This week Blasko and Mike talk about part timing your music career, thanks to a question from a new listener. This is gonna be killer, so let’s get mental! ------------ Hi, I just found out about your show and have been binge-listening to it, really great stuff! I’m 20 and I’ve been trying to get a band off the ground since high school. This is finally the year that I’m going to make it happen because I’ve finally found some dedicated people and we’re hoping to have an EP out and start to play shows by the end of the year. However, I’m also a college student pursuing a promising career in Computer Science. Apart from something like making DAW plugins for a living or working remote, it’s unlikely that these two worlds will play nice with each other. I think more and more people are interested in the idea of a part-time music career, with revenue drying up in the industry and Misha of Periphery coming out and saying that it’s basically a break-even gig, etc. I think there can be advantages, even; when you’re making six figures as a software developer you have a lot more money to invest in your band, for example. Am I completely off base for thinking that it’s possible to pull something like this off? Thanks for taking the time to help me out.
