>>2967955Solid plan right there. I need to start reaching for more than a photo pass myself, and start interviewing/taking photos of the band off stage because that's an easy way of actually getting published in a physical medium.
There is a little bit of money in concert photography without touring, just hard to come by. I've only doing paid gigs on and off for the last three months and have made $950. It's a fun second source of income, and I get to meet a lot of great people.
