Hey guys...
Ok, the other night, my band and I were playing at a small place downtown in my city. After we had done a set, a guy approached me, saying that he liked what he had heard, and that he was interested in talking with us about management and representation. Ok, so, my question is, what should I ask this guy, or what should I look for in him, as a manager? He told me today on the phone that he was interested in getting our music to more people, and getting it to people that could take it further. He also said that if he couldn't give us what we wanted and needed, that he would make sure he got us to the people who could. So, I thought that sounded pretty good. Has anyone had any experiance in things like this? This is the first time i've ever had to deal with this(seeing as i'm only 21), and i'd like some opinions on what red flags to look for, etc...Thanks for any info or help you guys may have!!!
