In a perfect world, musicians would totally support each other and help each other out.
I heard tell thats how the Seatlle grunge scene came to explode. More of a communal attitude with the music scene. Underground punk rock brotherhood type of feel to it and all that.
Of, course... that could be totally false... but thats the rumor.
It was more than a rumour, that's exactly how the grunge movement came to be. Rent the movie Hype! for more info.

Rarely happens though.
This is precisely the reason I started this thread. Too many expect to get gigs and draw people and get paid yet they won't be a part of the local scene. So they hang out in chat rooms. Get off the computer, go practice, and go see a local band, otherwise you're a leech.
