If you are making smart decisions and doing the right things in the correct order and dedicating yourself to something, the success is inevitable.
Matt SnellI get a chance to see new bands and new music. I've seen a lot of amazing local bands, bands that I think 'have what it takes', that they could become the next big thing. More often than not it doesn't happen.
Matt SnellThe reality is people are going to steal the record instead of buying it. It's kind of a cancer in the industry where people will just use a streaming service and then won't buy the record.
Matt SnellIt costs lots of money to make records. It costs lots of money to generate artwork and manufacture and then ship things to people. If it keeps getting stolen, then the band has less ability to come to your town and perform. And that is ultimately what all of us want to do.
Matt SnellMy mom was a sub teacher her whole life. My aunt was a teacher her whole life. So that wasn't hard to do. Performing in front of people started when I was a child. My mom ran a theatre. So we were around it. Getting up in front of people has never been an issue. So I think once you get over that part of it, I'm happy to teach anybody anything.
