excited to be associated with a brand as well-respected as the Hard Rock Café.”
Starting with the current November edition, MusicBizAdvice.com’s This Month in Music History feature is displayed at the entrance of the Queensland, Australia location for Hard Rock Café patrons to peruse while waiting for their tables. Says Reed, “Having part of our content displayed at the Hard Rock Cafe is a great way to introduce music fans to a music industry website they might not know about otherwise. Just like the Café does with memorabilia from rock stars, it brings us closer to music fans. It’s a good match, and we couldn’t have asked for a better location. We look forward to a long association with the Hard Rock Café.”

Depak Chopra. Every self-help author uses Haanel’s ideas. Most never give him any credit. It’s even been rumored that Bill Gates read The Master Key System! I guess that’s pretty influential.

When Joy Rose, founder and lead singer of the all-female band Housewives on Prozac was diagnosed with lupus in 1994, which subsequently led to a kidney transplant, the New York suburban mother of four knew it was time for a radical change. As a former singer and performer in the 1980’s, Rose always knew music was her passion. More than a decade later, music would become her saving grace that helped heal her body, mind and spirit. It was during her grave illness, while caring for four young children that Rose had an epiphany -- music was to be the creative outlet she was desperately seeking. Rose thought if she was feeling like this, there must be other women feeling a certain amount of desperation as well in their own lives.
