Music Industry Discussion

Just heard of an expensive "opportunity."
If you've been invited to India to tour and give concerts and various performances . . . media coverage and all . . . forget it..
It's an expensive time-waster . . .
All claims are apparently highly distorted.
50 artists have already paid an expensives air fare to India to find out . . .
. that air fare included amplifiers and instruments . . . .
One 10 minute local interview (big deal); and one or 2 performances - at best. Most musicinas gave one performance only.
The word on the street is that the person who is running the site, Oliver Sean is not too legitimate . . .
. . . lotta unhappy campers associated with that fellow, apparently . . .

A fool and his money...............

Well....if he's such a fool, then how did he get that money in the 1st place?

Actually, you shouldn't hold it against these guys,
I checked out the site myself - it was professionally done, and it looked very legit.
.
The folks that went were not fools.
This could have been you, guys . . .
They we'ren't fools, just victims, ok?
.
On the flip side, You guys need to NOT be afraid to seize opportunity when it presents itself.
There are legitimate opportunities which thousands and thousands of successful musicians have responded to - and thereby climbed the ladder of success.
Do not be afraid to take a chance - jusr thoroughly research it first . . .
.
Nothing ventured - nothing gained.
Something ventured - something gained.
Seize opportunity; just know how to recognize true opportunities, first.
