Do we have some ringers here? Answer these questions vis-a-vis your "musical career," and feel free to give explanatory embellishment (for instance, for magazine/TV/radio questions, was the press outlet/show local/national/international?, etc.), drop names, etc..
Have you ever:
Been interviewed or quoted by a magazine or newspaper?
Been interviewed for, or lent memorabilia or other source materials to, a filmaker or TV show making a film/TV show about music?
Been interviewed for, or lent memorabilia or other source materials to, an author writing a book about music?
Appeared in a film about music, as yourself.

Remember, all of the above must be in the context of your "musical career." So, for instance, if I've been interviewed or quoted in a magazine on some legal issue because I'm a lawyer, that doesn't count.
Go!
(I'll answer for myself later as a bump.)
