A few tips that have made some connections for me that otherwise wouldn't have happened. Always carry your gig bag around with you wherever you go. It's a great conversation starter when other musicians see it. Carry it into restaurants, stores, airports, everywhere. Rather than calling around with your hand out why not go hear the bands that do what you do or want to do. Carry your gig bag. You were just at a rehearsal/gig nearby and heard about their band and wanted to check them out because you're into this kind of music. Get it?
