MIC is pleased to announce the latest of our partnerships. This time we are partnering with local design firm Bcreative. The result of our partnership will not only be access to some of Brisbane’s graphic designers but three of our Year 12 students are now enrolled at Bcreative for a Certificate IV course in multimedia. This will provide these students with a direct entry to a diploma course upon graduation.
Our English students are writing reviews, interviewing bands and sharing their opinions on all things music on our blog, Dearhead Press. You can catch their work at www.dearheadpress.com
You’ll find it’s quality.
Ten students from MIC are currently volunteering at 4zzz and in the process they will achieve their Certificate III in Media. They will also go on to host the Youth Show on Tuesdays. This is an exciting development for MIC and we wish them all the best. Thank you 4zzz.

SIDESHOW VALLEY PRESS RELEASE
This summer, it’s not safe to leave the garage. Music Industry College brings you a story of love, despair, rock’n’roll rebellion and (plenty of chest hair)- Sideshow Valley. A world where fantasy and reality mix and dreams can come true – just make sure they’re your own. For after the money is spent, the circus leaves town and the music and make-up fades, all you have is your friends and your guitar.
Sideshow Valley follows the talented indie-rock band Trash Massacre as they dream to leave the depressing suburbs for the glamorous rock’n’roll life offered to them by the representatives at Fony Records. But how much will they be willing to pay to have their name up in lights and what price will they put on their souls?
The musical, written by staff and students at MIC, was a collaborative effort and puts a new spin on the tired and traditional school musical.
Date: 11/11/11
Time: 6pm, 8pm and 9:30pm
Venue: Metro Arts Theatre
Cost: $10
Tickets available from the MIC office 3852 3074 or info@mic.org.au
