It’s a Big World

  • Where do you want to live?
  • Why?
  • What do you know about the music scene there?
  • Can you make a living as a musician there?
  • How?
  • How much of a living do you need to make to live there?
  • Do you want to travel as part of your music career? Where?
  • Do you want to travel for fun? Where and how much will that cost?
  • Where do other musicians like you live?
  • Should you live in that same place or should you live somewhere else and be unique?
  • Where do fans of what you do live? Do you have to live there too? Do you want to?
  • How can you reach them directly or, how in the world will they find you?
