What did you wake up thinking about this morning? Qello is launching a separately branded children’s platform that will be a big deal this year, and every morning I wake up thinking about the launch. The content deals for the launch are being wrapped up now. We have one major international broadcast deal that is in the ninth inning and we hope to have it wrapped up by MIDEM. Also, I woke up wearing my Bob Frank Entertainment record-business hat. We have quite a few distribution deals ready to close that we will plug into my deal with RED in the U.S. Age: 47

Qello will soon launch with Roku and Xbox over the next few months along with the 3 new kid platform launch.

WHAT: Sony Corp. agreed to sell its Gracenote music database subsidiary to TV/newspaper conglomerate Tribune for $170 million, a 35% discount from the $260 million that Sony paid for Gracenote in 2008. The transaction is set to close by the end of March. Grace- note launched in 1998 gathering data on CDs and vinyl albums. It’s since branched out to TV shows, boasting a database of 180 million music tracks and TV shows. Apple uses Gracenote to identify CDs that people copy to their iTunes libraries.

WHY: Tribune, which owns 23 TV stations and eight daily news- papers including the and , says it will combine Gracenote into Tribune Media Services, a subsid- iary that serves up TV and movie listings to cable companies. Add- ing Gracenote will round out Tribune’s ofering to include a wider breadth of entertainment information and metadata. “Both com- panies have substantial digital footprints and are well-respected leaders in their areas globally,” Tribune Digital Ventures president Shashi Seth said in a statement. “Together we will become an even greater force in the global entertainment data business by servicing new and existing customers with better data, new products and new services to help an evolving entertainment industry.” Sony, which has been hemorrhaging money and market share from its consumer electronics business, is selling Gracenote as part of chief executive Kazuo Hirai’s larger efort to streamline the Japanese giant’s busi- ness and jettison unrelated properties.

The Chicago media company already has a tight relationship with Gracenote, which uses TMS data to help its customers identify TV shows and place targeted ads against them. “Prior to the acquisition, Tribune was a key data partner,” Gracenote CEO Stephen White says. “We’ve built comple- mentary assets.”

IF: Tribune is unlikely to be as hands-of an owner with Grace- note as Sony had been. White wouldn’t talk about Tribune’s plans, pointing out that the acquisition hasn’t yet closed. Instead, he notes that both companies have “complementary” technologies rather than overlaps that could lead to large layofs or major changes in senior management.

The Satellite Prophet

Stern’s interviews with musicians frequently make headlines, like when Lady Gaga—who performed stripped-down versions of ART- POP tracks “Dope” and “Gypsy”when she visited his show—revealed in November that following her hip injury that forced her to cancel dates on her Born This Way Ball tour she developed what she de- scribed as a marijuana “addiction,” smoking 15-20 joints a day. But along with personal revelations, Stern’s music interviews can dig deep into songwriting. In October, a Paul McCartney session was an in- depth Beatlemaniac’s song-by-song dream discussion that turned up details like “Helter Skelter” being spurred on by McCartney’s attempt to compete with the Who. Stern has earned more than $700 million since his surprise move from terrestrial radio in 2006. His 2010 $400 million re-up was by some estimates worth more than $2,000 per broadcast minute. Many would argue he’s been worth it. When Stern joined Sirius it had fewer than half a million subscribers, and today it has 25.6 mil- lion. But it hasn’t all been smooth sailing for Sirius, which, after going through a protracted merger with XM Radio that was completed in 2008, was saved from the brink of bankruptcy by cable TV veteran John Malone’s Liberty Media in 2009. Malone’s $530 million loan in exchange for a 40% stake has since been boosted to a controlling 53% stake now worth more than $10 billion as the satellite radio monopoly has started to fulfll its long-expected promise as a business. This month, the host of “The Howard Stern Show” will celebrate his 60th birthday with a star-studded birthday bash set to air live on SiriusXM on Jan. 31 (19 days after his actual birthday). The party is a gift to his loyalists—open only to active SiriusXM subscribers lucky enough to win their way in for a night of music, comedy and Stern interviewing special guests—with the festivities to be hosted by ABC late-night host and friend Jimmy Kimmel. Ahead of the bash, Stern sat down with Billboard to discuss not WorldMags.net 24 BILLBOARD | JANUARY 25, 2014 PHOTOGRAPH BY ANDREW ECCLES WorldMags.netThe Business Of Baba Booey How Gary Dell’Abate delivered on Howard Stern’s mandate to book more A-list guests, and what we can expect from the birthday bash

nterns, take note: Howard Stern’s executive pro- ducer Gary Dell’Abate—who’ll celebrate 30 years of working with Stern on Sept. 4—started out bringing the boss lunch. Through the years, he grew into the gatekeeper who books the show’s guests (while remaining one of Stern’s favorite sources for on-air ribbing). While the show has featured more than its share of porn stars, strippers and mainstream misfi ts, Dell’Abate (famously nicknamed “Baba Booey” for his 1990 mispronunciation of “Baba Looey,” cartoon character Quick Draw McGraw’s sidekick) reveals that Stern’s mandate for 2013 was a stronger focus on music and fi lm A-list guests. He delivered, and looks to keep doing so in 2014—so far , Jon Bon Jovi and John Fogerty are confi rmed for Stern’s birthday bash on Jan. 31.

How have you changed the way you go about booking guests? We needed to remind people who we are, how great Howard is at interviewing and the people we reach. We let that slide for a bit. One of the things in my pitch let- ter is that SiriusXM has 25 million subscribers. Conser- vatively, we have a third of that, more than “Today” and “Good Morning America” combined. Oh, by the way, we’ll give you an hour to tell your story uninterrupted, instead of four minutes on one of those shows. And, we’ll rerun it 10 times before the week is out. So this show has more to give than any other show out there.

I remember Billy was on Oprah [Winfrey’s] show one time, and she was just not treating him with respect, and I was like, “Why the fuck is she doing this? Does she know who he is? How dif- f cult it was for him and his career path and how many thousands of hours he put into his career?” He came into my stu- dio, sat down at a piano and started talking about the process. He said, “The f rst time I heard the Bea- tles and they did this rif ”—and he starts playing it—“I wanted to do a song that’s just as good.” He showed how he does it. It was just magic. I didn’t have to ask if it was good. I just knew it was. Jerry Seinfeld, too. He said after an interview re- cently, “I can’t ever come do your show again.” I said, “Why?” And he said, “Because we can never top that.” It was the best hour-and-a-half.

BILLBOARD INDUSTRY ICON HONOREE PAUL McGUINNESS REFLECTS ON 35 YEARS AS MENTOR IN CHIEF FOR ‘THE BIGGEST BAND IN THE WORLD’

BY RAY WADDELL

EW MANAGERS ARE SO CLOSELY associated with one act as Paul Mc- Guinness has been with U2, a group he took from a fledgling band of dubi- ous musicianship playing Dublin bars to where it is widely considered the biggest group in the world. News broke late last year that McGuinness would step back from day-to- day duties for U2 after more than 35 years, handing the reins to manager Guy Oseary, as the band’s management shifts from McGuinness’ Principle Management to the management division of Live Nation, with whom F U2 signed a 12-year touring/merchandising/e-commerce pact in 2008. In a statement, U2 said, in part, “Paul has saved us from ourselves many times over and we would not be U2 without him,” describing his ongoing role as “mentor in chief.” The move represents a monumental change for McGuinness, who has devoted more than half of his life to guiding U2. While he has directed countless significant career moves along the way, perhaps the most visionary was realizing the potential of a band he recalls “weren’t very good at all” when he was first introduced to the group by influential Irish music writer Bill Graham—though McGuinness adds that his own lack of musical sophistication didn’t make the band’s lack of chops an issue. But McGuinness did have the vision to recognize U2’s onstage alchemy—an intense connection be- tween band and audience—and unlimited potential. The fiery ambition and creativity of both band and (including a notable in the cult classic “Zardoz” with Sean manager led to a career unlike any in pop history.

Jumping forward a bit, I’d like to revisit the multirights deal with Live Nation and the strategy there. The deal with Live Nation is not really multirights in that, in regard to our recording and our publish- ing, the band owns all their own masters and copy- rights going right back to the beginning, and those are currently licensed to Universal Music Publish- ing and Universal labels, Interscope in North Amer- ica and Island in the U.K. and elsewhere. Live Na- tion [doesn’t] participate in those rights. The rights Live Nation have are to do with merchandising, concerts and online. That’s a very satisfactory and integrated relationship. The friendship with Arthur Fogel goes back many years, and it has been very interesting to watch what has happened with the group of pro- moters that Bob Sillerman put together as SFX [which evolved into Live Nation].

9. The Funding Game

Startups want funding. Conferences help startups get that funding. The MI- DEM startup competition series is efectively about finding companies that merit funding. Their judges include venture capitalists and startup coaches, the very people who can either put money into these companies or guide them toward a successful funding round. Startup incubators TechStars and Brazil’s 21212 Digital Accelerator will have a presence. Index Ventures, Balderton Cap- ital and Wellington Partners will also have representatives in attendance. One topic not on the schedule is crowd-funding businesses. The U.S. Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act allows startups to raise money through crowd- funding. Now that the Securities and Exchange Commission has laid out the rules, expect a digital music startup to soon test the crowd-funding waters. But crowd-funding by artists and labels will be discussed. On Feb. 2 at 4:30 p.m., PledgeMusic founder/CEO Benji Rogers and GroupM/WPP chief growth oficer Mike Tunniclife will discuss how and where money is flowing into the music business.

10. A&R Lessons Learned Sire Records founder/ While much of MIDEM focuses on future tech, the importance of core indus- CEO try sectors like A&R hasn’t been forgotten. Taking place at 3:30 p.m. on Feb. 3, Seymour “Building an Artist’s Career, From Discovery to Success” will assemble a panel Stein will talk about of seasoned executives to discuss building international artist careers and mis- A&R lessons takes to avoid. Speakers include Atlantic Records executive VP/head of A&R learned. Pete Ganbarg, BMG Chrysalis VP of creative Andrew Gould and Epic Records U.K. co-managing director Steven Melrose. The same panelists will later take part in the “A&R Pitch Session” that follows at 5 p.m. the same day. For a histori- 11.

Experts implore digital executives to improve their businesses through lessons that he learned working with Madonna, Talking Heads and many more. music discovery. At conferences, in blog posts and in market research reports, discovery is the secret sauce of the digital music business. There’s a great reason discovery is an evergreen theme. What good is ofering tens of millions of songs if one can’t help people find what they want? Discovery is vital for mak-

The search for helpful discovery tools continues on Feb. 1 at icon Chuck 2:30 p.m. when a startup competition called “Music Discovery, Recommendation and Creation” will hear D is on pitches from entrepreneurs. The jury includes Jon Bradford, managing director of the London brands for the Music Discovery startup incubator TechStars, WMG’s Stephen Bryan and hip-hop legend Chuck D. Perhaps they’ll find the jury. killer app of the future.

12. Licensing And More

It’s no exaggeration to say the digital economy has revolutionized music licensing. At 2:30 p.m. on Feb. 2, “Licensing of Music From BC to AD (Before the Change/After Digital)” explores the complexities of clearing rights in an ever-changing digital playing field. The next day at 6 p.m., Merlin CEO Charles Caldas will be joined by BVMI/IFPI managing director Florian Drücke and Mary Megan Peer, president of the Asia Pacific region and strategic markets at peermusic, to lead a forward-focused look at “The Next Big Thing in Licens- ing.” Meanwhile, “Modern Licensing Solutions,” set for 10:30 a.m. on Feb. 4, will examine some of the diferent initiatives that authors’ societies have undertaken in their response to new and emerging business models.

13. The Art Of The Synch

The ability of a well-placed synch to cut through today’s fragmented, multiplatform business is a vital tool in building artist profiles, often on a global level. To discover the nuances of pitching and getting one’s music to the right people, head to the “Sync It or Leave It!” panel at 4 p.m. on Feb. 2, where Nike music supervisor JT Grifith and Activision Blizzard VP of music afairs Tim Riley will be among the music su- pervisors sharing their knowledge. The chance to put theory to practice will follow at 10 a.m. on Feb. 3 at the “Global Sync & Brands Summit,” where preregistered labels, publishers and artists will participate in a two-hour round-table pitching session to music supes from globally renowned brands and agencies, including Nike, Microsoft, Ubisoft and Brand X.

14. A Smattering Of Showcases

While hosts a wealth of live music, MIDEM boasts only a modest amount of per- formances for its business-minded attendees. A trip to Cannes in February typically means meetings throughout the day and networking over drinks in the evening and into early morning. But MIDEM does ofer the third edition of its MIDEM Festival, a series of 40 shows by a wide variety of artists spread across four days. The show times are split between afternoon and evening performances. “Music at Noon” will have music every day from 11:45 a.m. to 2:45 p.m. Artists lined up for Saturday and Sunday repre- sent countries throughout Europe. Monday’s noon session is titled “The Aussie BBQ” and presented by Sounds Australia, a joint venture of the Australasian Performing Right Assn., the Australasian Mechanical Copyright Owners Society and the Australia Council, the Australian government’s arts funding arm and advisory board. The “Night Sessions” will focus on a diferent country on each of three nights: Taiwanese WorldMags.netartists on Saturday, Korean K-pop acts on Sunday and Malaysian artists on Monday. 0 JANUARY 25, 2014 | WWW.BILLBOARD.BIZ 49 WorldMags.net SPECIAL FEATURE
