Those
who are in-the-know will tell you that college gigs are one of the best ways to
make money as an emerging artist. Not only to colleges usually offer guaranteed

poor publicity, frustrating sound and electrical setup, last minute venue and
set time changes, and the always endearing frat boys demanding Skynard until
they forget there are other words in the English language. For in depth list of
