Future Jobss (concerts, show, guitar)

musiclover3210 · 05-19-2008, 01:41 PM

I was just wondering if there is anyone here who wants to persue a carrier in music/already has one. I'd like to but my problem is I don't know all that many. Like, how many different jobs in music are there? I know there is the general musician, composer, conductor and famous musicians. But what else? I was thinking of making a list for all those as lost as me. Anyone?

There are tons of options. For example i am going into audio engineering. So much needs to be done for the music industry. Such as setting up for concerts, sound checks, session players, and mannnnny more.

There is also all the work to be done at studios such as audio engineering (again), receptionist, manager, etc.

You could also be a tour booker or promoter. Both are important parts of the music industry as well.

guitar/bass/drum techs. Roadies. Lighting and visual tech. Audio tech. Just think about how much it takes to put on a live show and every job that needs to be done to get the live show on stage. Quite a bit to do really.

I never thought about it. Now it seems really overwhelming O.o
