Well, I don't really give a god damn about touring, I really don't care about getting paid to make music, and I really don't give a shit if people I've never met heard it. The main reason I like to play music is to hear something that I wrote recorded that I can listen to in my own time. My band is going to be ready to start playing shows soon (like, I have been asking people about it) and I am kind of curious about the experience, I only did it one time when I was a senior in high school, but I suspect that it won't really be worth the trouble and have a feeling I will probably get bored of it eventually.

I really have no idea how I would even go about making money off my music in the first place, honestly. Have you ever read any of the articles that get posted on this site about bands on major labels? The only people that are really living comfortably off music are the top of the pops... even people who get played on the radio are typically poor and I can make more money than them in a year working some shitty entry level job.

As far as your assertion that the ethic I'm citing is dead, I disagree, though it's not exactly popular.
