Music Matters: Future of Music Coalition Policy Summit: Day 2

Another fantastic day at the 2009 Future of Music Coalition Policy Summit. Highlights include the diverse panel on what DIY means in today's music landscape (I now have a huge crush on Emily White); a heady legal discussion on sampling (which produced the quote of the day, "Ever since the Supreme Court adjudicated the 2 Live Crew case..."); a speech by Senator Franken on Net Neutrality (and a frantic I'm-one-of-your-constituents-and-I-heart-you handshake with the Senator outside Healy Hall); a Bruce Springsteen influenced poem from FCC Chairman Genachowski (?); a friendly/heated discussion about the lingering tensions between major labels and everyone else (Peter Jenner was a revelation); a briskly moderated session on new intersections between music and technology (Brian Zisk has questions, and you better have answers); a swoonfest between everyone and NPR (Bob Boilan!); an over crowded cocktail party (where I met another classical music performer); and a phenomenal Bonerama concert at the Rock and Roll hotel (special guests: Erin McKeown, Nicole Atkins, Wayne Kramer (!), and Mike Mills (R.E.M !!).

Pictures from today.

Live tweets below, for the diehards. Can't wait for day three.
