Thank you the ideas. I am putting a ten lesson course together about music and the music industry.  Your conversation lesson is good baiss for that. The only real difference is they will interview real musicans and real venues and finish with a live performance.

Great ideas here.
As a follow up activity I adapted your idea of the record company, and asked students to do a presentation about an idea they had for a festival (after having read and done a few things with this article on Glasto from the BBC learning English bit- http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/learningenglish/newsenglish/britain/su... )
I let them run free with their imagination, giving this rough framework-
4 + artists (2 from those listened to earlier)
A location
How much does it cost?
How much are artists paid?
Is there anything extra? A circus, theatre, children's area, a theme...

They work in groups of about 2-4 and then present their idea to the rest of the class.
