| The Musicians Road Map to Fame: Getting a Record Deal! - Associated Content Posted: 26 Aug 2010 08:43 PM PDT Recording Artists and Bands put in hundreds, if not thousands of man hours, honing their craft! Many of which spend a small fortune on lessons, studio equipment, promotions and instruments. As a musician, ask yourself,  In this Article called the "The Musician Road Map to Fame" I will try to assist you in doing both. Keep in mind, my friend, these are just my observations. Nothing more, nothing less! Also understand that a bit of reverse engineering was used by me to come up with this "Road Map." By taking famous artists and tracing them back to the beginnings of their musical journey, you can get a glimpse of what shot them off into the stratosphere. A pattern emerges, a pattern that can be used by anyone to follow and duplicate their success. This guide if for Songwriters, Producers, Singers...Just about anybody looking to make their mark in the Music Industry. let's begin! So you've got talent...For singing, playing piano or performing. The world should take note? You should promote your wares night and day? Your on your way to super stardom right? Well that depends!! That depends on your songs!! Can you name a Michael Jackson song? Green Day song? Snoop Dogg song? Without a doubt...Yes, you can! No matter your age, race or musical tastes you can name at least one song from each of these artists. So this is where reverse engineering comes into play. Did they become famous first...Then start making great songs...NO! The songs came first. Then the fame followed!! Get this is your head and heart. The key to getting a record deal, fame or just making a living with music, as an artist, is directly connected to how great your songs are!!

| A Guide for the Maid of Honor: How to Throw a Bridal Shower - Associated Content Posted: 26 Aug 2010 05:44 PM PDT Have you been selected to play the role of Maid of Honor for your friend's wedding? The Maid of Honor plays a more significant part than you may think. It requires participation and mingling with friends of friends  Choosing a place to host a party may or may not be an easy task. Places to consider could be complex's clubhouse, hotel reception rooms and meeting rooms to rent out for a day. It is always helpful to comparison shop locally. Once narrowing down to a few places, run the ideas by bride and ask for a set date and time to book in advance when reaching a final decision. Next step: ask the bride to organize a list of names and addresses of guests attending to invite. You can find cheap invitations at the dollar store. Its good to send the invitations out in a month's time advance and set an RSVP date. Make sure to include a map of where the event is held with gift registry cards. You can brainstorm ideas with the bride on ideas of what to have for refreshments. You may choose catering or pizza delivery / take out nearby, in any case...Book in advance!! Have an alternative idea if original idea / arrangement doesn't work out. Also check if any of the guests have a special diet, i.e. vegetarian, kosher, have food allergies. For entertainment, bridal shower games are great to involve all the bride's guests. Here's a list of bridal shower games and brief descriptions of each you may choose to use at the shower: Famous TV Couples Write down the names of matching famous T.V. couples. You have only about 5 minutes to guess the names. Then we can read the first names and the T.V. show that they were from. Whoever gets the most wins the game.
