George Jones University gets

geared up for another session

Are you looking to go back to school? Have you had that burning desire to find out what's really out there? Well, this is your chance to find out everything you need to know. George Jones University is now gearing up for their fall classes set for September 25th thru September 27th. (GJU) takes great pride in teaching each student everything there is to know about the music industry. It's a two-and-a-half day instruction session, that's "no-nonsense and straight-forward."

"This marvelous institute of learning could not exist without the strong support and endorsement of Nancy and George Jones. It should have been done 50 years ago! Its about the BUSINESS of the Music Business and focuses on enlightening and empowering people who want to enter the industry. Its fun and glorious. Full of hugs, back pats and attaboys. The two days spent in these seminar sessions are life changing and uplifting. Everything runs exactly on time. No alcohol. No tobacco. This is a straight-ahead, in-your-face explosion of information and excitement. No tests. No pass or fail. Everybody I know, with no exceptions, would enjoy and exult in the GJU experience," says GJU Dean, Tandy Rice.

There are numerous areas that are covered throughout the course, such as booking, life on the road, artist management, publishing, and the list goes on. Each morning, the students will get a brief lecture on the history of Country Music and the role that Nashville has played in it. GJU teaches the "ABCs of the Music Industry" and is open to everyone for $400 per session. This is your chance to be a part of the music world.  For more information, go to www.georgejonesuniversity.com.
