Ultimate Record Label Course Shows Musicians How to Start Their Own Successful Record Label
Bridgeport, CT (ContentDesk) February 6, 2006 -- Author Ty Cohen has made it his personal goal to help as many singers, musicians and aspiring record label owners as he possibly can to move one step closer to achieving their dream of succeeding in the music business.

The "Memory" Collector
The "Memory" CollectorEveryone collects something right? It may be baseball cards, hats, or some other type of sports memorabilia. Even if you don't consider yourself a collector of anything, you may be and don't even know it. How about the collection of tools in the cellar you don't really use, but you have to have them! Even maybe all those movies laying around you no longer watch, sounds like a collection to me.More common items people typically collect are things like, coins, military items, guns, and sports items. Generally it will be something that once interested a person, had an impact on their lives or they just simply enjoyed. Me, I am a collector of shot glasses.
What it was that spawned the interest is beyond me, I think it may have started in college. I now have a collection of over 300 shot glasses, and yes, I have had at least 1 shot of some type of a concoction from each one of them. Looking at them now, they are reminders of places I have been, and things I have...
