I heard and read about some articles pertaining to the results of concerts in the Philippines. This includes local and international artists who don’t make good income in terms of ticket sales but not necessarily in sponsorship. They observed that there are some well known international artists can’t make concert goers watch.

This artist had already had their target crowd, from their fans and those who love their music. That’s why event and concert producers wanted their services but it’s true that they may not make it well in terms or ticket sales.

If the artist is business savy, he or she also needs conversion rate optimization like what do bloggers do to convert visitors into income.

Even though there is a world crisis going on, people will still somehow spend to watch someone they love. Like those 100 thousand of fans who watched Eraserheads concerts. Hopefully thousands of Arnel Pineda fans of the Journey fame will also see the band’s concert tomorrow in MOA open ground.

My husband is really a big fan of Shaquille Rashun O’Neal, more popularly known as Shaq, the NBA player, actor and rapper. I never thought that he can dance given his big height of more than seven feet tall.

Shaq has prized possessions not only the tangible ones such as a beautiful house, car collections, Audemars Piguet watch and beautiful family. He is also widely most quotable athletes of all time.

Althugh he was criticized as a rapper, he still managed to release five studio album and one compilation album. He even received a platinum certification from RIAA from his debut album Shaq Diesel.

We were on a computer store last weekend because my husband had his computer upgraded. While waiting, I as also looking around prices of new laptops and found wholesale laptops that will appear cheaper when bought in new units. But what captured me was the screensaver of one of the laptops displayed. It was the rock band Journey featuring its latest album cover The Revelation which already made records worldwide.

Now the band will be having a concert in the Philippines this coming March 14, 2009 in SM Mall of Asia open grounds. This will be an enchanted evening with the Journey.

A few more sleeps to go and come Saturday night on March 7, 2009, fans expect the Eraserheads Part 2 Concert in SM Mall of Asia open ground. Tickets are starting to run out already. We hope that band vocalist Ely Buendia could finish the whole concert. Hopefully we will not be carrying pantry moth traps anymore because insects surrounding the venue will evacuate because I am sure thousands of Filipino fans will be there to have their “Huling El Bimbo”.

To say that I love music is an understatement. If I will be given a chance to choose a career I’d be happy with even without the money, I will be happy to be in the field of music. Singing or playing the piano either solo or in a band.

My husband is a registered nurse but he is not working in a hospital. He loves the arts, photography, painting and designing stuff.

There are thousands of people who graduated in a certain course but the career path they end up with is not what they exactly prepared for from academic standpoint. Many people waste a lot of money in colleges and universities but they end up in a different field.

That’s why those who will graduate in high school this coming March should think a thousand timed the course they want to take in college. Be sure that you will be happy in the academic path you choose.

But then again, who can guarantee that? So to those who graduated from a degree but not happy with it, there are schools that offer alternatives. Assuming you’re a management fan, there’s such a thing as Project Management certificate. The Project Management curriculum prepares professionals to apply project management principles and lead project teams towards successful project completion.

You can choose different management degree courses you see fit. Project Management Certificates such as Engineering Managers, Construction Managers, Management Analysts, Natural Sciences Managers, Computer and Information Systems Managers are expected to grow in demand. These will be in great need in the future and they offer better and higher compensation.

Evaluate yourself now and choose the right career path for your future.
