@Geoffberner With the disclaimer that I don't know you or your sitch, I think musicians are back where I was in my 20's, which is like a generation ago - we promoted ourselves by walking into bars with our demo tape, by pestering everyone we knew, knocking on the doors of schools & institutions, playing for pennies... some of the people I played with made it pro, most of us didn't. The brief window where musicians could use social media/web for this has closed & probably isn't coming back.
