Is the Road Rally Worth It?
“I travelled for 17 hours each way to get to and from the Road Rally. I am jet-lagged as hell. But if I had to do it again, I would be there in a heartbeat!!!”- Adonis Aletras, TAXI Member
“What a great convention. This was my first year and I could not get over the fact that it's FREE! I cannot figure out why TAXI’s not charging $400-$500 for something of that caliber.” - Kerry Cox, TAXI Member
“At first I didn't think I could afford to go. After thinking it through, I realized I couldn't afford NOT to go.” - Craig Larson, TAXI Member
“I was told the Road Rally alone would be worth the cost of joining [TAXI] and it is true! My guest said he would expect the tickets to be at least $500 apiece for any other event of this kind, not that there is one. Thanks again, truly a life-altering event.”

Imagine how good it is if people say things like…
"I was told that the Rally would be a life-changing experience, and it proved to be absolutely true." - Adriana Lycette, TAXI Member"Even if you suck at schmoozing you'd still get a ton out of the Rally. I honestly believe if everybody knew what they were missing by not attending the Rally, they would start saving up TODAY for next year." - Matt Hirt, TAXI Member
“I flew 15 hours from São Paulo to LA just for the Rally. And I can tell you: it was one of the best experiences of my life!” - Rogerio Maudonnet, TAXI Member
Skeptical?
“I’m skeptical of any service that offers to help musicians ‘make it’… so I didn’t know what to expect. …90% of [the TAXI Road Rally] was the most focused, specific, high-quality advice I’ve ever seen distributed in a seminar format.”- Stephen Fortner, Editor, Keyboard Magazine
"I just returned home last night from my first Road Rally. I learned more in three days about the business of music than I have from 45 years in playing in bars. It was great, I loved it, and I will be back next year." - Dean Brittain, TAXI Member

Imagine what it would feel like to be able to say this!
“Many relationships began for me at the Rally, not only with fellow members, but also with music library owners and publishers who eventually signed my music. I would not have any of the success I have had so far without the TAXI Road Rally. It’s a no brainer in my opinion, if you’re serious about your career.”- Robbie Hancock, TAXI Member
“Do what you need to in order to attend the Road Rally in November. It is an information gold-mine, an amazing social atmosphere and a major motivator.”
- Paul Croteau, TAXI Member
"The TAXI Road Rally is the best conference I have ever been to for musicians looking to become better at songwriting, performing, networking, and marketing."
- Ariel Hyatt, Social Media Expert
Does your music need to be “ready” before you go?
“I almost didn't go to the Road Rally this year because I didn't feel ready and professional enough. I decided to go anyway, and I'm so glad I did. Not only did I make some incredible contacts, but also I came home feeling much more professional and knowledgeable about the industry, and my own direction as an artist. Thanks again for opening so many doors for me!” - Celia Rose, TAXI Member"I nearly didn't make the trip over from Hong Kong, thinking that it was too early to benefit from the Rally after joining only 6 months ago. I couldn't have been more wrong, and this really was one of the most outstanding and enriching events I have ever been to." - Andrew, TAXI Member
"I gotta say, it lived up to the hype and then some. That was one of the greatest experiences of my life." - Mike Baressi, TAXI Member
"TAXI and the Road Rally has been the best investment in my musical career that I have ever made. Nobody delivers like TAXI!" - Kurt Kreimier, TAXI Member
The experience not only lived up to my expectations, it surpassed them!"
- Russ Reiter, TAXI Member
Wondering if you’ll feel comfortable and fit in?
“Thank you all for welcoming me (us) with open arms… it really feels like being part of an amazing family… And to the new members... follow the plan… don't get down… keep creating and trust your path and the process. Go ‘all-in’ with TAXI. Try the listings, watch TAXI TV, GET ON/STAY ON the TAXI Forum... they are all priceless. AND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, GET TO NEXT YEAR'S RALLY. It is an impossible event to describe… and trust me, despite what any of us say, it will far surpass your expectations.”- Adriana Lycette, TAXI Member
"The entire atmosphere at the Rally is like... one big family. My wife said that she didn't want to leave such a warm environment to go back to the real world. Neither did I." - Clay Butler, TAXI Member
“I have made more contacts in the industry and made several deals from people I’ve met at the Rally. Not to mention the friends I’ve made. It’s hard to describe in words. You just have to experience it for yourself.” - Steve Barden, TAXI Member
“The TAXI Road Rally is an extremely energizing experience for everyone including artists, songwriters, and composers. So many contacts are made at the Rally, and there is so much to learn. Attending the Rally can be a career-changing weekend. You really can’t put a price on this. Attending the Rally is an investment, not an expense. Place a priority on this and make it happen.” - Russell Landwehr, TAXI Member
“One visit to the Road Rally will do more for you than ten NAMM shows worth of schmoozing.”
“I almost never come away from anything like this even remotely impressed, let alone enough to write an editor’s letter about it. I now believe that for anyone who starts with a baseline of motivation and talent, a year with TAXI, and one visit to the Road Rally will do more for you than ten NAMM shows worth of schmoozing…”.- Stephen Fortner, Editor, Keyboard Magazine

Still having doubts?
"The Rally removed any doubt I have about TAXI. When my renewal is due, I'm signing up for 2 years!" - Felix Wong, TAXI Member"If someone has found a company that offers more opportunities in so many aspects of this business, please tell me." - Lee Johnson, TAXI Member
"The Rally is already perhaps the most focused, educational, and even life-changing music convention out there." - Matt Hirt, TAXI Member
Thinking about going to another convention?
"If you can only go to one convention, go to the TAXI Road Rally."- Rob Chiarelli, Multi-platinum, 2X Grammy-winning Mixer/Producer
"I speak at a lot of music events nationally and internationally throughout the year. The TAXI Road Rally is my favorite - by miles." - Debra Russell, Career Coach
“As far as I'm concerned, it's the top educational and networking event in the music business, and I recommend it in all of my books and workshops. Bravo!”
- Jason Blume, Hit Songwriter, 50 Million Records
Can you really meet industry executives at the Rally?
“I loved being able to actually hand my music to those A&R folks! I'll be back next year!" - Rebecca Dale Peaden, TAXI Member“The Road Rally, I cannot recommend highly enough. It is fun and informative. It’s free. You should check how much similar industry events around the country cost. You might not have much of a chance to meet that many people who are making money from their music in the same place at the same time. You can have your pieces played and live critiqued in front of industry pros and they might ask to take home a copy of something they like.” - Andy Gabrys, TAXI Member
“The music professionals at the Road Rally are among the most humble, funny, encouraging, generous, and helpful professionals I've ever met.”
- John Cimino, TAXI Member
“I was very impressed with the support, enthusiasm, and excitement generated by TAXI members. Clearly, TAXI’s service is something they truly believe in. Their energy certainly got my attention. I think TAXI did a great job with their conference.”
- Jerry Davis, Music Supervisor, Fox Sports
"This year's Rally was my first. I was impressed with how many panels and workshops they offered at the event. TAXI provides direct access to top level executives and songwriters giving its members an incredible opportunity.”
- Mike Elizondo, Hit Songwriter and Producer; 50 Cent, Eminem, Snoop Dogg, and Busta Rhymes
"I was thrilled to be a part of this year's TAXI convention. I am a big fan of TAXI and how it supports the realization of people's musical dreams."
- Kara DioGuardi, Songwriter/Producer; Celine Dion, Faith Hill, Kelly Clarkson, Santana, Taylor Hicks, Hannah Montana, and many others

“One single connection made for us by TAXI has resulted in our songs and productions being on over 45 million albums sold over the last three and half years. And then they gave us the Inspiration Award this year! TAXI is the one that deserves the award!” - Adam Watts and Andy Dodd, TAXI Members“What happens at the Rally is nothing short of magic, and in my case, life-changing. If you’ve frequented the Forum and TAXI TV, you now get to put real faces to the names of the people you’ve chatted with. And if you were using the Peer-to-Peer section of the Forum, now a lot of these people have even heard your music. When you get to the Rally, if you’ve used all the tools TAXI offers, it’s the Super Bowl.”
- Marcus Cohen, TAXI Member
“TAXI’s Road Rally is often the first and only chance many of these people ever have to connect with the industry they want to be a part of."
- Cliff Audretch III, Sr. Dir. A&R/Staff Producer, Universal Records South
“The Rally exceeded my expectations. TAXI is a shining example of ethics in a jaded industry, putting in countless hours for the benefit of its members, going above and beyond what most businesses would do.” - Nomi Yah, TAXI Member

“There were so many great speakers and classes that choosing between them was difficult! It's amazing that you can 'get up close and personal' with so many music industry people at the Rally.” - Vikki Flawith, TAXI Member
Still thinking about it???
“This was my first TAXI Road Rally, and I have to admit I was a bit skeptical of the claims that it could "change my life.” The first day blew my doubts away. Inspiring, helpful speakers and teachers from the upper echelons of the music industry willingly sharing their knowledge. Rooms full of people with similar interests, all excited to talk to complete strangers. I got an excellent critique of my music from an exec. at a famous publisher, and made lots of contacts. I'll never be able to thank you enough!”- Dave Ogden, TAXI Member
“Michael, the Road Rally was phenomenal! I met people from all over and actually
got to meet several major label A&R guys! I've already gotten an email from
one of them so it just goes to show that they DO take the time to listen to
what you give them. See ya next year Michael!”
- NIKO, TAXI Member

“The knowledge I gained at the Rally was priceless to me and the trip itself was well worth every penny it took to get to Hollywood. Thank you to everyone at TAXI for putting on a truly exceptional convention!” - Brett Gillan, TAXI Member“There is such a wealth of knowledge from the panelists and the people in the industry at the Road Rally that I can't see how anyone could NOT go, because if you really want to BE in the Music Industry, this Convention is the BEST investment of your time!!” - Steve Archdecon, TAXI Member
