DESCRIPTION
So you want to become a rock star? We’re talking actual rock star – not a metaphor for “finding stardom” at your company, but that little “band thing” you do on the side after putting in your 9-to-5 each day. In this session, we will lead you on a fun and adventurous journey where you can not only learn SharePoint, but springboard into that life of fame and rock stardom that you’ve been dreaming of, using the tools at your disposal during the daily grind. If, by chance, your wildest dreams of becoming a rock star do not come to fruition, you can be rest assured that you can apply what you learn in this session to become a SharePoint rock star. Because its always good to have a backup plan.

THE GREATEST FAKE BAND THE SHAREPOINT SPACE HAS EVER SEEN
INTERESTING FACTS
Only 17.5% of bands are currently utilizing SharePoint
• Surprisingly, 42% of all indie bands• Over 95% of polka bands in the Cincinnati area
49.8% of bands would see productivity increases of 250% or more if they would start using SharePoint
67.3% of all facts are made up on the spot
