I have a book that sits proudly in my library. It is a signed copy of "Networking in the Music Industry" given to me almost ten years ago by co-author Eric Olsen. The book is a wonderful collection of information and advice from music industry notables including Moby, Brett Gurewitz, Greg Ginn, Bob Guccione, Jr., Howie Klein and Chris Douridas.

At first I wasn't sure what to say or what I should blog but Eric told me to keep on doing what I'm already doing on the various email lists I've co-founded including the Pho List, Strangelove.cc and [unwired].
