For anyone who's skeptical of this method, since I myself haven't done a lot of touring - I ain't the only one doing it. Head over to the Indepreneur Facebook group and ask around. They've got some pretty phenomenal results with this technique.

I book bands as a kiss tribute band then when I get there I play all original music. Great opportunity to get your music out there!

The more complicated thing is if you're doing a tour outside of your own country. That's something I have never heard anyone talking about even if they state that one shouldn't make a record deal with a label.

Really cool! Thank you. I would say also to target a band who is already touring and ask to open for them?

What makes it hard as an independent artist, it's hard to advertise, y'know, you as an artist you're working on your music but now you have to also manage on how can you make yourself known and famous and you have to maintain it, it can get a little frustrating...

But still, as I am starting, I'm still gonna be an independent artist... I am studying about it, on how and what are the things I have to manage and give time for me to work better and easier...

Signing through labels, I've found that they'll control you, and for me, I know what I wanna do and I don't want anyone control it...

Sure that record labels can make u famous almost instantly, but y'know it has a price, they're the ones who controls your profit, your work of music and it can be also your image, on how you are gonna appear to the crowd...

But I'm not saying that record labels are evil, but I think I may not be comfortable of the pressure I can face during my work with it, and I don't wanna make music stressful, coz I just wanna have fun...

The best thing that I am always thinking of is just give yourself time to think and feel of what you wanna do, study things that questions you, make simple actions that can benefit the situation you're in and your goals, and just enjoy and make it happen. Have trust in yourself. Always find the best way possible, don't make it too hard. Enjoy it, make it a part of your life and play with it.

when you're on the ground, just rent out AirBnB flats/warehouses and rock out like that.

I will love to know how to use the tools for facebook adds can you please show us? . I know how to use basic facebook adds but dont know how to re-direct to my public target.

This covers the basics, but let's get into more specifics:

OK, So, coincidentally I grew up in the metro east area (Jerseyville) and I lived in Springfield for 20 years, and I now live in Chicago. I also love symphonic metal and prog (ps, I have a video comparing Tarja and Floor that got super controversial, check it out if you want). I can tell you that Symphonic Metal and Prog plays better in Chicago than it does in Springfield or even in the metro east. So, how do you find out what cities/scenes have that bigger audience for the style? Because, I think that's why labels and national acts target markets like that. Playing prog/symphonic metal just isn't well received in these rural areas that would rather hear "FREEBIRD!"
