Topic: BECOMING FAMOUS/ A COCKTAIL?
Is there a cocktail to become famous? Or is it all SHEER LUCK?
One of the most fantastic trips I made in the USA was, what I call the BLUES TOUR.
We started to find the remains of route 66.
CHICAGO - ST. LOUIS - MEMPHIS - NASHVILLE - NEW ORLEANS, yes all MUSIC CITIES.
I have seen bands playing and performing a lot better than the "average" mainstream band.
WHY IS IT SO DIFFICULT TO BECOME FAMOUS?
We all had our dreams to be famous as guitarist, singer, but nothing happened.
THAT IS THE REASON OF THE QUESTION.
- you are very very good on guitar.
- your band and you have a musical input, and as band you play great stuff + chemistry.
- each member is skilled in what he does.
WHAT ABOUT BEING DISCOVERED? It is probably easier today with myspace, youtube compared to 10 years ago.
DO ARTISTS STILL SEND A CD WITH MUSIC TO RECORD COMPANIES?
AS BAND DO YOU CONTACT BARS WHERE YOU CAN PLAY?
In fact is it LUCK or HARD LABOR? OR BOTH?
- MY GUITAR PLAYS EVERY STYLE = BLUES, ROCK, METAL, so I NEED TO LEARN HOW TO PLAY IT.
