MTVU Woodies
This is one of my favorite award shows to attend/work. The mood isn't as stressed and serious as the others. This year I had Asher Roth and Pac Div on the show as presenters. Kid Cudi was originally scheduled to perform with Passion Pit but there were some issues we couldn't control. After each show they throw a great party with lots of food, drinks, and music. I got a chance to hang out with Ross Martin(Mr. MTV extraordinaire)who has a blog of his own. Always good to get some blog love, check it out here...
Reni Lane / VH1
It's been way too long since my last post. Everything has been a whirlwind, can't believe it's already Christmas. Now that I have some time during the holidays I'm going to catch you up to speed.
Just recently I put together a licensing deal with a great new artist Reni Lane and VH1. Her album, Ready is scheduled to come out in early 2010. The single that VH1 is licensing is called "Place For Us" to use as a theme song for a new reality show series. The show, looks like it could rate well because it follows in the path of The Real Houswives, The Hills, etc. This one is actually set in a town I never think about until somebody mentions skiiing. "Secrets of Aspen" series premieres Jan 3, 2010 make sure to tune in early to hear the song! Here's a supertrailer for the series with Reni's song starting around 2:50 mark.

Tina Parol
New artist on my label who I'm currently digging. Kind of like Pink meets Avril Lavigne, we recently did some interviews and meetings at MTV and this is one of the things we did...

Bar 675
Can't say that I've been yet but my buddy Andrew Wintner just opened a bar for BR Guest called 675. Apparently it had a seedy past but it looks like a lot of fun to just hang with your crew after a day of BS...

Chamilitary man... Was an easy shoot. The man knows his *ish and have respect for his business acumen.
Wayne came out and killed it @ MTV Spring Break... I've never seen a crowd like this. People in boats, on rooftops, balconies, I even saw a few women faint and get carried off.
The biggest crowd I've ever seen at MTV Spring Break (they were there for Wayne). Cudi had a great time and have to say the crowd was feeling him, especially for only have one single that people knew.
I've spent hours playing on this site, if you have the time check it out:

Only a matter of time before the music industry here follows suit. China has always been ahead of us technologically. I wonder if ad revenue will be as significant as music sales.

WWGD? - What Would Google Do?
I only started reading this book and it's blowing my mind! I've been reading everything to help me reshape everything I've learned in school and business but this one takes the cake. I'm only 70 pages deep into it and I'm incredibly inspired by it. This has actually been one of the few books to do this for me. Highly recommend you buy/borrow it. Jeff Jarvis I'm a fan now...
Possibly one of the greatest sitcoms of all time...
FRASIER, 11 seasons of high brow humor. Name another spin-off that won 37 Emmy Awards and actually lasted as long as it's predecessor. My DVR is backlogged with all the repeats airing on Lifetime right now. Right now I'm thinking it sounds really fun to call in sick tomorrow and watch all 77 episodes in the queue.
