Thanks to all for your BD wishes. Had a GREAT one !



Considering some of the recent remarks re: techies here, I'm wondering if I should take this as a compliment or ?

Seriously though, to be successful in the music biz these days (especially if you're a one man band) requires wearing a variety of hats. The challenge is truly a 'balancing' act.

1) Musicianship
* keyboard chops
* developing a 'good' ear (ear training)
* artistic creativity/spontaneity
* music theory

2) Entertainment skills
* working the crowd
* humor
* professionlism
* flexibility

3) Technical (techie :eek
* keeping up with the vast array of ever changing music hardware/software available to us: arranger keyboard features, music production software, etc
