Terry Woodford: COMBO’s guest speaker on April 8th – See “Events”
“We were musicians and not business people. We got burned like so many of our peers in those days,” [Rose] Hamlin wrote … COMBO is about the “Business of Music.” Our mission is to assist musicians with the issues they need to know so our articles represent some phase of music business that effects musicians everywhere. Colorado Musicians need this info in order to advance their own careers!

A COMBO Member has contacted us about needing help selling a ton of band equipment. Her husband recently passed away unexpectedly. She mostly has “accessories” (no full P.A. but does have a 100 ft. snake), and a “home-recording studio set up”. If you are interested in finding out what she has, please send an e-mail to info @ Colorado music.org with “Band Equipment” in the subject line with a contact telephone number for you. Thank you.
