About this ebook
Being realistic is indeed crucial when it comes to booking your first gig. While it's natural to dream big and imagine yourself playing in front of a massive crowd, it's important to remember that starting small is often the best way to build your reputation and gain valuable experience.
This book will show you how to establish a good foundation to getting your band out of the basement or garage and into the venues.
