Group Illegal Pete's

Photo: Some of the gang at Illegal Pete’s! || THREE MORE DAYS! Don’t forget COMBO’s Songwriting Contest ends August 1st at 11:59 p.m. Enter now! || We had a super/supper time at Illegal Pete’s on Monday! Lots of good company, food, and drinks. The weather was about as perfect as it could get! We visited with each other, getting to know some more about our board and about the members who attended and about ideas for the coming year for COMBO to present. We’ve had some great speakers this past year including Chuck Morris (concert promotion), Nigel Dick (videos), Tony Mason (band booking), and Chris K (getting radio airplay).
.
Stay tuned! And, of course, if you have a suggestion for a program – or have questions about the “business of music,” please feel free to send us an e-mail at info@coloradomusic.org. We’ll respond as soon as we can. Remember: Everyone who “works” for COMBO is a volunteer and we have “day jobs” as well as families to have to tend to as well.
.
COMBO is about the LOVE of Music. Our mission is to assist musicians with the ins & outs of the business of music. We have a board of dedicated and knowledgeable musicians and others in the Music Industry. We offer guidance and advice to help musicians advance their careers whether it be in writing, performing, teaching, or recording and sound engineering! Our articles and programs represent some phase of the music business that could effect musicians – all musicians – everywhere. Our motto: Elevate Your Musical State!
