Vince and Rob discuss government inquiries into major tours, proposing a levy on tours with over 5,000 attendees, with amounts scaling based on earnings. They debate the feasibility and fairness of such a levy. ARIA's new policy recognizing homegrown number ones is praised. Vincent highlights the success of Team Jesus and the Gene Teasers, noting their significant Spotify streams and potential earnings, despite challenges in monetizing music. They also discuss the importance of smart financial management in the music industry, emphasizing the need for artists to leverage their success effectively.

Vincent and Rob decided to chat away one day about the music business in their territory and from that discussion came the idea to create a podcast about our knowledge base. Vincent from the business side of things and Rob from the education side. Vincent has a 35 year history in entertainment, and Rob has just completed his Phd in Music at the University of Adelaide.

Those backgrounds will bring about some real differences in what they interpret the music business is and how it operates. Join the guys for an hour of insights into the business.
