Hi Lilian,

My name is Jared and I’m in a rock band right now but we need a drummer, and we need to start getting some gigs. Do you have any advice for us because we really need it?      

Please write back,

Hi Jared,

Thanks for your email. Just know that it is never easy to get a project off the ground but I think it is important to work on the fundamentals.

First, make sure that all your band members are truly dedicated to the project and have good attitudes! Anything less will just drag the project down and use up too much energy. Second, make sure all the musicians are good. Improvements can always be made along the way, but you have to have musicians that can at least play.
