If you are in a band and are under 18, especially if you are 14-16 years old you face a whole world of problems that don't exist for many older bands... booking gigs is so much harder when your audience and mates are so young... Even getting to your gigs proves difficult!

BUT this is 2017 and the rules have been ripped up.. It's no longer the case that you need to book a venue in order to bring your crowd/following to see and support you. You can now gig anywhere, anytime and engage any or all of your audience via the new live streaming social media apps.

Facebook live means you can gig from your room, a rehearsal studio, a carpark or even a school! 

What worked for bands you grew up watching are different for the next generation due to the emergence of this technology and social acceptance of live platforms.

You can re-write the rule book and then rip it up and start again... you have control so rather than copy the olden days... embrace the new opportunities!

If you have read this... do something now... instagram me... its my new email... do it now.. what have you got to lose?
