Red 7 gives musicians tips on how to book a show

Sideshow TragedyLive shows. It's all part of being a musician. And before you become that big shot to have your own booking agent, you gotta book your shows yourself.

Johnny Sarkis from Red 7 has posted an insightful blog on booking your own shows without looking like a dumbass. I booked a show once for the SoManyBands 5th Anniversary. Gotta say, I couldn't do it every day.

So read on everyone, this one's a doozy.

"To all of those bands that understand this simple rule THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. You are what makes America a beautiful place to live in, and when I salute the eagle (which I do nightly) I'm secretly saluting you and all of the members of the opposite (or same sex) that you hook up with on a daily basis for being cool enough to know how to not look desperate."
