I asked folks what was wrong with the local music scene. Here’s the results from those comments. I didn’t make this stuff up I talked with 230 people and these results are based on the amount of complaints for each category. Food for thought. Take it or leave it. In order of importance:
1. Poor show promotion
2. Unpaid gigs.
3. Questionable venues. Sticky floors and poor facilities.
4. Booking too many bands.
5. Other musicians’ bad behavior.
6. Taking a percentage of merch sales.
7. Bad sound.
8. Talent buyers you can’t contact.
9. Lack of variety.
10. Clubs regularly booking their own friends’ bands.
