Good things and bad things about been in a band

Alright everyone first post of the new year, if you have not read any of my blog posts before, I write about random subjects I do not have a set theme with my blog, so lets get started.

This will only be a small post but I will tell you a few of my thoughts about being in a band.

THE GOOD

• Hanging around with your mates. making music you love.
• Meeting new people and going to new places.
• Being in the recording studio, making an album or EP.
• Being able to express yourself and get your point across.
• Putting your music on the internet so people around the world can listen to you.
• Having t-shirts and cd's made.

THE BAD

• Never having any money.
• People not coming to shows.
• Playing shows with bands you dislike.
• Being over charged at the recording studio.
• People saying they hate your band.
• People downloading your music and not paying for it.
• Playing shows where people do not like your style of music.
• Getting to many t-shirts made and no one buys them.

Well that's all folks hope you enjoyed it, oh a word of advise if you wanna start a band have this in mind, play for fun, write music you love not music you think will make you popular, be yourself.
