So You Wanna be a Rock and Roll Star

WHERE THE MONEY COMES FROM Music Publishing: This is where the real money is made. The writer and publisher of a song get money each time the song is played on the radio or TV, and for every record of the song sold. Do not give up your publishing. Do not sign with a record company that in any way forces you to share your publishing with them.

Where that wonderful money comes from, what to do with it when you get it, ad infinitum! Stick around next month for the rest of the story. — Ed.)
