do you guys play any gigs?
because if you dont do! its realy fun!

i play in pubs and stuff with my band and its great! if they like you they even give you money!

by the way pinball wizard is a beasty cover!
we do the trooper by iron maiden and that allways goes down prity well!
also try doing your own stuff! u never know u might make up something that u can sell!
we made some recordings and we sell them at gigs! makes some easy money to spend on amps and stuff!

keep it rocking!

Yeah, how great is it to play your guitar, have people love you, and make money from it - really?

It's even better when you're open to all areas of music, and know how to use your musical talent to have fun AND make good money all kinds of ways...

writing, recording, playing originals, playing covers, wedding and corporate bands, playing coffee shop acoustic shows, playing bass, teaching, selling CDs, selling singles on itunes, doing a tour with a band (even if short), doing parody songs for radio and tv, writing for movie soundtracks, playing benefits for good causes you believe in, etc

... all of which are great, lots of fun, wonderful learning experiences and make you $$$ to keep your musical career going.

If you truly love guitar and love music, you'll learn how to use that love to make your life better, have more fun, take your musical skill far beyond what you'd normally do, and make you money all at the same time. But if you only play your obscure originals in your bedroom and shun the world, it will be nothing but a fun, hidden hobby. But that might be all you want though too.
