This is part four in the ongoing guest Amoeblog series with Dave Paul called How I Got Here that has already featured interviews/profiles on Robbie Kowal of SunsetSF promotions company, Michael Krouse of the Madrone Art Bar in San Francisco, and Dave Paul himself. The series profiles various folks in the entertainment industry ranging from doormen, DJ’s and promoters to venue owners and others. Upcoming interviews will include Nic Adler from The Roxy in LA, Anthony Sanchez of Runaway Productions in Portland, LA based Arizona DJ Z-Trip, and SF DJ/promotor Ren Salgado of True Skool. This latest interview is with Michael Maietta of NYC based CEG Presents (Creative Entertainment Group) who as band manager and concert promoter has some engaging insights on the music business including his story on the reason for the success of the always booked band Badfish who work with promoters and club owners rather than what he sees as the "more common working relationship of band vs promoter." A must read for anyone who puts on shows whether big or small.
