remembering a youtuber who was like i'm gonna become a DJ in a week on a lark.

he got a lot of angry mail for that :blobcatlaugh:

the meta commentary on that was that it only worked because he alraedy had 5 million youtube subscribers and had a friend who was already a world booked DJ. and basically its not learning to use the mixer that takes 12 years so much as the standard entertainment industry bullshit that is trying to get marked as valid so you can actually get jobs

@icedquinn yup. A variation: I remember India's pioneering modern music band saying they struggled to put out their second album, even after a successful first album - because the record industry doesn't care about music (!), they only care about numbers and most second albums don't do well.
