Amanda Jones - President
I am always plugged into music. Music is the expression of my emotions and feelings. Music helps me to grasp an understanding of how I am feeling at any given moment throughout the day. It allows me to feel my passions that live deep within me, the ones that no one else in the world can feel or even begin to understand. Music creates life within me when I feel sad or upset. It gets me up each day. Music brings me hope because I never know what I will hear today that will inspire me tomorrow.
My journey with music started with Linkin Park. My first live experience with Linkin Park was in Denver, CO on their Thousand Suns Tour. I was randomly selected to attend their meet and greet prior to the show. I can honestly say that I have never met a nicer group of guys. They were very sincere and kind to their fans which left a deep impression on me. Then, I witnessed them in concert. Wow. What an amazing experience. I experienced firsthand the love exchanged between Link Park fans and Linkin Park. I have never experienced so many emotions all at once. It was at this point that I started to rethink my life.
After the concert, I sat with all of the emotions that were swirling around inside me. After everything settled, I realized that my connection to Linkin Park was more than just the music. Since I was able to meet them in person and then see them in concert, I started to realize that the entire experience was very healing for me. Being around musicians who genuinely care for their fans not just in a small meeting room but also witnessing the same compassion lived out on stage left me feeling complete as a person. Linkin Park helped me to reconnect to myself and reevaluate what I had been doing with my life up to this point. Within months of seeing Linkin Park, I enrolled with Globe University in the Music Business Program.
Now, I am on a path to becoming an artist manager. Upon completion of my Associates Degree, I will be moving to LA to continue my education with the Musicians Institute. And, I now leave you with a few lyrics from Linkin Park's "The Messenger":
"When you feel you're alone
Cut off from this cruel world
Your instincts telling you to run
Listen to your heart
Those angel voices
They'll sing to you
They'll be your guide
Back home
When life leaves us blind
Love keeps us kind
It keeps us kind"

Elizabeth gillitzer - Liz - Website designer
What should someone like me say about...someone like me? How does anyone really know how to describe themselves? It's not how I describe myself to others. It's how I describe myself to me.
Who am I? I'm a writer, a singer, an artist, a mythology buff, an otaku, a costume-maker, a dress-maker, and many things besides.
What have I done? I graduated from Evansville High School with Honors in June of 2011 and I acted in three plays that I remember: "Twinderella" in middle school, "Guys & Dolls" in my senior year of high school, and "Fiddler on the Roof" the summer of 2011 with the Evansville Community Theater. My overall ACT score was a 24 if that matters for anyone.
And what do I want to do? Many, many things.

Tony Miller
As a self-taught guitarist/vocalist, a current MB student at Globe University and aspiring artist manager/writer/producer, my life consists of one music related moment after another, and I wouldn't have it any other way. It's safe to say music is my life.
