one of these days here soon ill achieve my goal of owning a venue in every major city in each state. the real dough in the music business is made by the venues. think about it, ticket sales, drinks, merch, parking, VIP passes and clubs, you name it. though my goal isn't entirely about revenue that's just the sustainability aspect of it. what I really wanna do with these venues is be able to help artists with their tours by offering a fair deal with them. THEY'RE the talent, the reason the venue was able to sell those tickets and get butts in seats so they deserve a more HONEST share of the dough. this would also give me the opportunity to help independent acts on the road by helping to schedule the tour or something. I don't think its usually the venues job to do shit like that but idfc this is a made up scenario so just go along with it.
