RockDex on the Road
Hey, it’s no Omaha, but New York during the yearly CMJ Music Marathon and Film Festival can get pretty magical. And hectic. The event brings thousands of music professionals and hundreds of bands to the Big Apple to rock and talk about the industry’s future, something we’re of course very invested in at RockDex.
Jimmy and Shannon from RockDex and Music Arsenal will be in the city Tuesday through Sunday to meet with people one on one about RockDex, and they’d love to hear from you. Shoot them an e-mail at jimmy@musicarsenal.com or shannon@musicarsenal.com or call our office at 818-303-3161. (By the way, if you’re having trouble putting together a bandwatching schedule for the week, guess who’s got an app for that?)
On Thursday at Soho House, Shannon will be participating in a NARM Salon panel discussion titled What Gets Measured Gets Managed: Experts Discuss Metrics and Measurement of Music 2.0. The NARM site is reporting that in-person attendance for the Salon has reached capacity, which is great for us, but not so swell for anyone who hasn’t registered. Fortunately, they’ll be doing a webcast, which you can register for here.

And it’s not over with CMJ. After he’s recovered from NYC, Jimmy’s heading down to Gainsville, Florida, for the The FEST 8. It’s sorta like a three-day SXSW for punks and indiekids from all over. Spanning Halloween weekend (Oct. 30 – Nov. 1), it should be a good time. Jimmy will be available for meetings and/or vampire slayings.
Closer to home, David is taking his RockDex knowhow to Highlight Midwest this Friday, October 23, in Des Moines. You can reach him at @musicarsenal.
Lots of exciting things! Please get in touch if you'd like to talk.
