Music Phone Book is Now Music Page

We’ve talked about in the past that musicians need to be able to keep up with technology, and embrace the tools that are available (while not spending 24 hours a day on the computer and losing the magic that is meeting face to face). Many moons ago I interviewed David Codr about his Music Phone book. This was a great resource for keeping up on all sorts of contacts in the music business.

That was back in 2007, and things have changed and keep an accurate version of anything is hard when things change so fast. Consequently, the Music Phone book has now morphed into musicpage.com where you can list a profile, and search for venues, booking agents, music stores, etc in your area. When you find them you can add notes that only you can see.

When you call Steve at the Rusty Rhino bar and he says to call back next Tuesday you can use the service to send you a reminder next Tuesday via text message. Best of all its free. There are some great features that you do have to pay for (this is good, typically resources that never charge for anything go out of business).

When I logged in I see where there are some resources on the site, but as its brand new there are some area that are a little bare. One area I would like keep void of information is the section of the site that helps musicians find stolen gear.

The way the site does stay in business is through one advertisement per page (when I logged in) and its targeted. For example if you say your a guitarist, you will more than likely see adds that has guitars. If you are a pianist you will see (you get the idea).
