RE: (ENG/DEU) Playing for Free? Why It Might Hurt (or Help) Your Music Career

I believe that any performer has to learn and develop their craft. But they also need to learn how to perform to a live audience. And playing for free or for expenses is a great way to do that.
Also, free performances have hidden benefits. Because as well as fine tuning your act, you can build a following. Then use the size of your social media crowd and newsletter list as a bargaining tool with venue owners.

Exactly. And you learn so much playing live you can't learn at home.
