Make it big

guitarnik	Date: October 17, 2005 @ 4:36 PM How many people on this site are actually trying to make it big with their music? I'm trying, but it's not a cake walk. Just seein' if y'all do it for fun, or want to do it for money. Peace.
Traf	Date: October 19, 2005 @ 11:10 AM It's a difficult one this.. I s'pose it all depends on what you mean by make it big.. You might mean rich and famous, or just famous, or just rich, or just happy with where you've reached. I known some very 'famous' and 'rich' and 'made it big' musicians in my life, and there's a lot of sad cases amongst them. It's not always a recipe for blissful happiness... If you do have your dream and make it big (and I wish you all the best with what you want) just make sure you have fun doing it.. and if you don't... have fun trying..
Distilled1	Date: October 19, 2005 @ 11:13 AM it's not the destination, but the trip Traf sums it up for me have fun with what you do and you have made it big
blueyes2112	Date: November 3, 2005 @ 6:56 AM for the love of sharing my music! that is the only reason, if anything else were to come of it then fantastic, but i'm quite happy sharing my experiences and life through music!
psypig	Date: November 3, 2005 @ 7:14 AM I would love to make it big. In fact, i'd sell my own grandma to make it big. But it depends on your idea of big. Right now, my idea of big is being able to play in other cities and have people remember some of your songs. I'm involved in music because i enhoy it but i'm constantly looking for ways to earn money through music.
hantu	Date: November 3, 2005 @ 7:17 AM just for fun! ... if i make even £1 from my music i will have achieved more than i ever imagined
southwing	Date: November 3, 2005 @ 8:06 AM I'll agree with blueyes 2112. I'm just tryin to find ears for my stuff. I've been writting songs since 1971. I've played live a lot, thousands of differrnet bands, recorded a whole lot, beat on doors, submitted songs, beat on drummers...etc. But now, just to find someone who'll listen to my stuff is 'fanfrickintastic!'I just can't picture Hillary Duff, opening an envelope, reading my name, than giving me a big kiss and an award.
GeneHilbert	Date: November 3, 2005 @ 10:04 AM Work, write, perform, record and promote. Give it your best shot.... and come what may.
GreatGooglyM...	Date: November 3, 2005 @ 2:00 PM I make the kind of music I like. If it sells some albums, then okay. I'm not aiming to big record sales, but more to musicianship and virtuosity.
shadowself	Date: November 3, 2005 @ 2:22 PM No way. I make music as my diary, I give it away, and sometimes I help others with their music. I don't want to be famous because I cherish my privacy and anonymity.
hantu	Date: November 3, 2005 @ 2:27 PM yeh that too... i would never be able to handle being famous
AgentMGD	Date: November 3, 2005 @ 6:39 PM already had my moment in the spotlight ...not a good experience.
MeddlingIdiot	Date: November 7, 2005 @ 9:30 PM i doubt i could but if i did that would be SO cool.
hantu	Date: November 7, 2005 @ 9:44 PM don;t think i would be bogwrsx actukalyy
deerok	Date: November 9, 2005 @ 2:24 PM i just like to perform...it's not money i want, it's the rush...also, i'm not sure if i'd want a lot of other people to know who i was wherever i was...as much as i enjoy spending time with others, i also enjoy being alone
IndigoGirl	Date: November 9, 2005 @ 5:25 PM I doubt I could, and I really doubt I could handle being famous, but I'd love to be able to earn a living through music, in whatever way, because it's what I love to do and then I don't have to do anything else.
hantu	Date: November 9, 2005 @ 5:34 PM ..erm i think what i was tryin to say was i don't think i could be bothered to be famous
Intergalacti...	Date: November 9, 2005 @ 6:46 PM My idea of making it big is playing shows around the country (not necessarily big ones) and making people happy with my music the same way it does me. If the opportunity arose I probably would go the whole shebang and have so many million for a reocrd however that is not what I'm set out to do. My dream would be to make enough money from my first point to keep living and be happy
Intergalacti...	Date: November 9, 2005 @ 6:48 PM Agent what did you do?
