THE NEW MAXX "UN-OFFICIAL" WEBSITE IS UP!
wAs a start up business in 2007, we've operated solely on the major social networking site known as Myspace.  As the demand for services grew, and more and more questions came up as to who we are and what we do, we decided to take the next step and create our very own website.  Now potential consumers who don't have access to Myspace can see more of what we at MaXXposure are all about. 

What's inside?
Now visitors can read everything about us from what services we provide to upcoming events.  We've also included our entertainment roster to allow promoters and/or event planners access to the hottest talent, local and national, to book for their next event.  Also found inside is a taste of our photo gallery, info on what's going on in the community, and what discussions are featured on the Twin Cities Online Network (TCONetwork). Pretty much what can be found here in the weekly newsletter... except more!

So please, check out our new "un-official" website at www.maxxposuremarketinggroup.com and feel free to fill out the contact section to leave us a note.  Your feedback is appreciated!

TOP PRODUCER SCOTT STORCH HITS ROCK BOTTOM

ssJuly 23, 2008 | Posted By Elgin aka The Host With The Most

MIAMI, Florida (AP) - Just a few years ago, Scott Storch was one of the top producers in pop music, living in a $10.5 million mansion on an exclusive Miami island, driving a phalanx of luxury cars and dating the likes of Paris Hilton and Lil Kim.  Scott Storch's identifiable production sound made him a hot commodity in the music world.  Nowadays, Scott Storch, 34, is missing in action. He owes over $500,000 in real estate taxes and had a warrant out for his arrest when he failed to show up in court in a child-support case last month. He has not had a top 10 hit in three years. He still has his waterfront marble mansion, but his lawyer, Guy Spiegelman, says Storch is attempting to refinance it after a "catastrophic occurrence this year" resulting from "mismanagement." Storch no longer works with his old manager or publicist. He hasn't talked to either of his children in months.
