Please STOP ignoring your live performance skills. I see far too many musicians focusing only on producing and failing to captivate audiences in person. Do this instead: - Regularly practice your set to ensure a polished performance. - Engage with your audience between songs to create a more personal experience. - Invest time in stage presence and audience interaction techniques. - Seek opportunities to perform live, even in small venues, to gain experience. - Record your performances and review them to identify areas for improvement. The main reason ignoring live performance fails, is that it limits your ability to connect with fans to create those magic moments we all crave. Save your energy for meaningful interactions, hone your live performance skills, and you'll elevate yourself above of being just another artist in the crowd. #liveperformance #performanceskills #thepromu

In this video, I explore the concept of Fan Bias, where extremely dedicated fans can play the roles of both a "Friend" and a "Foe." At times, these passionate supporters resist change. In my experience, the same dynamic applies to loyal customers—they can be strong advocates but may resist changes, becoming vocal critics. As I prepare for a speaking engagement on this topic, I'd love to hear if anyone has non-music related scenarios or examples that align with this notion. #customerexperience #musicbusiness #customerloyalty #classicrock
