With music, ALL musicians have a picture what it's going to be like in their head when they play their first gig or start playing live. Big stages, adoring audiences and a rock star mansion. The fact of the matter is this isn't the case.
It is a business and if money is important to you forget what you want to play and start playing what people wanna hear (which I know you're already doing Tommy!).
The next thing is forget being just a guitarist if money is important. It's probably 20% of the role. If money means something, start being the owner of a business marketing a product. You!
Start thinking of extra ways to make income and marketing yourself more than the next player. There are a reasons agents exist. To do this!
Being a musician is more than playing one gig a week down the dog and duck which will pay a weeks wages.
I'm not addressing you here, Tommy or any of the forum! Just general comments! There is loadsa money out there for good musicians. It's just loads of people don't want to work for it on a daily basis like most people do with a full time job (in my experience).
