appears worth your time.

- The week kicks off in **Chicago this Tuesday Oct. 6th** as the **[New Music Seminar](http://www.reverbnation.com/c./a4/1232333/510260/Artist/510260/Artist/link?ref=hypebot.com)** comes to town. I participated in the NYC gathering this summer and this one promises to be even stronger.
- **[Digital Music Forum West](http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/music-industry-business-models-battle-it-out-at-digital-music-forum-west-63331017.html?ref=hypebot.com)** has added speakers to its ambitious agenda in **LA Oct. 6-7**.
- Hypebot's own **Kyle Bylin** deliver's a keynote Q &A at **[Next Big Nashville](http://www.nextbignashville.net/?ref=hypebot.com)** **Oct 7-10** in the Music City.
- The **[New Noise Santa Barbara Conference & Festival](http://newnoisesb.com/index.php/register?ref=hypebot.com)** has gathered an impressive group of speakers that should help put that city on the musical map long after its **Oct. 8-10** dates.
