The music business is a tough place.. where I'm at anyway.. I'm learning how to hustle
and it ain't easy. Lotsa bands, fewer and fewer venues. When I started this blog I wanted to keep a journal of my learnings
and i haven't stopped learning yet.
#1 - when they all told me years ago to keep believing in myself they were right
#2 - nobody's gonna do anything for you so
be thankful for everything because its a
gift
#3 - listen to the bass player
#4 - grow the thickest hide possible and reinforce it with good faith
#5 - take risks and hope for the best
I play music because I love it and I love
the folks I play it with. Everyone will
always have an opinion.. music is fairly subjective and we all know what we like. I just want it to be as good as it can be. Some folks support you, others don't, so don't
rely on others for continued success. Don't stop promoting cause a quality product is worth it. Life without performing live music would suck, so I'll carry on thank- you, I've still got some stripes to earn......
That's the greatest attitude to have...Keep up the good work...You're a star!
