This is a portal for people who look at music as a business, for industry folk and aspiring artists alike, to present and discuss the way things work in the biz. It's not about the stars, it's about the promoters, producers, handlers, lawyers, business execs. It's about old models and new models for selling, diseminating, packaging, handling music.

Have no doubt, the music business is changing, rapidly. And everyone is scrambling. In this portal you can discuss where it's going and where it should go. Follow the trends or set them.

Get Your Shopping Groove On!! Check Out Sample Sales Hitting LA!!

You know there are tons of sample sales online now-- including Ideeli, Glamlist, Regents Secret, Haute Look Top Secret and lots more. The biggest issue is that some require referrals to join, others have extremely limited return policies but the biggest thing is 1) that you can't try it on immediately and 2) these sales sell out fast. saturdaysaletopright.jpg Photo Courtesy of BargainsLA.com What's a girl to do for bargain-shopping? 1) Read this blog (duh) 2) Subscribe to Bargainsla.com newsletter to get weekly (and even bi-weekly) updates on what's on sale in your area in all kinds of shopping categories from fashion to furniture. 3) Be on the look-out for various newsletters that list sample sales like Daily Candy, Tipjar.com, Julib.com and more.
