Thanks for putting all these together! I looks like a good mix, and I’m definitely going to check all these out. I’ve been noticing that lots of blogs have been putting together the year’s highlights this week because it’s the end of the year, and I’m happy to have someone organize all the great info for me. Hunting helpful tips down (and from people that can be trusted) can be pretty tedious. I’ve been also finding some good interviews and marketing tips on this other site (that actually just also put out a “Best of” list today) . It might be helpful for those checking your links out! http://musiciancoaching.com/
