The guys are back from their West Coast Adventure at NAMM and looks like they had a great time! From press conferences with Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith, NAMM panel presentations to meet and greets with Alice In Chain’s Jerry Cantrell, Slash, Flea, Victor Wooten and Kyle Gass of Tenacious D, there is no doubt that we work nationally to make it better locally!

You can always be FAN of Progressive’s on Facebook for full pictures, videos and more!

Off to a great start – several bands already up and running with a few song ideas, band names, etc… If this group of rockers is as good as last weeks, and we think they are, we are in for a great concert again on Friday evening!! Video of last week’s camp and concert, which was AMAZING, up in a few days on Youtube and RaleighRockSchool.com.

It’s not too late to register and save for our summer camps, and we still have spots open for ALL camp sessions in our Raleigh and Wake Forest studios! We know it’s a tough economy, so we’re also cutting the 50% deposit to only 20% on all camp sessions through May 1st! 


Registration for the GREATEST summer camp experience of your life opened in February! Have you registered and saved $50 yet? Progressive Music Center’s Original School of Rock Camp 2009 returns with an updated and innovative approach to our ever popular camps.

For summer 2009 we will still have our “campers” rehearse and perform a weekly concert, but on top of that we will combine music and technology to offer MusicTech. We’ll have sessions on recording, promoting your music, the latest in music tech gear and how to use it in your band’s gigs and rehearsals and we’re adding more to the schedule everyday. These will be hands-on sessions where you do the work and by weeks end you can take your work with you (we’ll record your rehearsals and gig).

We are also introducing our first ever double week session. We’ll have the same group of musicians for 10 days instead of the normal one week period, and then wrap it up with a huge concert the last day of the camp (see below for a listing of all camp dates and concerts). There’s also an early bird registration offer (only $350 for registration payments received before March 31st!) and if the Gods of Construction are on our side, we may be in our new Raleigh, NC location just in time for the first MusicTech session.

We’re well into our third week of our Original School of Rock Summer Camps and the bands are sounding great! Here’s a clip of our students rockers rehearsing at camp. The sound is not the greatest (the sound is from a little mic on a little DV camera), but you get the point – these are 8 and 9 year olds working on an original tune….

No mosquitoes, no canoes, no bad food or letters home Just good music and lots of fun! That’s right, it’s time again for the BEST summer camp you will ever attend – Progressive Music Center’s 13th year of the ‘Original School of Rock’ Summer Camps returns!!!

This year we’re adding new courses, like “Communication Breakdown – How to Work & Communicate with Your Band On Stage”, plus we’re “retiring” some songs that have simply been played to death and adding new material that needs to be played!
