[Harp-L] Fame, fortune and the professional musican

[Damien Masterson <dzm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It's hard to take this seriously, but I'll try.

If you want to become famous, don't become a professional musician.

If you want to become a professional musician, do it for a living.

If you want to be a famous professional musician:

1 - Make your living in music (a few days is fine), then:

2 - Kill the President of the United States

  Now, granted, you won't necessarily be famous for your music, but  
neither are 99% of the famous musicians out there.

  Other than that, buy a lottery ticket and pray very hard, because  
it's not in your hands.

Practicing might help. but not necessarily.
