To tour the world and see the fans sing our songs. We also want to positively change the planet for the better.

To change the landscape back to when music was fun and good.
Dance. Have fun. It's music, not surgery.
Amazing. We crave attention just like the rest of the millennials. We just do it with a mic.
Reality now isn't great for musicians. Streaming doesn't yield much money so you need to be good live and tour. Sell merch. Artists deserve to be paid more for streams. Services like YouTube, Spotify and Tik Tok need to pony up way more than they are.

Not as much as we should but we will when things get back to normal.
Patience and resourcefulness! It won't be overnight. And you have to know how to get your stuff out there. There's so much music and info people are being bombarded by every day. Breaking through that is a skill.
