A reply from musician

今朝、Facebookで音楽業界の人たちで話題になっていた投稿。すっごくするどいことを言っている。ミュージシャン、自営業者はじめフリーランスの皆さん。無料でプロモーションとか、ギャラなしで、なんていう話に騙されてはいけない。そこからちゃんとした仕事につながったことはないと断言できる。このミュージシャンからの返事はすごくするどいですね。

ホント、こういう仕事してると情報をもらうだけもらって消えたTVの人とか、代理店の人とかホント多くって…考えさせられます。また自分がそういうことを人にしないように自戒をこめて。

A Craigslist Advert :
We are a small & casual restaurant in downtown Vancouver and we are looking for solo musicians to play in our restaurant to promote their work and sell their CD. This is not a daily job, but only for special events which will eventually turn into a nightly event if we get positive response. More Jazz, Rock, & smooth type music, around the world and mixed cultural music. Are you interested to promote your work? Please reply back ASAP.

Happy new year! I am a musician with a big house looking for a restauranteur to promote their restaurant and come to my house to make dinner for my friends and I. This is not a daily job, but only for special events which will eventually turn into a nightly event if we get positive response. More fine dining & exotic meals and mixed Ethnic Fusion cuisine. Are you interested to promote your restaurant? Please reply back ASAP.
