"trials and tribulations of booking journal" - anyone ?

[J.Paul]

I'm thinking about making a booking journal...

It might be similar to the Tour Journals I've done but more interactive ('cause we all deal with the same BS)....

My concern is that it would just be a thread(s) full of complaining.

It's also possible that what I'm experiencing in Nashville is completely unique and unrelatable to anyone else ~

the last time I booked myself (without major agency support) I was 17, underage, and not supposed to be playing clubs anyways so I don't actually have a "level then and now" comparison of the yin and yang of it.

 

Is anyone interested in this?

wow

holy cow - that looks like ass already....

so now I have to invest in MORE of my time for the coding and links and everything to make the my signature look right??

Not off to a good start.

I'm definitely interested! Whether it's relatable or not, I'm sure it will be an interesting read. Your last journal certainly was.

The best thing to do with the signature is to just delete it and create a new one. The coding is too different, I think. They aren't really repairable, I don't think.

Ditto! I greatly enjoyed your tour journal and the insight it offered on a variety of levels.

Here's ya go...Kill yourself and spend 10000 hours on the phone to book 4 gigs for $50-$150 dollars:) Supply and demand around here. Only reason to be here is if you're a part of or trying to be a part of the Nashville Biz Machine...ANYWHERE else, you can make more money gigging if that's what it's about...I complain about the $3-$400 a gig I make in my band because of the van miles beating me up etc...To each his own!!

yep

that's pretty much it in a nutshell

I like stories.........i see that anyone can learn a thing or two from anyone on the site. I dont get to play in your location of music heaven J.Paul, so your take on some stuff could be valuable to others......just gotta decide if you wanna spend the time doing it. Curious to how your relationship with Gwen is these days.....been kinda quiet around that camp these days. I like the others enjoyed your touring journal also........
