    Same, I'd have trouble naming 50-60 people I've known throughout my life

    matt is right.

    - sourced by someone who lived in Gainesville at the time the indie/diy scene was booming in Florida and had active hands-on experience with it but ok

    I know the countless bands far more successful than the ones you're thinking or are unable to do this so logically, bands making significantly less money....

    I don't know everything. I'm just stating a fact that is very easily researchable.

    I know maybe 7 people now and that is too much for me.

    Again, that’s a budget issue. It is possible (and happens all the time) that DIY bands make better margins because they’re investing far more shrewdly and efficiently in the first place

    It’s clearly not if you think “bigger band = more money” is a rule of thumb that applies to everything

    And they're still coming away with less money. They still have day jobs.

    And what does this have to do with Gainesville, which is what this quote is referring to

    just because you can’t imagine it doesnt make it untrue. I sold 60 tickets myself in person to people I know in Baltimore for my last show. That’s a small fraction of the number of people I’ve met and still keep up with because of music stuff.

    Yeah but I prefer to imagine you being introduced to the name like, Elizabeth or some shit well into your 20s lol.

    Do you know what “better margins” means

    cause if not then you should not be discussing making or losing money. It’s not about revenue. It’s about scaling your expenses to where they make sense with your revenue. The big problem in the music industry is that larger tours create unrealistic expense barriers for bands to surpass. Especially in LiveNation / Ticketmaster venues with more middlemen mouths to feed. And I do include indie label bands in that.

    her name is even more basic/common/irish than that but I meant I didn't have a clue who she was to establish how long it's been since that scene has been relevant lol

    you could settle this argument real quickly by looking at the lineup of The Fest and comparing how many bands were locals a decade ago and how many they're having to call for reunion shows/fly in dates now. the well ran dry.

    Yes, I do thank you lol. These musicians still return home to day jobs. They do not live off music entirely.
