On Stage #4 - No scammers, thanks
4. Don't play a show that requires you to pre-sell tickets and then turn in your money to a show-runner. These "pay to play" gigs are obvious scams, easily debunked, and don't benefit anyone but the people taking your money. You're better off paying for a room yourself and hiring someone to work the door for you-- it will invariably cost you less than the stack of cash you would have handed over to the Pay to Play scammers like Afton (formerly Big Time.)
Even limited to my experiences, this list is nowhere near complete. I planted it as one of the first pages when I began this blog with the very first handful of points from the quickest surface skim of my gray matter. It will continue to grow.
