When I was first married, my wife was quite impressed with the fact that I graduated from the University of North Texas with a degree in music. I told her to not be too impressed because I knew that I would never get a gig because of a degree. Soon after, on a trip back home to New York City, we were walking through the subway when we stopped to here some musicians set up near a ticket booth. I turned to her and said the players were probably graduates too.
I shouldn’t have joked!
Check out subway records to see what I mean. Here’s an entire record label developed to get the music of street performers recorded and out into the hands of the public. It’s one of those perfect “duhs!” once you hear what’s going on.
The music business is changing before our eyes and there are new opportunities to take advantage of every day. Make sure you take advantage of what’s around you, the wins will be HUGE!
