I have spent much of life in “the business”, over 50 years man and boy in the performing arts, and I can tell you with great assurance that it is one of the very few professions with a 99.8% failure rate. It you are interested in the fame, or the money, then you may get it, but more likely you won’t, and be one of the 98.8 % who are unemployed in this profession, or like the bulk of the remainder, working as sessions musicians for no recognition and poor to middling pay – some earn enough enough to bring up a family in reasonable way, but few take down top earnings. Trust me, there are better ways to hit your head against a wall. And better ways to live a happy life.
If music is your passion, then none of that counts for anything, and you will do your music, no matter what, because that is your passion, it is why you live, and neither fame nor failure will hold meaning or terror. But if you want to be famous, a star, or rich, then this simply isn’t a reason to be in it, an even if you succeed, you will not be happy, for fame is a fleeting thing, and provides no comfort and no joy, and riches are only a thing one can use or abuse. It is passion and love that make whatever you do fulfilling, and if you love music, and love performing, then you will prosper, even if you never get a solid gig.
So my advice is don’t strive to be a rock star, strive to be a good artist and enjoy and be fulfilled by your work. If you can do that, the the act of getting up on stage becomes unimportant to you, only the joy of letting your instrument speak your heart’s understanding will be, and that way lies a happier life.
