Beggs To Differ: R&J's Southeast regional Eric Beggs has left the label to join Rodeowave Entertainment, launched last month (CABN 5/2) and anchored by music from Phil Vassar. Beggs will handle the same region for Rodeowave, reuniting with Bill Macky, his former boss at Stroudavarious. Previous promotion stops for Beggs include Nashville imprints RCA, Capitol, Nine North and Show Dog. Reach him here. R&J President Bill Catino says he wishes Beggs luck and tells Country Aircheck a search is on for both a Southeast and a newly created Northeast regional. Interested candidates should send material to VP/Promotion Tim McFadden here.
