As a young artist you want to perform really well so you’ll get more fans.
You’re playing this show so the next one will be bigger.
And then at the next gig there ARE more people. It worked.
Rinse and repeat, right?
Maybe for a while.
If the purpose of this show is always to make the next show bigger, a couple things are inevitable…
-The joy of the show will eventually get lost.
-You will come to the crossroads of bigger and better…realizing they are not the same road.
