My goal when I started out was to get to the point where I could tour a lot and make a living which means getting paid enough to hire my own band travel and end up with a bit of money but I'm still nowhere near that point. Because I didn't have a band and fan base when I started I did everything backward.
We have a project with Unocal here in Los Angeles where we as an environmental organization the oil company and the state all get together to promote the recycling of used motor oil.
