Post by: young_drumz on November 15, 2009, 06:15:49 PM
Just a question to ALL the musician out there.....Would you rather be a musician that tours with a specific artist...or a musician that just plays on the actual album???? N which do you think would make more...and benefit you more???

Session drummer gets more money.

Traveling drummer gets more drugs, alcohol and womenz... (unfortunately this sometimes includes Christian artists too).

Your choice.

Depends on where I'm at in life. If I didnt have a day job, then I would choose touring. It would be great to travel the world and share my gift.

its not a hard question to answer, actually a person go both ways to when it comes to job wise but if you talk wat comes with the job like the temptation that when you have to ask your self where are you exactly in your christian walk in life, if your easily tempted all you have to do is not join your self with the crowd but if thats hard to do then, you really have to step back and consult your pastor or your shepard, who ever watches over your soul he or she can better give you advice.  I rather better hot or cold and not lukewarm, meaning im in it all the way or not in it all, no since in playing church, hell is way to hot to play around the edges with.

I think you can be just as tempted in the church as you can playing on a gospel tour....btjm
