Burbank, CA 11/19/2004—MusicBizAdvice.com
announced a mutual promotion arrangement this week that puts its popular
monthly “This Month in Music History” feature on display at the Hard Rock
Café Surfers Paradise.
“When they approached us, we were ecstatic,” says MusicBizAdvice.com Founder
and Editor-in-Chief Randi Reed. “When I was a teenager dreaming of working
in the music industry, I used to go to the Hard Rock Café to look at the
memorabilia. Now we’re in one of them. It’s very surreal, when you think
about it. That’s for rock stars, not suits! We’re very honored to be part of
it, and excited to be associated with a brand as well-respected as the Hard
Rock Café.”
Starting with the current November edition, MusicBizAdvice.com’s This
Month in Music History feature is displayed at the entrance of the
Queensland, Australia location for Hard Rock Café patrons to peruse while
waiting for their tables. Says Reed, “Having part of our content displayed
at the Hard Rock Cafe is a great way to introduce music fans to a music
industry website they might not know about otherwise. Just like the Café
does with memorabilia from rock stars, it brings us closer to music fans.
It’s a good match, and we couldn’t have asked for a better location. We look
forward to a long association with the Hard Rock Café.”
