| From the Where2sing.com forum: MA: Good Topic. I think that for myself, alot of the music that I write I love to sing it in front of an audience be it family, friends or complete strangers but its very hard to sell your band/solo artist to a venue with original songs unless you also offer,
a) A cover band with a few added originals
b) An already established an proven large following of 'fans'
c) Your friends come to see you and pay a cover charge stating what band you are there to see once arriving at the door (currently offered at The Espy in St Kilda). But this option also means that you also have to organise at least 2 other bands, which is easy to arrange but hard at times to manage.
I for one would much rather go to my local and listen to a band sing it's own songs. If I want to hear covers then I will pop into my local karaoke. :)
