Billy and Bob are Back!

Billy and Bob just returned from St. Cloud, Florida where they presented the STARTiN workshops. They performed in 4 schools presenting multiple 1-hour inter-active creative workshops for small groups of students (25-80 per class) In advance of the live performances, each school presented the STARTiN pilot DVD, START Cookin', featuring Emeril Lagasse and Doc Gibbs, in the classrooms.


"1-2-3-4...PKS&W...Passion-Knowledge-Skill & Will!"

"Fun for music... hey guys, what's this a SPIN on?"
This tour is in preparation for the shooting of the next STARTiN DVD, "Getting Ideas". The question, "How do we get ideas?", was explained by presenting various idea-getting techniques such as: Brainstorming, Spin Bucket, Game of Opposites, Intuition, Speed Answer Game and the Power of Suggestion.

Quotes from Debbie Fahmie, music specialist at Cypress Elementary in Osceola County, FL. Debbie is the President-Elect for the Florida Elementary Music Educator's Association and Past President of Phi Delta Kappa.

"Billy and Bob bring a dynamic perspective to the work music educators are doing with developing creativity in our students. They become the visiting artist that makes the learning so much more relevant and vibrant. They bring the perspective of the entertainment professional into the classroom and the students react so positively to the respect that Billy and Bob are giving to their input and ideas".

"It's a breath of fresh air to find two highly dedicated people who are willing to develop a product around the needs of the child and the educator".

"This exceptionally motivating event was a highlight for my students and inspired their thinking and creative powers".

"The whole concept is brilliant and is an important tool for music educators as well as classroom teachers".
