The people on the business side in the music business are kind of different from the theatre business. I think it's partly because there are different pressures on the industries.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
There just is exponentially more money in the movie business than in the music business. As a result there are more people involved in the creative process.
Being in the music business is a totally different industry right there.
Music and the music business are two different things.
It costs a great deal of money to do a musical, and the more money involved, the more big business influences the artform.
There's much more money being brought into the advertising and communications business than in the music industry.
The 'music industry' is not a term I use. I tend to concentrate on music, and the music business is something different.
Unfortunately, music devolved instead of evolved. The music business got into the hands of lawyers and accountants rather than the entrepreneurial creative people, and that's when the beginning of the end started. It's all based on money instead of art and creativity.
I have known from the beginning one thing you need to know. That is, the music business is a business.
I think in certain areas the demand is greater than it has ever been, and my business is better than it's been in 30 years. The music business is so precarious, as you know-you've got to make it while you can make it, and that's exactly what we're doing.
All music industry places are the same, really. They have the same dynamics and the same concerns and the same needs.
