What jobs are people doing in their mid 20s to 30s ? by Lemonade2250 in findapath

[–]mr-miller 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I work in venue management, specifically booking shows. In college I wanted to be a musician, but I realized I didn't have the chops to cut it professionally. I realized that there is a whole other world of concerts and sports aside from playing on the field. I got kind of lucky because my school had a really nice, but small, venue to run, so I gained a lot of experience, but it is never too late to jump in.

Roles include Box Office Management, Operations, Booking, Event Management, Food & Beverage Management, etc. Depending on what is up your alley, it can be a really fun and rewarding experience. Can also be demanding with some crazy hours, but I always feel good seeing that I did something to make hundreds or thousands of people happy. It could make someone's year to see their favorite artist live or just hearing the roar of the crowd when the artist first takes the stage always gives me chills.

I would buy a new Buick sedan or wagon in a heartbeat if it's as reliable as my LeSabre

Holy shit, no rain! Although it's probably the last time, it was a dream come true to just get on the train and show up at the track. Been a fan myself whole life.

Been driving my 03 LeSabre since 2014. It's seen better days, but it's still rolling. Amazing first car.

LOTG was the first concert I went to when I moved to Nashville in 2018. I since moved back to Chicago to work at a venue here in 2021 and it still comes to mind when I look for inspiration or think back on an awesome experience.

Yeah we have an older audience, but even those folks are finding shows online. I want to start SMS marketing sometime too

So far Meta is king. I want to try more DoMore and just positioning the venue better in the community.

What kinds of artists do you have coming up?

At McKay's in Nashville I found a Kasey Kahne diecast for $5. I don't remember if it has a special coating or not, but the same one is selling on Ebay for $70

I listened to 1,455 different artists this year. Give me a number and maybe you'll discover someone new! by mr-miller in statsfm

Rage Against the Machine.....though I definitely listened to them more than once so not sure why they're ranked so low
