I'd start with a law degree with an emphasis on entertainment law -

If you want to be a booking agent and not a talent agent it's a whole different thing.

Which is your interest?

Hi, Marcus!

Do you already have a college degree? If so, what's it in, please?

I would suggest taking things one step at a time.

Thanks!
