Remember when I posted pics from AMP's music seminar and Lloyd Stanbury was the guest speaker and delved into issues concerning the business of music, specifically the various contracts one may encounter. Well Richie B is pretty much doing the same thing except its on radio ( on his Hot Mix Show on Hot 102 FM) and not in a long conference but one segment at a time.

Terry Laidley looks on as Michael Bennet takes the mike.
