behindblueeyez Posted December 4, 2004 Report Posted December 4, 2004 What kind of jobs are out there that involve working with/around classic rock/rock and roll? We've got to do a paper on jobs that we'd like to do... so, any ideas? Other than becoming a rock star, of course, which I could never do!
_jr_ Posted December 4, 2004 Report Posted December 4, 2004 Obviously, there's the DJ. But even that, in the classic sense of the word, rarely exsists. They're just personalities with the music all programmed out for them. They never comment on how good a song is, or anything like that. Studio musician is the gig i'd want.
Earth-Angel Posted December 4, 2004 Report Posted December 4, 2004 Music journalist, PR consultants, Tour organisers And of course you could be a rock star!
Aunt_Acid Posted December 4, 2004 Report Posted December 4, 2004 I would write about being a musician. Not like a little wedding band or something, but like a band that makes it big. Something you could live comfortably off.
windy1 Posted December 4, 2004 Report Posted December 4, 2004 ask edna she'll know. she was a music journalist
SoulGirl Posted December 5, 2004 Report Posted December 5, 2004 i'd *love* to be a rockstar!! it really is my dream. i'm just too lazy to even try and make it happen! but when i try to imagine myself doing any other job.... i can't visualise a thing! as wonderboy and nastyman (and our very own tenacious peaches's sig) would say 'it's destiny'
Kevin Posted December 5, 2004 Report Posted December 5, 2004 Roadie, groupie (if your 'interesting' enough), unofficial (fairy-tale teller) biographer, limosine driver, bodyguard, 'friend' ( try and find one down and out for this as it's easier), agent, promoter, memorabillia seller, 'where -are -they-now ?" documentarian, ... the world's your oyster, blueeyes , enjoy!
edna Posted December 5, 2004 Report Posted December 5, 2004 Windy is right, ask me! Well, I guess you already have all the answers... working in a record company is not bad... writing about rock music is great, it changes your life, you´re part of the whole thing and you make amazing friends!
Jillianne Posted December 5, 2004 Report Posted December 5, 2004 I'm gonna be a rockstar! I'll dance in my tutu too and pointes, yeh, I'll start a trend!
edna Posted December 5, 2004 Report Posted December 5, 2004 That would be really wild, Jill! Please, do it! And all the songfactors gang will be there for an authograph!
Danielj Posted December 5, 2004 Report Posted December 5, 2004 Yeah, I could definetly picture your face with that avvy. I would want to be either a studio guitarist, a rockstar of cours or a DJ I would soo love to be a DJ
Endymion Posted December 5, 2004 Report Posted December 5, 2004 I have a friend who teaches classic rock at the University of Cincinnati: Cliff Adams
Tenacious_Peaches Posted December 6, 2004 Report Posted December 6, 2004 Endymion is cool, isn't he? He flies under the radar, but I think he is an undercover rock star!
Jillianne Posted December 6, 2004 Report Posted December 6, 2004 No, peachy, I think you're the undercover one! Go on just admit it Jack!
Tenacious_Peaches Posted December 6, 2004 Report Posted December 6, 2004 Jillianne, I do kick extreme amounts of ass, but I will never rock as hard as Jack.
Tenacious_Peaches Posted December 6, 2004 Report Posted December 6, 2004 Damn it, she caught me... ::
