Fantastic ideas as always everyone.

I find marketing such a hard concept today. So many things are given away for free, I'm not sure how to turn a profit, or even recoup my expenses. Music is free, noone buys CDs anymore. Clubs expect you to play for "exposure". Even musicals hire half an orchestra at 1/3rd the standard rate. T-shirts maybe. What do people buy? Maybe I'll start my own fragrance, "eau de troubadour".

I'll stop ranting now. I ordered a few piano songbooks of easy pop songs, and I'm thinking of organizing a trio (Flute (me), Violin, Cello). We'll just read the piano parts so hopefully I won't have to write out individuals. Fingers crossed this leads to something.
