Better Than The Van + Scion = LA Good Times

Last week we jumped a plane and headed to the city of lost angels for the Scion Music(less) Conference. A little ditty put on by Scion to bring together all kind of minds from the music world to talk shop, present their ideas and listen to the RZA throw down about the music industry. It was a small affair and we were please as punch to be invited. We met a lot of great people and found out what happens in LA when the Lakers win a championship (see definition of urban chaos). We took some pics and you can check out all the happenings at Scion AV in a couple weeks!

We met a lot of great people from cool companies like Nimbit (direct to fan merch and music), Sonoma Wireworks (turn your iphone or ipod into a four track), Tunecore (digital distro giant), Reverbnation (you know), mTraks (curated download store) and one of my favorites Sound Exchange (an awesome nonprofit that finds money owed bands and musicians from online radio and streaming sites. you fill out a few pieces of paperwork and they hunt down what’s owed you.)

Fall brings some great things. A relaunch of the site with tons of new features and the return of Better Than The Van Happy Hours. We’re going big and we can’t go home. That’s it. Be well. Go on tour.
