I will add though, that I think these courses are hugely exploitative. You sign onto it wanting to learn skills etc. with very little chance of actually making a living out of it. It is all part of the commodification of culture and everything else associated with the comercialisation of people's lives that exists at the moment. You'll get a qualification that means nothing in reality, you gain a basic understanding of the field (I don't mean to demean that, I definatly gained from it) but you gain very little in terms of concrete skills or future. If you're keen on this, do it, but bare in mind that you're getting into one of the most cut-throat mystified industries that exist in the 1st world. If you want to make a living out of this. You'll have to put a huge amount of time into this and in all likelihood head overseas. Otherwise you'll be paying heaps for some cool social skills.
I did a 4 month PTE course years ago. I've seen munters who knew less after 2 years at MAINZ. Having said that at MAINZ I saw some really on to it people as well. What's most important is that you go into it wanting to do more. In my experience, those courses are the bare minimum. What you need to do is look at the lecturers and see what they've done. If you have time, ring them and listen to what they say. More than anything your lecturers are what make or break. If you want to do something you'll be pressing your lecturers for more, so you need to be able to get the most from your lecturers. For instance Angus Mclauglin works at MAINZ in Auckland and I love a lot of the stuff he has been involved in. Look into it and see what they have done. That gives away heaps...

Hope the arseholes who were at the front of Ghostclub aren't in the front again, dickheads demanding 3D's songs...
Kill Surf City would be wicked with the Clean... Or Die! Die! Die!, Andrew would wet his pants ;) (heh Onanon?)
How much are tickets?
This is a gig i'm sending attached to the front!
//Everyone knows techno owns.//
No it doesn't, You suck...
Brown people can be racist against brown people. Check Mel Gibson's Apocalypto for something along those lines (ignoring the whole revisionist rewriting colonisation theme)...
What really matters though is that both of you suck. Christ rent a hotel and have you're "who's brownest" argument there.
Did they get paid?
Why yes and they have diamonds for eye.
//or a cruel joke on the unsuspecting hipster?//
Ain't that the Shaky Hands? I don't see much difference from Nova Echo...
//If I find out you've downloaded it, I'm coming over to give you quite a firm chinese burn. //

Been wondering where the fuck you'd got to...
You the sound engineer?
//Brian Jonestown Massacre @ Austin, TX//
