Musician Forum - Band Discussion Board - BandMix

The industry has changed, it's evolving. Every day there is someone new and a whole new means to business. So, How? How do you even get your foot in the door to a industry that has no doors? How do you even learn to walk when there's no time to crawl? How do you sell albums to the public that doesn't like your shoes? I just need an in, I need to line up auditions with bands who need me.
