'Burning Questions' - 1on1 Music Industry Session
on Wednesday, 9 April 2008, 6:30pm - 9pm at the Dux Lounge, Christchurch.

The Night's Format
Bring yourself along to the Dux Lounge from 6:30pm and meet the CHART team and other key industry peeps from around NZ who will do their absolute best to answer any questions you’ve been dying to ask but didn’t know how, in a series of relaxed and personal quick one-on-one sessions over a beer, wine or coffee.
