My website for Maintain Radio Silence is up and running - its accessible either at www.bradleymetrock.com or www.maintainradiosilence.com.
I am so excited that the project is complete and ready to sell! I really think people will enjoy it.
Business school is back in full force - I'm taking three classes this quarter, in addition to a project with Compendia Music Group along with Kris and Quentin. The project will entail creating a tool to measure the profit potential of artists, so the company can more easily decide what acts to sign and which to pass on. There will be other tasks involved too, but that's the primary one.
My three classes are Strategic Management - a "core" class which all students are required to take - and two Finance classes, Securities and Portfolios, as well as Corporate Value Management. In Strategic Management and "Corp Val", we have groups which divide up large team-based assignments to complete. Securities and Portfolios focuses more on individual problem sets.
Maybe one day I'll finally be done with school, forever, and will get to experience the real world. Maybe.
Kris, Quentin, and I have also started our own management group/record label, and are closing in on signing our first act. Can't say much more about it right now, but as soon as something's definite, I'll post the artist's website and some of his music here. While nothing is definite, for whatever act our management group signs, Mariner Records may get the rights to the first album recorded early in 2005.
Lori, her brother James, John Hart and I participated in a football playoff pool, where each of us put in $5 and the person with the most points (received for correct predictions of the games) wins the $20. Unbelievably, Lori ended up winning, which has now become a complete and total embarrassment. Ok, not really, but I don't know any guy who enjoys losing a sports-related contest to his girlfriend...
