Folks you can't imagine how much I appreciate all this feedback. I want to thank you all and it will never be forgotten.
I never gave either the retirement community nor the venue without music a thought. Excellent ideas.
I used to play in a band with a friend from SanJose Ca and they have music at all the pizza places.
Seeing that I'm willing, at this point, to play for fun and to get known I thought I also get the word out that I'll play for benefits to help raise money for what ever reason.
I've had some excellent suggestions for moving forward.





this is a topic that affects all of us. I'm glad to see it get some discussion time. This software has enabled many of us to make the music we have wanted to make for years, but couldn't until now. The million dollar question that arises next is: "NOW what do I do with this new capabilty?"

Obviously, using it for fun and extra income is a good first response to that question... but as you are finding, there are obstacles. It's good to create this searchable message archive that may help others analyze their own situations and determine what music venues might be available in their communities.

I'd like to see a forum dedicated to the topic of gigging with BIAB. It is a very broad topic, and it currently gets a lot of activity, but it tends to be scattered all over the website so that it isn't easy to find the info when you need it.
