The Austin Music Society

About Me

Austin is the LIVE music capital of the world and we intend to keep it that way!Join the Austin Music Society by making us your friend here on MySpace.com We welcome musicians from all walks of life. We promote those that live here in the Austin area, but all are welcome to participate in discussions, events, and contests. ************************************************************ ******Are you a musician that lives in or around Austin Texas? We’d love to know more about you, your show schedule, and any news you might want to share with us. ************************************************************ ******We are not out to make money, rip off anyone, nor make anyone look bad. We are, however, here to help preserve the Austin Music Scene by providing a place where fan and musician alike can come and talk, show off their new music and turn more listeners into faithful fans. ************************************************************ ******What’s better than a little FREE self-promotion anyway? If you have an event coming up or represent someone who does, please post it on our comments section. ************************************************************ ******Look for Austin Music Society crew members around town; they’re the ones in the white t-shirts with the AMS logo on the front. These people have a variety of skills and are out in the “field” to collect pictures and stories on the great bands and singers that play in and around the Austin area, so don’t be shy next time someone says “Say Cheese!”, you might be the next Featured Artist of the Month here on the AMS myspace page. ************************************************************ ******Always looking for volunteers that want to join the AMS Crew. Those that are selected will be given a free T-shirt, AMS Press Pass and an AMS ID Card. Email us at: [email protected] if you’re interested in volunteering. ************************************************************ ******Are you a Venue that is having a Music event that requires a cover to get in? If you will give AMS ID Card carrying members a discount at the door we’ll be glad to list a profile of your Venue. The Profile will contain: Genres of music preformed, a brief description about you, a link to your website, your physical address and contact information. We will also place a link to your site on our AMS Crew myspace private site. All participating Venues will also be listed in our monthly newsletter. If you are interested in letting AMS Crew members in at a discount, please email us at: [email protected] ************************************************************ ******Keep Austin Live! *********************************************************** ***********************************************************M y World Visitor Map!

Movies:

ACL was fun! Great job for everyone that played and not to play favorites, but I really enjoyed the too short performance by the Black and White Years and the Band of Heathens. I personally was sad to not get to see the whole three days due to a family emergency, but from all the AMS members I've heard from, everyone really enjoyed the music and cooler weather.A few of us have been talking a little and are currently working on a project that we think will greatly benefit Austin musicians. I'll fill you in on the project when all is final, but it is a good, solid blessing in disguise.
