The Guild, March 30: Watch them work!

Are you making music you're proud of - or music that sells? Does your band make decisions democratically, or via the tyrannical-front-man method? And just how DO you explain that great sound you've been hearing in your head?

Next week, watch someone else figure all that out for a change.

At Monday's meeting of the Guild, I'll be showing a favorite rock documentary of mine. It's great footage of a great band recording a great album - but even better, it's a great conversation starter. This film (no, I'm not telling you which one) is one of the classic modern-day stories about what happens when art and commerce collide. I'm looking forward to some great discussions afterward - so don't plan on rolling when the credits do.

As always, the Guild kicks off with drinks and snacks at 7:30pm. The coffee's on me, but if you want to bring something else to eat or drink - popcorn, perhaps? - you'll be a rock star among rock stars.

I'll be starting our film at about 8pm to make sure there's plenty of time for discussion afterward, so don't be late if you want to know what all the buzz is about afterward. See you Monday!
