Hit Makers '91
The LASC's November Songwriting Seminar, Hit Makers '91, is on line and on schedule. Once again, we've arranged for many music industry folks to come to town and listen to your original material, as well as tell you what they're looking for. We've added a pitching session to the other activities, so you can have your chance to pitch that tune to a publisher. Here are the details:
The Seminar is scheduled for November 8 & 9, at the Holiday Inn South, 3317 Fern Valley, Louisville, KY 40213. Rates for the Seminar are as follows:
Total Package (Seminar, Showcase, and Awards Banquet)
Members $4500
Non-members $5500
Partials (members and non-members)
Seminar only $3500
Banquet only $1500
Showcase $500
New ProgramAdditions
This year, in addition to "light" education, music business sessions, and song critiques, we've added a pitching session. Now's your chance to toss a tune directly at a publisher and see how you fare.
