How does a single musician..?!


Question: get started with a musical career? I can understand having a band.. finding small shows//openings.. and playing at them until you're recognized.. then move onto bigger things. but.. how do you go from a single guitarist who makes amazing music in his room.. to a single guitarist who makes amazing music for millions of people? Just.. how do I START? Is it the same as when you have a band? Just find small shows//opening acts?

Start playing your amazing music for people.
Start (yes you know what's coming) a Myspace profile & offer songs/samples.
Start your own website & do the same.
Take some recordings & go get some demo's made for you to distribute (free)
find clubs with open mike-nights & start playing in front of live audiences.
find your way into the music scene & schmooz ruthlessly (it ain't how good you play the music, but how good you play the crowd)
promote yourself shamelessly at every opportunity
DO NOT build a small, but powerful transmitter (parts available at radio shack) to play your music on the public radio bandwidths, that would be illegal & likely land you in jail!
