thought $100 was legit money to drive to Cincinnati for a gig
accepted payment from the venue in the form of deer steaks and deer jerky
thought getting a manager would solve all the problems
thought it would be ok if the drummer was just so-so
didn’t have gear insurance because $12/month was just too spendy
kept doing the same things we had always done for way too long instead of identifying how an artist career evolves, matures and shifts, and therefore changing how time and energy got spent.
Before we knew better we would brush off good advice from experienced people because we thought we knew better.
