I hope students will be taught
not to behave like these creatures
Students at St. Louis Community College - Forest Park are getting practical experience in the music business by running a record label, as recounted in this story from earlier this week in the P-D
FoPa is the label name, assistant music professor Thomas Zirkle is the man who got it started, and the students involved in the program recently cut their first session with a non-student ensemble, recording the jazz-funk band Cherry Octopi live at the college's Mildred E. Bastian Performing Arts Center. So far, the label's recordings are available only by mail.
(On a related note, I know I once saw a web site for Cherry Octopi, but now I can't seem to find it again. If anybody has an URL for them, please leave it in the comments. Thanks.)
