Become A Rock Star In 24 Hours

Become A Rock Star In 24 Hours

I have been asked so many times about "how to get hooked up in the music business." The reality is, I can't "hook you up" anymore than you can! So here's what I know about how become a rock star...and you can do all of this in about 24 hours.

Write Great Fucking Songs

Find Your REALLY SPECIFIC Niche and Stick With It (Christian-Hippie Folk, Nursing Home Piano Tunes, African Metal, whatever)

Get A Good Job...That You Can Leave OR Become Self Employed

Buy Tour:Smart by Martin Atkins and Read It Several Times With Margin Notes

Make A List of Everyone You Know and What THEY Know and How That Can Help You

Make Everyone In The Band Responsible For Something

Use Myspace As Your Website, Not As Your Crutch...No One Likes It

FUCK Email Lists: Use Facebook Instead and Send Personal Messages...NOT FORMS

Devote One Hour A Day To Twitter

Be Authentic!

Promote Something Other Than Music
