As former Standup Comedian, we had a running Rule that if at LEAST 10 people showed up the SHOW (and the JOKES) MUST GO ON. And sometimes I have played to an audience of TWO--including ME!!
This is huge man! I've never closed for Sonic Youth, but it makes sense that 100% of people don't see the work you keep to yourself. It only takes one and then the snowball comes. Cheers for this a good kick up the ass.
Really great advice. I am looking at these beginning stages as a way to figure out what works. I much rather figure this out now at 100 versus 1000. The people will come - I need to be ready to serve them when they arrive.
PUT OUT YOUR BEST WORK EARLY AND OFTEN

So true, and very apt seeing as I just got my 12th subscriber today! 😆
This is great advice!
