The 'band' side of things is taken care of elsewhere - have you guys ever heard of Field Music? However, School of Language live performances have variously featured the talents of Doug McCombs, Ryan Rapsys, Peter Brewis and Neil Bassett. And me. -

I like how you can see the School of Language poster in the window of RPM on Google maps street view. okay so it's the old RPM shop window and you can only see "UAGE A ORE" (because the window frame obscures part of the text and Google have decided to blur the word "FROM"?) but you can tell it's School of Language because of the typography (but more likely because you know what the poster looks like).
Also, I forgot how hilarious the Rockist video is!! - Sunderland Music Forum2 years agoSetting up a Record Label – Free DIY WorkshopDate: 27.01.10 Time: 11.30am – 5.30pmGenerator and Transmit Consulting have produced new music business development units fordelivery as a one day bite size workshops.
